Abstract

Claims (37)

1. A image display device comprising:

an image display panel;

heat dispersion material positioned proximate to the image display panel; and

a frame system comprising

(i) a framework positioned proximate to the heat dispersion material opposite the image display panel; and

(ii) a plurality of electronic components engaging the framework,

wherein the image display device exhibits a support factor of 0 mm-W/m° K.

2. The image display device of claim 1 , further including a first cross support spanning the framework and a plurality of second electronic components engaging the first cross support.

3. The image display device of claim 2 , further including a second cross support spanning the framework wherein at least one of the second electronic components engages the second cross support.

4. The image display device of claim 1 , further including an adhesive bonding the framework to the heat dispersion material.

5. The image display device of claim 1 , wherein the framework including a height and a width, wherein the heat dispersion material substantially spans the height and the width of the framework.

6. The image display device of claim 1 , wherein the heat dispersion material comprises at least one sheet of compressed particles of exfoliated graphite.

7. An image display device comprising:

an image display panel including an image display side;

heat dispersion material positioned proximate to the image display panel opposite the image display side; and

a frame system comprising

(i) a perimeter framework position proximate to the heat dispersion material opposite the image display panel, the perimeter framework including a top, bottom, first side, and second side; and

(ii) a plurality of electronic components engaging the perimeter framework,

wherein the image display device exhibits a support factor of 0 mm-W/m° K.

8. The image display device of claim 7 , wherein the top, bottom, first side and second side of the framework define an aperture.

9. The image display device of claim 8 , wherein the heat dispersion material substantially spans the aperture.

10. The image display device of claim 7 , wherein the heat dispersion material engages the top, bottom, first side and second side of the framework.

11. The image display device of claim 7 , wherein the heat dispersion material comprises at least one sheet of compressed particles of exfoliated graphite.

12. The image display device of claim 7 , wherein the image display panel is a plasma display panel.

13. The image display device of claim 7 , wherein the image display panel is a liquid crystal display panel.

14. A image display device comprising:

an image display panel; and

a frame system comprising

(i) heat dispersion material position proximate to the image display panel;

(ii) a framework positioned proximate to the heat dispersion material opposite the image display panel; and

(iii) a plurality of electronic components engaging the open frame,

wherein the image display device exhibits a support factor of 0 mm-W/m° K.

15. The image display device of claim 14 , further including a first cross support spanning the framework and a plurality of second electronic components engaging the first cross support.

16. The image display device of claim 15 , further including a second cross support spanning the framework wherein at least one of the second electronic components engages the second cross support.

17. The image display device of claim 14 , further including an adhesive bonding the framework to the heat dispersion material.

18. The image display device of claim 14 , wherein the framework including a height and a width, wherein the heat dispersion material substantially spans the height and the width of the framework.

19. The image display device of claim 14 , wherein the heat dispersion material comprises at least one sheet of compressed particles of exfoliated graphite.
