Abstract
Electronic component cooling apparatus capable of permitting a fan to be removed from a heat sink without rotating both relatively to each other. A base section of a casing is provided at a corner thereof with a leg having an engaging section formed at a distal end thereof. The base section is also provided at another corner thereof with a terminal holder in which connection terminals are received. The terminal holder includes a terminal holding section, which is integrally provided on both sides thereof with a pair of engagement elements. The engagement elements each are provided at a distal end thereof with a hook and have an upper end formed into a length sufficient to permit it to be held by fingers. A heat sink is provided at a corner thereof with an engaged section engaged with the engaging section of the leg. The heat sink is also provided at another corner thereof with projections engaged with the hooks of the engagement elements. The upper end of each of the engagement elements is operated to release engagement between the engaging section and the engaged section.
