SOLUTION: A controlling drawer 2 is stored over single pedestal drawers 21 and 22 of a personal computer mounted desk, the drawer 2 and the personal computer mounted desk are connected through a junction cable. A ventilation fan 11 is provided inside the drawer 2. Also, an intake air slit 10 for cooling is provided on the front plate of the drawer 2. The fan 11 which is installed in the drawer 2 that is overlapped on the desk pedestal drawers makes a heated air inside the drawer 2 pass through a cross-sectional L-shaped duct 17 along a rear plate 15 and a bottom plate 16 and exhaust from an exhaust port 18 that is provided at a front of the desk.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to the discharge of generated heat in a personal computer mounting desk.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A desk equipped with a conventional personal computer is described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 64-123 as an example.

FIG. 5 shows a non-use state of the personal computer, and FIG. 6 shows a use state of the personal computer. A top plate 32 is provided above both sleeves of the desk 31. When not using a personal computer,
As shown in FIG. 5, a personal computer main body 33, a printing device 35, and the like are arranged between the top plates 32 so as to form the same plane. That is, the display device 34 and the keyboard 36 are in a stored state where they are not displayed on the surface. When using a personal computer, the display device 34 is erected and the keyboard 36 is exposed, as shown in FIG.

[0004]

In a conventional personal computer mounting desk, a personal computer is embedded in an upper portion between both sleeves, but no measures are taken to discharge the heat generated here. With the recent increase in the performance of personal computers, it is indispensable to forcibly cool the control unit.

[0005] In a conventional personal computer-mounted desk, an outlet for generated heat must be provided near the operator's knee or at the top of the desk. In the structure in which the heat at the operator's knees is discharged, heat is trapped in the space between the sleeves of the desk, giving the operator discomfort. Further, in the structure in which heat is discharged to the upper part of the desk, when various articles are placed on the desk, the heat discharge port is closed, so that heat cannot be discharged.

Therefore, the present invention improves the disadvantage of the above-mentioned conventional structure for discharging heat generated in a personal computer mounting desk, so that an operator does not suffer from discomfort caused by hot air, and articles are placed on the desk. An object of the present invention is to provide a heat discharging structure that does not cause any trouble even when it is placed.

[0007]

The present invention employs the following means to solve the above-mentioned problems.

(1) Hot air in the control unit drawer is heated by an exhaust fan provided in a control unit drawer superimposed on a drawer in a sleeve portion of the desk to form an L-shaped cross section along a rear plate and a bottom plate of the desk. Through the outlet of the desk,
Computer mounting desk.

(2) The personal computer mounting desk according to (1), wherein an intake slit is provided on a front plate of the control unit drawer.

(3) The personal computer mounting desk according to (1), wherein the duct is provided between an inner surface plate of the desk, the rear plate, and the lower surface plate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS.
This will be described with reference to FIG.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the appearance of a personal computer mounting desk 1. As shown in FIG.

FIG. 2 shows the structure of the control unit drawer 2 in the personal computer mounting machine 1. Inside the control unit drawer 2, a main package 3, a power supply 4, a floppy disk device 5, a CDROM player 6, an optional package 8 attached to the main package 3, and an exhaust fan 11 are installed. Control unit drawer 2
The power switch 7 and the control unit drawer 2
, A cooling air intake slit 10 and respective operation surfaces of a floppy disk device 5 and a CDROM player 6 are provided.
A relay cable 9 is connected to the rear of the control unit drawer 2. The control unit drawer 2 is stored above drawers 21 and 22 in one sleeve of the personal computer mounting desk 1, and the control unit drawer 2 and the personal computer mounting desk 1 are connected by a relay cable 9.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the personal computer mounting desk 1. Connectors such as a CRT, a keyboard, a mouse, and a printer are connected to a connector panel 19 mounted on the top plate 13. A cable connected to an option board or the like can be taken out of the cable outlet 20.

FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. The hot air discharged from the control unit drawer 2 by the exhaust fan 11 is directed in the direction indicated by the arrows, that is, between the inner plate 14 and the rear plate 15 and between the inner plate 14 and the lower plate 16 in an L-shaped cross section. Passing through the duct 17
The paper is discharged from the discharge port 18 to the lower front part of the personal computer mounting desk 1.

[0016]

According to the personal computer mounting desk of the present invention, the hot air in the control unit drawer is heated by the exhaust fan provided in the control unit drawer superimposed on the drawer in the sleeve of the desk. And passes through a duct with an L-shaped cross section, and is discharged from a discharge port provided at the front of the desk, so that the operator does not suffer from discomfort caused by hot air and articles are placed on the desk. There is no problem even if it is set.
