Abstract

Provided herein are various mobile cooling devices. In some embodiments, a mobile cooling device provided herein includes a base comprising a reservoir and a lid; and a fan assembly dimensioned to fit within the base. In some embodiments, the fan assembly of a mobile cooling device can include a vent configured to divert a portion of airflow toward an electronic component attached to the base. In some embodiments, the electronic component is attached to the bottom of the base.

Claims (33)

1. A mobile cooling device comprising:

a base comprising a reservoir and a lid; and

a fan assembly dimensioned to fit within the base and comprising a vent configured to divert a portion of airflow toward an electronic component attached to the base.

2. The mobile cooling device of claim 1 , wherein the fan assembly and reservoir each comprise a body, the bodies being produced from single molded piece.

3. The mobile cooling device of claim 1 , wherein the fan assembly further comprises an atomizer.

4. The mobile cooling device of claim 3 , further comprising a pump configured to deliver water from the reservoir to the atomizer.

5. The mobile cooling device of claim 4 , wherein the pump is configured to deliver water to the atomizer intermittently or by causing pulsating water flow.

6. The mobile cooling device of claim 5 , wherein the pump is configured to deliver water to the atomizer at an interval of from about 0.1 to about 1.5 seconds.

7. The mobile cooling device of claim 1 , further comprising an oscillation unit attached to the base.

8. The mobile cooling device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic component is attached to the bottom of the base.

9. The mobile cooling device of claim 1 , further comprising a mounting assembly configured to attach the fan assembly to the base.

10. The mobile cooling device of claim 9 , wherein the mounting assembly is configured to telescope.

11. The mobile cooling device of claim 9 , wherein the mounting assembly is configured to rotate.

12. The mobile cooling device of claim 9 , wherein the mounting assembly is configured to conduct air flow to an electrical component.

13. The mobile cooling device of claim 9 , wherein the mounting assembly is configured to enclose one or more wire.

14. The mobile cooling device of claim 9 , wherein the mounting assembly is configured to removably attach the fan assembly to the base.

15. The mobile cooling device of claim 9 , wherein the mounting assembly is configured to remain attached to the fan assembly when the fan assembly is disposed within the base.

16. The mobile cooling device of claim 15 , wherein the mounting assembly comprises a joint.

17. The mobile cooling device of claim 15 , wherein the mounting assembly comprises a pivoting gimbal.

18. A mobile cooling device comprising:

a base comprising a reservoir, a lid, wheels, and a well, the well located on the bottom of the base and housing an oscillation unit;

a fan assembly dimensioned to fit within the base, the fan assembly comprising a body, a vent configured to divert a portion of airflow toward the well, and an air movement assembly mounted to the body, the air movement assembly comprising a fan motor operably connected to a fan blade assembly; and

a mounting assembly operably connected to the oscillation unit and configured to removably attach the fan assembly to the base and to provide a lumen for airflow from the vent to the well.

19. The mobile cooling device of claim 18 , wherein the fan assembly further comprises an air straightening vane.

20. The mobile cooling device of claim 18 , wherein the fan assembly further comprises an atomizer.

21. A method for making a mobile cooling device comprising:

molding a single piece casing; and

cutting the casing to produce a reservoir component and a fan assembly component.

22. The method of claim 21 , wherein cutting the casing further comprises cutting the casing to produce the reservoir component, the fan assembly component, and a lid for the reservoir component.

23. The method of claim 21 , wherein the fan assembly component is dimensioned to fit within the reservoir component.

24. The method of claim 23 , wherein the fan assembly component can be enclosed within the reservoir component with a lid.

25. The mobile cooling device of claim 8 , wherein the electronic component is located within a well at the bottom of the base.

26. The mobile cooling device of claim 18 , further comprising an electronic component in the well.
