System for using constricted convection with closed loop cooling system as the convection plate
First Claim
1. A gas cooling system for an electronic display having a display surface and a rear surface, the system comprising:
- a first gas chamber positioned anterior to the electronic display surface;
a second gas chamber in gaseous communication with said first gas chamber and positioned posterior to the rear surface of the electronic display, the space between the rear surface and the second gas chamber defining a gap;
a cooling chamber fan within said second gas chamber to propel gas around the first and second gas chambers; and
a fan positioned to draw ambient air through said gap.

Abstract
A cooling system and a method for cooling an electronic display is disclosed. A preferred embodiment utilizes a first gas chamber positioned anterior to the front display surface and a second gas chamber in gaseous communication with the first gas chamber and positioned posterior to the electronic display. The space between the second gas chamber and electronic display defines a gap, where ambient air can be drawn through the gap in order to cool the electronic display. A cooling chamber fan preferably forces gas to circulate through the first and second gas chambers, in order to remove heat from the front display surface.

17. An isolated gas cooling system for a liquid crystal display (LCD) having a display surface and a LED backlight panel, the system comprising:
-
a first glass plate; a second glass plate laminated to the first glass plate and placed in front of the LCD display surface, the space between the glass plates and LCD display surface defining a channel; an anti-reflective coating applied to any one of the following;
first glass plate and second glass plate;a cooling plenum in gaseous communication with the channel and positioned behind the LED backlight panel, the space between the cooling plenum and backlight panel defining a gap; a first fan positioned so as to circulate isolated gas through the channel and cooling plenum; and a second fan positioned so as to force cooling gas over the cooling plenum and through the gap. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
