    摘要: Methods for measuring power consumption include providing an assembly with electronic display subassemblies at a housing. The subassemblies each include light sources behind or adjacent to an electronic display layer and electricity consuming components. A simulated electric meter is electrically interposed between a utility electric supply and the electricity consuming components. The simulated electric meter includes a processor, an electronic storage device, and a current sensor. The assembly is operated. Current measurements are taken at the simulated electric meter. The power consumed is determined by multiplying each of the one or more current measurements with a predetermined amount or measurements from a voltage sensor to determine one or more power consumption measures.

    摘要: A display unit subassembly includes an electronic display and an open loop pathway for ambient air. An upper portion including an upper cavity for ambient air extends above, and is spaced apart from, the display unit subassembly. A frame extends between the upper portion and the display unit subassembly. An air intake is located between the upper portion and the display unit subassembly, is configured to receive ambient air, and is in fluid communication with said upper cavity and said open loop pathway.

    摘要: Systems and methods for cooling an electronic image assembly are provided. A transparent panel forms a front portion of a housing for the electronic image assembly. The transparent panel is located forward of, and at least some distance from the electronic image assembly. An airflow pathway passes through the housing between said electronic image assembly and said transparent panel. An air circulation device forces air through the airflow pathway. At least one polarizer located at the transparent panel is configured to reduce solar energy entering said airflow pathway.

    摘要: An assembly for an electronic display includes a digital side assembly and an access panel mounted to a frame. The digital side assembly includes a housing, a display layer located behind a cover panel, a front channel between the display layer and the cover panel, and a side assembly open loop channel behind the display layer. A cooling channel is located between the frame and the rear surfaces of the access panel and the digital side assembly. An open loop pathway for ambient air includes the side assembly open loop channel and an access panel open loop channel. A closed loop pathway for circulating gas includes the cooling channel and the front channel.
