System and method for a modular multi-panel display
First Claim
1. A method that includes a method of maintaining a modular multi-panel display that includes a mechanical support structure, a plurality of LED display panels detachably coupled to the mechanical support structure without a cabinet, a data receiver box mounted to the mechanical support structure, the data receiver box configured to provide power, data, and communication to the plurality of LED display panels, wherein each LED display panel is mechanically coupled to the mechanical support structure by a corner plate and is mechanically coupled to three other lighting panels by the corner plate, the method of maintaining comprising:
- determining that a defective LED display panel has a defect;
electrically disconnecting the defective LED display panel from the multi-panel display;
removing the corner plate from the defective LED display panel;
removing the defective LED display panel from the multi-panel display;
placing a replacement LED display panel at a location formerly taken by the defective LED display panel;
attaching the corner plate to the replacement LED display panel; and
electrically connecting the replacement LED display panel to the multi-panel display.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention relate to integrated modular display systems. In one embodiment, a modular multi-panel display system includes a mechanical support structure, and a plurality of LED display panels detachably mounted to the mechanical support structure so as to form an integrated display panel. Each LED panel includes an LED array and an LED driver coupled to the LED array. Each panel further includes a power supply unit disposed outside the housing and electrically coupled to the receiver circuit. The mechanical structure is configured to provide mechanical support to the plurality of LED display panels without providing hermetic sealing. Each of the plurality of LED display panels is hermetically sealed.
