Abstract
An electronic display assembly includes a housing with a pass-through device which accepts a utility line. One or more electronic display subassemblies are placed within said housing and a are surrounded by a substantially sealed closed loop pathway. An open loop pathway permits ambient air to pass through said housing and thermally interact with said closed loop pathway without mixing. At least two peripheral devices are located within said housing, one of which is a charging subassembly and the other is selected from the group consisting of: a camera, a touchscreen, an additional electronic display, video communications equipment, audio communications equipment, and an emergency notification subassembly.
Claims20
An electronic display assembly comprising:
- a housing;
- a pass-through device located in said housing and configured to accept one or more utility lines;
- one or more electronic display subassemblies placed within said housing;
- a substantially sealed closed loop pathway surrounding each of said one or more electronic display subassemblies;
- an open loop pathway configured to permit ambient air to pass through said housing and thermally interact with said closed loop pathway without mixing with circulating gas traveling through said closed loop pathway;
- at least two peripheral devices located within said housing, wherein one of said peripheral devices is a charging subassembly, and at least one other of said peripheral devices is selected from the group consisting of:
- a camera, a touchscreen, an additional electronic display, video communications equipment, audio communications equipment, and an emergency notification subassembly.
4 more elements
An electronic display assembly comprising:
- a housing;
- a frame having inner and outer surfaces and configured to receive said housing;
- a pass-through device located in said housing and configured to accept a power line and a communications network line;
- at least one electronic display subassembly mounted to the frame and comprising:
- a transparent layer,
- an electronic display layer,
- a hinging device configured to permit the electronic display subassembly to rotate between an opened and a closed position, and
- a gap defined by the space between the transparent layer and the electronic display layer;
- at least two peripheral devices wherein one of said peripheral devices is a charging subassembly, and at least one other of said peripheral devices is selected from the group consisting of:
- a camera, a touchscreen, an additional electronic display, video communications equipment, audio communications equipment, and an emergency notification subassembly;
- a sealed closed loop pathway comprising:
- the gap, and
- a cavity defined by a rear surface of the electronic display subassembly and the housing;
- a plate positioned within the cavity substantially parallel to the rear surface of the electronic display subassembly, wherein said plate is configured to receive at least some of said peripheral devices;
- and
- an open loop pathway configured to permit ambient air to pass through said housing and thermally interact with said closed loop pathway without mixing with circulating gas traveling through said closed loop pathway.
13 more elements
An electronic display assembly comprising:
- a housing;
- a frame having inner and outer surfaces and configured to receive said housing;
- a pass-through device located in said housing and configured to accept a power line and a communications network line;
- a first and second electronic display subassembly mounted to the frame in a back to back arrangement, wherein each electronic display subassembly comprises:
- a transparent layer,
- an electronic display layer,
- a hinging device configured to permit the electronic display subassembly to rotate between an opened and a closed position,
- a gap defined by the space between the transparent layer and the electronic display layer, and
- at least two peripheral devices wherein one of said peripheral devices is a charging subassembly, and at least one other of said peripheral devices is selected from the group consisting of:
- a camera, a touchscreen, an additional electronic display, video communications equipment, audio communications equipment, and an emergency notification subassembly;
- a sealed closed loop pathway comprising:
- the gap of each respective electronic display subassembly, and
- a cavity defined by a rear surface of the electronic display subassembly and the housing;
- a plate positioned within the cavity substantially parallel to the rear surface of the electronic display subassembly, wherein said plate is configured to receive at least some of said peripheral devices;
- and
- an open loop pathway configured to permit ambient air to pass through said housing and thermally interact with said closed loop pathway without mixing with circulating gas traveling through said closed loop pathway;
- wherein each of said charging subassemblies comprises:
- a number of adapters configured to charge personal electronic devices,
- a number of cords, each extending to one of said number of adapters, and
- a common cord which extends from said housing to said number of cord.
