Abstract From the Canadian patent

A centrifugal fan in which the cone and wheel have a telescoping relationship to vary the rated capacity of the fan. The mechanism effects the relative movement manually, or by a servo arrangement responsive to system pressure. The telescoping relationship includes an anti-recirculation sleeve on the cone. The wheel and cone can be moved to effect engagement of the cone and the wheel back plate to cut off the fan when, in a parallel arrangement, and to arrest wheel movement after the drive to the wheel has been stopped. In another aspect, the cone and wheel are bodily stationary and a separate movable flow control sleeve is positioned to control flow.
