An electronic device includes first and second housings rotatable relative to each other, a fan inside the housing, and a hinge structure rotatably connecting the first and second housings to each other. The hinge structure includes a vent member rotating together with rotation of the first and second housings. The vent member includes first and second portions which guide first air flow between intake and exhaust openings together with operation of the fan. The first and second housings which face each other define a first angle therebetween, the first and second housings which are maximally rotated define a second angle therebetween, and the first and second housings forming a third angle between the first angle and the second angle, rotates the vent member to dispose the first and second vent portions together guiding air flow in different directions, relative to the front side of the electronic device.

An electronic device includes a processor electronically connected to a memory and is configured to detect whether the electronic device is on an external electronic device having a cooling function. In response to detecting the electronic device being on the external electronic device, detecting, by the processor determines whether the electronic device is functionally connected to the external electronic device, and if so, the processor monitors a temperature of the electronic device. The processor generates a control command corresponding to the monitored temperature and sends the generated control command to the external electronic device having the cooling function.

Electronic device and method for controlling cooling function of external electronic device

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to an electronic device including a stacked circuit board. The electronic device comprises: a first circuit board; a second circuit board; one or more circuit elements disposed on the second circuit board; and a connecting member disposed between the first circuit board and the second circuit board facing the first circuit board to form an internal space surrounding at least some of the one or more circuit elements, and to electrically connect the first and second circuit boards, wherein the internal space may be filled with a phase change material (PCM) that absorbs heat generated by the at least some circuit elements to change the state of the material. Various other embodiments of the present invention may be additionally provided.

Electronic device filled with phase change material between plurality of circuit boards connected by connecting members

The disclosure relates to a wireless charging device including a cooling fan, and the wireless charging device according to an embodiment of the disclosure includes: a housing including a holding portion configured to hold an external electronic device; a first bracket positioned in the holding portion; a conductive coil disposed in the first bracket; a second bracket positioned in the holding portion and including a penetrating hole; a first cooling fan positioned in the penetrating hole; a second cooling fan positioned in the penetrating hole and spaced apart from the first cooling fan; and a partition formed in the penetrating hole to isolate the first cooling fan and the second cooling fan from each other, the penetrating hole being divided into a first area having the first cooling fan disposed therein and a second area having the second cooling fan positioned therein, at least one protrusion having a volute shape formed on at least a portion of the second bracket or at least a portion of the partition, a first opening formed on at least an area of the first bracket to allow air cooled by the first cooling fan and/or the second cooling fan to move to the holding portion, and a second opening formed on at least an area of the holding portion to allow the air transmitted from the first opening to move outside the wireless charging device.

Method for controlling cooling fan and wireless charging device

According to various embodiments an electronic device may include a first housing comprising a hollow portion configured to receive an external electronic device, and a second housing disposed at an angle defined by a portion coupled with at least part of the hollow portion. The second housing may include a first cover facing at least part of the hollow portion and comprising a plurality of first openings, a second cover received in the first cover and comprising a plurality of second openings, and an electric fan motor disposed in a space between the first cover and the second cover, the electric fan motor configured to discharge at least part of intake air from at least some of the first openings to at least some of the second openings.
