A fan unit is detachably attached on a side face of a housing, a heating element is housed in the housing, and the fan unit includes a fan configured to be detachably attached to the fan unit. The fan unit is configured to detachably support the fan so that when the fan unit is attached to the housing, directions in which the fan is attached to and detached from the fan unit are made different from directions in which the fan unit is attached to and detached from the housing.

Fan unit

In a snap-fit for attaching a second unit to a first unit, an engaging member provided on the second unit includes: a claw configured to restrict movement of the second unit relative the first unit in a removing direction; an elastic support configured to support the claw so as to be movable in a direction intersecting the removing direction and in a releasing direction in which the claw is released from the engagement with an engaged member provided on the first unit; and an operative part provided on the elastic support and configured to release an engagement of the engaging member with the engaged member. The operative part includes at least a portion that overlaps the claw with respect to the removing direction.

Snap-fit

A controller is attached to a back face of a display device. The controller includes: a housing; a control unit removably accommodated in a slot formed in the housing and configured to control the display device; a backboard provided inside the housing on the interior side with respect to the direction of insertion of the control unit and connected to the control unit; and a second connector connected to a first connector provided for the display device to establish connection between the backboard and the display device.

Controller

A controller is detachably attached to a back face of a display device. The controller includes: a housing; a control unit housed in the housing and configured to control the display device; a connecting part configured to electrically connect the control unit to the display device; a fan configured to cool the control unit; and a fan attaching structure provided on the housing and configured to detachably attach the fan to the housing.

An electronic device includes: a casing; and an electronic circuit board housed within the casing. The electronic device further includes a protector which is provided on a surface of the electronic circuit board that faces the casing. The height of the protector is larger than the height of an electronic component mounted on the surface of the electronic circuit board that faces the casing. In a state that the electronic circuit board is housed within the casing, the protector abuts on a surface of the casing that faces the electronic circuit board.
