DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18074118 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display device with a housing that has vents for airflow. Inside the housing, there is a display panel that transmits images forward. The device includes two cooling flow paths and two blowers to generate airflow.

  • The housing has vents for introducing external air and allowing it to flow out.
  • The display panel is positioned inside the housing and transmits images forward.
  • A first cooling flow path is formed inside the housing, and a first blower exchanges heat with the display panel to generate airflow in this path.
  • A second cooling flow path intersects the first path and is connected to the vents. A second blower generates airflow in this path.
  • A heat exchanger is positioned behind the display panel and includes channels for both cooling flow paths.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Display devices such as televisions, computer monitors, and digital signage.
  • Electronic devices with display screens, such as smartphones and tablets.
  • Automotive displays and infotainment systems.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Overheating of display panels, which can lead to reduced performance and shorter lifespan.
  • Inadequate cooling in display devices with limited space for airflow.
  • Ensuring efficient heat dissipation to maintain optimal performance.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved cooling efficiency for display panels, leading to better performance and longer lifespan.
  • Compact design that allows for effective heat dissipation in devices with limited space.
  • Enhanced reliability and durability of display devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

A display device including: a housing including a first vent through which external air is introduced and a second vent through which the introduced external air flows out; a display panel disposed inside the housing and configured to transmit an image forward; a first flow path formed inside the housing; a first blower configured to exchange heat with the display panel and generate an airflow flowing in the first cooling flow path; a second cooling flow path intersecting the first cooling flow path in communication with the first vent and the second vent and formed inside the housing; a second blower configured to generate an airflow flowing in the second cooling flow path; and a heat exchanger positioned behind the display panel, wherein the heat exchanger includes a first channel in which a part of the first cooling flow path is formed and a second channel intersecting the first channel and in which a part of the second cooling flow path is formed.
