Field serviceable and replaceable assembly

A field serviceable display assembly comprising:

• a structural framework;
• a first and second side assembly mounted to opposing sides of said structural framework in a moveable manner, each of said first and second side assemblies comprising:
• a transparent layer;
• an electronic display located behind the transparent layer;
• and
• a channel configured to receive circulating gas located between said transparent layer and said electronic display;
• a cavity located within the structural framework and between the first and second side assemblies;
• a fixed structure positioned within the cavity and configured to receive a number of electronic components, wherein said fixed structure is configured to remain stationary when said first and second side assemblies are moved between a closed position where said cavity is enclosed by structural framework and said multiple side assemblies, and an opened position where said fixed structure is exposed to facilitate direct access to said electronic components located thereon;
• one or more open loop airflow pathways for ambient air located within the structural framework and at least a portion of which extends between the electronic displays of the first and second side assemblies;
• a first set of one or more fans configured to, when activated, move said gas through said channels of said multiple side assemblies when activated;
• and
• a second set of one or more fans configured to, when activated, ingest and move said ambient air through said one or more open loop airflow pathways for exhaustion;
• wherein said channels are fluidly connected to said cavity when said multiple side assemblies are placed in said closed position, and said channels are fluidly separated from said cavity when said multiple side assemblies are placed in said opened position.

A field serviceable display assembly comprising:

• a structural framework;
• at least one intake for ingesting ambient air;
• at least one exhaust for exhausting ambient air;
• a first and second side assembly mounted to opposing sides of said structural framework, each of said first and second side assemblies comprising:
• a transparent layer;
• an electronic display located behind the transparent layer;
• and
• a channel configured to receive circulating gas and located between said transparent layer and said electronic display;
• a number of hinging devices spaced apart vertically along said structural framework and configured to permit independent movement of said first and second side assemblies about a first and second vertical axis, respectively;
• a cavity located within the structural framework and between the first and second side assemblies;
• a fixed structure positioned within the cavity and configured to receive a number of electronic components, wherein said fixed structure is configured to remain stationary when said first and second side assemblies are moved between a closed position where said cavity is enclosed by said structural framework and said multiple side assemblies, and an opened position where said fixed structure is exposed to facilitate direct access to said electronic components located thereon;
• a first set of one or more airflow pathways comprising said channels and configured to accommodate circulating gas;
• a second set of one or more airflow pathways located within the structural framework, at least a portion of which extends between the electronic displays of the first and second side assemblies, and fluidly connected to said at least one intake and said at least one exhaust, wherein said second set of one or more airflow pathways are configured to accommodate said ambient air;
• a first set of one or more fans configured to move said circulating gas through said first set of one or more open airflow pathways when activated;
• a second set of one or more fans configured to move said ambient air through said second set of one or more airflow pathways when activated;
• and
• wherein said channels are fluidly connected to said cavity when said multiple side assemblies are placed in said closed position, and said channels are fluidly separated from said cavity when said multiple side assemblies are placed in said opened position.
