The daughter board is mounted with a central processing unit which generates heat. The motherboard is provided with a hole. A heat dissipation block extends from the heat dissipation plate through the hole in the motherboard, and is connected to the central processing unit through a heat conductive coupler.

In addition, another heat dissipation block is interposed between a keyboard and the daughter board so that another heat dissipation path can be formed through the central processing unit, another heat dissipation block, another heat dissipation plate, and the keyboard.

An air-cooled information processing apparatus has a plurality of units and a casing accommodating the units. At least one cooling air supply section and at least one cooling air discharge section are provided in the casing, for supplying cooling air into the apparatus and for discharging the air therefrom. A partition member divides the space inside the casing so as to define at least two cooling air flow channels between the cooling air supply section and the cooling air discharge section. At least one main fan unit is disposed in each of the cooling air flow channels. The cooling air flow channels include at least one first cooling air flow channel in which at least two units from among the plurality of units are disposed in parallel with each other with respect to the direction of flow of cooling air, and at least one second cooling air flow channel in which at least two units from among the plurality of units are arranged in series to each other along the flow of cooling air. This cooling arrangement ensures optimum cooling for different types of units in the apparatus, without being accompanied by rise in the noise level, rate of discharge of air, power consumption and production cost.

A flat shaped header having a heat receiving side is attached to a semiconductor element mounted on a circuit board. The header having the heat receiving side is connected to another header having a heat receiving side attached to a plurality of heat radiating fins so as to form a heat exchanging radiator which heat radiating fins are installed at a peripheral portion of a body of electronic equipment. The heat generated by the semiconductor element is transmitted by liquid moving between the headers via flexible tubes and then to the heat radiating fins, which heat is discharged outside of the body of equipment. Since the flat shaped header and the flexible tubes are employed, a high heat generating semiconductor element and the heat radiating fins are thermally connected with ease without being influenced by the configurational condition in the equipment even when many semiconductor elements are mounted inside a small space.

A cooling apparatus for electronic equipment for improving the reliability of the equipment by making uniform the temperature distribution of heat generating devices mounted on the electronic equipment, more particularly on a computer and for reducing the working process required at the time of performing a maintenance of a printed circuit board in the electronic equipment by stacking, in a frame, the electronic printed circuit boards on which the heat generating devices, such as a CPU and memories, are mounted at predetermined intervals. The cooling apparatus has a fan fastened to one wall surface of a chamber and a plurality of jet cooling devices formed on the surface opposing the wall surface. The jet cooling devices are formed in parallel to the printed circuit boards. The jet cooling devices are slits, or nozzles or jet stream ducts extending among the printed circuit boards and are so formed as to supply cooling air in a jet stream state to each heat generating device. Therefore, the cooling air can be concentrated to locally cool the printed circuit board including the device that generates heat of a large heating value. Hence, the temperature rise in the heat generating devices can be made uniform.

Disclosed is an LSI package cooling heat sink having a heat diffusion plate and thin wire fins joined to the heat diffusion plate. The heat sink is mounted on an LSI package and the LSI package is cooled by the flowing of fluid through the thin wire fins. The wire fins are made of a net formed of longitudinal thin wires intersecting with horizontal thin wires. The net is formed to continuous rectangular shapes or a swirl shape and joined to the heat diffusion plate. The net is constituted so that the number of the thin wires vertical to the heat diffusion plate is larger than the number of the thin wires parallel thereto and the net is joined to the heat diffusion plate by brazing, diffusion joint, pressure welding or the like. Since the heat sink is formed of the net composed of the longitudinal thin wires intersecting with the horizontal thin wires, the irregular portions of the adjacent thin wires are formed at a dislocated position and fluid striking against the thin wires produces many turbulent flows so that a high heat transfer performance can be obtained. Further, since the net formed of the thin wires is used, the size of cooling fins can be reduced and noise can be also lowered. Further, it is possible to produce an LSI package cooling heat sink in a short time which heat sink is excellent in mass-production.

In a small-sized computer of a natural air-cooling type, a high-temperature radiator promotes natural convection so as to increase a quantity of heat radiation and to raise the allowable limit of heat generation of LSI chips, thereby improving the processing speed of the computer. For this purpose, a casing and fins are utilized as heat radiators at relatively low temperatures of about 40.degree. C. which are safe even if they are touched by an operator's hands. On the other hand, the high-temperature radiator set at about 50.degree. to 60.degree. C. is provided inside of the casing, thus preventing the operator's hands from touching it directly. Heat generated by the LSI chips and so forth is transmitted to the high-temperature radiator through heat conduction or the like, and heat exchange is performed between the high-temperature radiator increased in temperature and the air introduced into the casing, in order to promote natural convection inside of the casing.

A cooling system for cooling an electronic device by allowing a cooling fluid to flow in contact with heat generating components such as LSI chips of the electronic device arranged in series along the major flow of the cooling fluid. The cooling system has heat radiation fins attached to the heat-generating components, and a cooling duct defining a cooling fluid flow passage in which assemblies composed of the heat-generating components and the heat radiation fins are disposed. The flow passage has, at the upstream end of the upstream end assembly, a cross-sectional area greater than that of the assembly when taken in a plane perpendicular to the direction of the major flow of the cooling fluid. The cross-sectional area of the flow passage progressively decreases towards the downstream end, whereby the flow passage is divided into a main passage through which a main flow component of the cooling fluid directly flows into the series of assemblies and an auxiliary passage through which an auxiliary component of the cooling fluid flows substantially vertically towards the heat-generating component to impinge upon the heat generating component.
