Abstract
A display assembly with integrated electric vehicle charging equipment includes a first and second side assembly connected to a structural frame, each including an electronic display subassembly located behind a cover. The electric vehicle charging equipment is connected to the structural frame between said first and second side assemblies in an at least partially recessed manner. Open or closed loops of air may be provided for cooling the first and second side assemblies and the electric vehicle charging equipment, which may all be connected to a common power source.
Claims21
