International Classification:
F21V 7/22
US Classification:
362606, 362608, 362613, 362622, 362626
Abstract:
A backlight device for a liquid crystal display containing a substantially planar light guide with a light emission surface and a light-collecting portion opposing the light emission surface. A pair of opposing side portions may define the periphery of the light guide. A first plurality of LEDs are placed so as to direct the emitted light into the light-collecting portion. An NVIS filter is preferably placed adjacent to at least one of the side portions. A second plurality of LEDs are placed to direct the emitted light through the NVIS filter and into a side portion of the light guide. Alternative embodiments can contain NVIS filters and LEDs along additional edge portions of the light guide. Some embodiments may use directing elements or slanted surfaces of the light guide to direct the light from the second plurality of LEDs into the edge portions of the light guide.

International Classification:
G02F 1/13357, F28F 7/00, H05K 7/20
US Classification:
349 61, 361704, 165185
Abstract:
An expanded heat sink for transferring heat from an electronic display component to a path of cooling air is disclosed. A continuous sheet may define a series of channels where the cooling air is blown through the channels and along the continuous sheet. When viewed along the path of the cooling air and oriented horizontally, the continuous sheet may define a series of four-sided polygons having top, bottom, left side, and right side portions where either the top or bottom portions are absent from each polygon. The absent top portions may be supplied by a front plate or the rear portion of an electronic display. The absent bottom portions maybe supplied by a rear plate. One or more components of the electronic display may be placed in thermal communication with the sheet and/or front/rear plates to transfer heat from the components to the cooling air.
Heat Exchanger For Back To Back Electronic Displays
US Patent:
2013027, Oct 24, 2013
Filed:
Dec 3, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/692657
Inventors:
William R. DUNN - Alpharetta GA, US
International Classification:
H05K 7/20, F21V 29/02
US Classification:
362 973, 361704, 361696
Abstract:
A cooling assembly for a dual electronic image assembly having an open and closed gaseous loop. A closed gaseous loop allows circulating gas to travel across the front surface of a pair of electronic image assemblies and through a heat exchanger. An open loop allows ambient gas to pass through the heat exchanger and extract heat from the circulating gas. An optional additional open loop may be used to cool the back portion of the electronic image assembly (optionally a backlight). The cooling assembly can be used with any type of electronic assembly for producing an image. Some embodiments use cross-flow heat exchangers comprised of corrugated plastic.
Liquid Crystal Flat Panel Display With An Integral Heater Of Predeterminable Capacity
US Patent:
2012026, Oct 25, 2012
Filed:
Oct 17, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/274591
Inventors:
William Dunn - Alpharetta GA, US
Assignee:
AMERICAN PANEL CORPORATION - Alpharetta GA
International Classification:
H05B 3/00, G02F 1/136
US Classification:
349 21, 219209
Abstract:
A flat panel liquid crystal display has a front plate and a rear plate with a layer of liquid crystal material maintained in a cavity between them. A thin film transistor array layer is disposed in the cavity, as is an integral heater with a grid of intersecting sets of horizontal and vertical conductors. The heating capacity of the heater is predeterminably set by selectively interrupting continuity of at least some of the intersecting conductors. In some embodiments, the discontinuities occur in only one set of the intersecting conductors.

System For Cooling An Electronic Display
US Patent:
8358397, Jan 22, 2013
Filed:
Feb 16, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/706652
Inventors:
William R. Dunn - Alpharetta GA, US
Assignee:
Manufacturing Resources International, Inc. - Alpharetta GA
International Classification:
G02F 1/1333
US Classification:
349161, 349 58
Abstract:
A system for cooling an electronic display where an isolating structure may be used to allow ambient air to cool power modules. The isolating structure substantially prohibits containments which may be present within the ambient air from contacting sensitive electrical components on the power modules or otherwise. A gasket may be used to seal the interface between the power modules and the isolating structure. Heat sinks may be placed in thermal communication with the power supplies and fans may draw air through a narrow channel in which the heat sinks are located. In some embodiments the narrow channel may have the opposing surface of the channel defined by the rear portion of an LED assembly. Exemplary embodiments may use the ambient air to cool both the power modules and a closed loop of isolated gas within the electronic display.

Hanwook Baek - Cummings GA, US
Assignee:
Manufacturing Resources International, Inc. - Alpharetta GA
International Classification:
H03G 3/20
US Classification:
381 57
Abstract:
An ambient noise compensation system having an automatic gain control to adjust the volume of a desired sound in a listening area. A sound pick-up may be placed in the listening area to capture the sound level, including both the desired sound and ambient noise. A measured value is then determined based on the sound level received by the sound pick-up. The measured value may then be compared to a predictive value to determine an acceptable range. The gain control automatically adjusts the volume of the desired sound to maintain the measured sound within the acceptable range.
