  • Patent number: 11968813
    Abstract: A display assembly with divided interior space includes a first and second electronic display subassembly attached to a structural framework, where each of the subassemblies include an electronic display layer located behind a cover, an illumination device for providing illumination to the electronic display layer when powered, and a passageway for circulating gas. A common passageway for the circulating gas is located between the subassemblies and is in fluid communication with the passageways. A central septum extends within the common passageway between the subassemblies to divide the common passageway into a first portion and a second portion.

  • Patent number: 11966263
    Abstract: A display assembly includes a structural framework, a cover forward of an electronic display layer, and an illumination device rearward of the electronic display layer. A rear passageway is provided between a rear portion of the structural framework and a rear surface of the illumination device and is in fluid communication with a front passageway between a rear surface of the cover and a forward surface of the electronic display layer and an illumination device passageway between a rear surface of the electronic display layer and a front surface of the illumination device. A closed loop fan unit adjacent to an entrance to the front passageway and the illumination device passageway creates flows of circulating gas therethrough when activated.

  • Patent number: 11965804
    Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting and alerting to likely leaks in an electronic display assembly are provided. An electronic display assembly includes an electronic display, a testing area, and a differential pressure sensor fluidly connected to ambient air in an ambient environment and gas within the testing area. A controller determines one or more differential pressure readings based on data received from the differential pressure sensor, and generates and transmits an electronic notification where the differential pressure readings are below a predetermined threshold.
