Abstract
An image display device is provided that efficiently cools a display and internal circuit components thereof. The image display device includes a display for displaying visual information, circuit components spaced apart from a rear side of the display, a fan installed on the rear side of the display that generates an airflow from one side of the display to the other side of the display so as to cool the display and the circuit components, and an airflow distribution device facing the fan to selectively distribute the airflow generated by the fan towards the display and the circuit components based on temperatures of the display and the circuit components.
Claims20
An image display device comprising:
- a display for displaying visual information;
- circuit components spaced apart from a rear side of the display;
- a fan installed near a first end of the display, to a rear of the display, and generating an airflow from a first end of the display to a second end of the display so as to cool the display and the circuit components;
- an airflow distribution device that faces the fan and is configured to selectively distribute the airflow generated by the fan towards the display and the circuit components based on respective temperatures of the display and the circuit components;
- and
- a controller configured to control the fan and the airflow distribution device based on the temperatures of the display and the circuit components.
