Abstract:
An assembly for cooling an electronic image assembly having a rear channel placed behind the image assembly and a heat exchanger for accepting ambient air. The system contains a first fan placed within the heat exchanger to force ambient air through the heat exchanger and the rear channel. A second fan may be used to force circulating gas through an interior portion of the display housing and through the heat exchanger in order to transfer heat to the ingested ambient air.
Abstract:
A system for cooling an electronic image assembly using a heat exchanger with an internal fan assembly. Circulating gas may also be used to cool a front portion of the electronic image assembly or any other internal cavity of the electronic display housing. The circulating gas may be drawn through a heat exchanger so that heat may be transferred to an ambient gas. The heat exchanger may have an internal fan assembly for drawing ambient air through the heat exchanger and exhausting it out of the display housing. The heat exchanger may be divided into two portions so that the fan assembly is placed between the two portions.
Abstract:
An electronic display which can be mounted above a paved surface in an outdoor environment. A surface or plate is placed behind the electronic display to define a gap where cooling air can be drawn through said gap in order to cool the electronic display. A plurality of ribs may be placed within the gap and in thermal communication with the electronic display. The density of the ribs may be varied according to the inlet and exhaust openings for the cooling air. The ribs may be placed at a higher density near the exhaust to account for the increase in temperature of the cooling air as it travels through the gap.
