    Abstract: Methods of and apparatuses for reducing the solar or infrared loading on display devices. A reflective material is positioned between a radiant energy source and the absorptive material of a display device to reflect wavelengths of radiant energy in the infrared or near-infrared range. The reflective material allows visible radiant energy to be transmitted, while reflecting the infrared radiant energy to reduce the infrared loading on the display device. The present invention reduces the temperature rise of the display device due to infrared loading by reflection rather than absorption of the radiant energy, while preserving the integrity of the visible wavelength range. The reflective material reduces the infrared loading on the display device by up to 50%.

    Abstract: An adapter for commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) circuit card modules resultin g in increased cooling efficiency. COTS circuit card modules generally have at least one printed wiring board (PWB), at least one component mounted on the PWB, a heatsink or some type of heat path, a frame for supporting the cards, and a wedgelock for use with a conduction-cooled chassis. The adapter increases the cooling efficiency of such COTS modules while allowing them to remain compliant with IEEE 1101.2 Specifications. The invention is efficient in removing heat from the COTS circuit card modules as it increases the conduction contact area between the chassis cold wall and the COTS module. I n addition, the adapter allows for the use of an extended width wedgelock to increase the clamping force over the conduction contact area. The extended width wedgelock is mounted to one surface of the frame such that when installed in a conduction-cooled chassis, the opposite frame surface is forc ed against the chassis cold wall. The increased wedgelock size approximately doubles the clamping force applied. The net effect of these improvements are a reduction in the thermal resistance per inch of wedgelock length. This, in turn, reduces the module to chassis interface temperature rise. The improved thermal resistances anddecreased temperature rises boost the reliability of the COTS circuit cards, particularly in the stringent environments experienc ed in military applications.

    Abstract: Methods of and apparatuses for reducing the solar or infrared loading on display devices. A reflective material (39) is positioned between a radiant energy source (5) and the absorptive material (410) of a display device (400) to reflect wavelengths of radiant energy in the infrared or near-infrared range. The reflective material (30) allows visible radiant energy (60) to be transmitted, while reflecting the infrared radiant energy to reduce the infrared loading on the display device. The present invention reduces the temperature rise of the display device due to infrared loading by reflection rather than absorption of the radiant energy, while preserving the integrity of the visible wavelength range. The reflective material (30) reduces the infrared loading on the display device by up to 50 %.

    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a color liquid crystal display backlight syste m for daytime and nighttime use. Night vision imaging system requirements ate met so that light emissions from the 630 nm to 930 n m range are substantially reduced or eliminated. Separate daytime and nighttime light sources ate utilized. The NVIS compatible nighttime source is positioned to be out of sight of a user and produces an appropriately filtered, substantially collimated beam which diffusively reflects from the inside walls and base of the display housing before it illuminates the display surface. Intensities of both dayti me and nighttime light sources can be controlled.

    Abstract: A circuit card module having increased cooling efficiency which comprises at least one printed wiring board (PWB), at least one component mounted on the PWB, a heatsink, an interchangeable frame, and a wedgelock for use with a chassis cold wall. One embodiment of the interchangeable frame comprises a protusion so that it can be used with a convection-cooled chassis (fully compliant with IEEE 1101.2 Specifications). Another embodiment, for use with conduction-cooled chassis only (partially compliant with IEEE 1101.2 Specifications), is maximally efficient in removing heat as it does not include the protusion. In the embodiment without the protusion, the conducti on contact area between the chassis cold wall and the frame is increased in wid th from approximately 0.25" to approximately 0.35". In either embodiment, the wedgelock is mounted to one surface of the frame such that when installed in a conduction-cooled chassis, the opposite frame surface is forced against the chassis cold wall. In addition, the wedgelock can be enlarged to increase th e clamping force over the contact area. The increased wedgelock size approximately doubles the clamping force applied. The net effect of these improvements are a reduction in the thermal resistance per inch of wedgelock length. This, in turn, reduces the module to chassis interface temperature rise of an exemplary 40 W module from 8.3 ~C to 4.15 ~C. The improved therma l resistances and decreased temperature rises boost the reliability of the circuit cards, particularly in the stringent environments experienced in military applications.
