  • Patent number: 5173839
    Abstract: A strip of alumina is thermally bonded to the under surface of an LED display by a thermally conductive adhesive. A thermally conductive front panel is placed in thermal contact surrounding the front surface of the display. A double sided, thermally conductive pressure-sensitive tape is used to bond a heatsink in thermal contact with the alumina. The heatsink is in thermal contact with the front panel and dissipates heat from the display via the alumina, the heatsink and the front panel.
