A portable dehumidifier includes a cabinet and a pivoting handle. The pivoting handle is configured to pivot from a stored position to an engaged position. The pivoting handle includes a cross member, two extension members, and a cam arm. The cam arm is coupled to one of the extension members at an end of the extension member that is opposite the cross member. The cam arm includes a spring arm configured to engage with a locking pin coupled to the cabinet, a clearance hole configured to permit the cam arm to clear the locking pin when the pivoting handle is in the stored position, an aperture configured to permit a pivot pin to secure the cam arm to the cabinet, and a compression gap adjacent to the spring arm. The compression gap is configured to permit the spring arm to provide resistance to the pivoting handle during pivoting.

A dehumidifier includes a cabinet, a compressor, an evaporator, a condenser, and a fan. The cabinet is configured to be installed between studs in a wall. The evaporator is installed within the cabinet above the compressor. The condenser is installed within the cabinet above the evaporator. The fan is installed between the evaporator and a back surface of the cabinet. The fan is configured to generate the airflow that flows into the cabinet through the evaporator and out of the cabinet through condenser. The airflow flows through the evaporator and condenser in order to provide dehumidification to the airflow.

In-wall dehumidifier

A portable dehumidifier includes a cabinet and two wheel mounting brackets. Each wheel mounting bracket is configured to secure one of two wheels to the cabinet. Each wheel mounting bracket includes an inside member, a bottom member, a top member, and an outside member. The inside member includes a first axle aperture for one end of an axle. The bottom member includes one or more mounting apertures configured to permit one or more fasteners to couple the wheel mounting bracket assembly to a bottom side of a cabinet. The outside member includes a second axle aperture for another end of the axle. The top member couples the outside member to the inside member and is coupled to an end of the inside member opposite to the bottom member. The top member includes one or more locating pins configured to be inserted into one or more locating apertures in the cabinet.

A method for controlling a fan of a dehumidifier includes performing a first step of obtaining an ambient temperature, an exhaust temperature, and a delta temperature that is a difference between the ambient temperature and the exhaust temperature. The method further include determining, after performing the first step, whether the delta temperature is within a delta temperature range. If the delta temperature is within the delta temperature range, the method proceeds back to the first step. If the delta temperature is not within the delta temperature range, the method performs a second step of determining an adjusted fan speed using the delta temperature. The method further includes performing, after performing the second step, a third step of setting the fan speed to the determined adjusted fan speed.

A portable dehumidifier includes a cabinet, a fan, a dehumidification system, and a compressor. The cabinet includes a front side and a back side opposite the front side, an airflow inlet located on a first side of the cabinet, and an airflow outlet located on a second side of the cabinet that is opposite the first side. The dehumidification system includes a secondary evaporator located proximate to the airflow inlet, a primary condenser located proximate to the airflow outlet, a primary evaporator located adjacent to the secondary evaporator, a secondary condenser located between the primary evaporator and the primary condenser, and a compressor. The fan is configured to generate an airflow that flows into the cabinet through the airflow inlet and out of the cabinet through the airflow outlet. The airflow flows through the dehumidification system in order to provide dehumidification to the airflow.

An air mover comprising a housing with a top portion is disclosed. A mounting bracket is recessed into the housing through the top portion of the housing. The mounting bracket comprises a plurality of top chords intersecting at a first portion of an inner web and a plurality of bottom chords intersecting at a second portion of the inner web. The mounting bracket also has a base plate coupled to the plurality of bottom chords. A motor is coupled to the base plate of the mounting bracket. An impeller is coupled to the motor. The air mover further comprises a housing cover that has an inlet ring positioned on the top portion of the housing. The housing cover is coupled to the mounting bracket via the mounting flanges and a portion of the inlet ring protrudes into the impeller inlet inside the housing.
