Abstract

PURPOSE:To realize a forcible air blast cooling which does not scatter the document nor dust by adding a return to change the exhausting direction so that the air exhausted through a hole formed at the bottom part of a main body case is distance away from the surface where a fixed stand is set. CONSTITUTION:A pair of returns 24 are formed at the place where a T-shaped metallic parts 20 is set and in the tilting direction of a sloping surface 23. A main body case 11 contains a heat generating part 40 made of a printed board, etc., and holding a module. While an exhaust hole 12 is formed at the bottom part of the case 11 and an exhausting device 13 consisting of a motor and a fan is set above the hole 12. The air moves up and down within the case 11 in accordance with the actuation of the device 13 and hits the returns 24 after passing through the hole 12 and an air path C. Thus the flowing direction of the exhausted air is changed and corrected. Therefore the exhausted air never flows horizontally along the surface where a stand 20 is installed. As a result, the documents and the dust, etc., are not scattered on said surface and the cooling effect is improved for an electronic equipment main body.
