Display assemblies inducing turbulent flow

A display assembly comprising:

• a structural framework;
• subassemblies, attached to a different sides of the structural framework and each comprising an electronic display and an airflow passageway such that an entrance to the airflow passageway of a first given one the subassemblies is located closer to an exit to the airflow passageway of a second given one of the subassemblies than the entrance to the airflow passageway of the second given one of the subassemblies;
• a common airflow passageway providing an open, unobstructed, continuous, uncompartmentalized space between and along a rear surface of the subassemblies so as to provide a fluid connection among the airflow passageways of the subassemblies, thereby forming, at least in part, a closed airflow pathway for circulating gas for the subassemblies;
• and
• fan units, spaced apart from one another, facing in different directions within the common airflow passageway, and associated with different ones of the subassemblies, each fan unit comprising a ducted passageway encompassing, extending from, and providing an exclusive exit for the fan unit to the airflow passageway of the associated one of the subassemblies to the exclusion of non-associated one or ones of the subassemblies such that airflow of the circulating gas through the airflow passageways of the subassemblies travel in different directions when the fan units are operated.

A display assembly comprising:

• a structural framework;
• subassemblies, each attached to a different side of the structural framework and comprising a cover layer which is transparent or translucent, a liquid crystal layer located rearward of the cover, a backlight for direct backlighting of the liquid crystal layer located rearward of the liquid crystal layer, and an airflow passageway extending, at least in part, in a space between the cover layer and the liquid crystal layer wherein an entrance to the airflow passageway of a first one the subassemblies is located closer to an exit to the airflow passageway of a second one of the subassemblies than the entrance to the airflow passageway of the second one of the subassemblies;
• a common airflow passageway providing an open, unobstructed, continuous, uncompartmentalized space between and along a rear surface of each of the subassemblies so as to provide a fluid connection among the airflow passageways of each of the subassemblies, thereby forming a closed airflow pathway;
• and
• fan units, spaced apart from one another, facing in different directions within the common airflow passageway, and associated with different ones of the subassemblies, each fan unit comprising multiple, centrifugal type fans, and a common ducted passageway encompassing, extending from, and providing an exclusive exit for the fan unit to the airflow passageway of the associated one of the subassemblies to the exclusion of non-associated one or ones of the subassemblies such that airflow through the airflow passageways travels in different directions when the fan units are activated.
