Abstract
A heat-radiation structure of an electronic-unit box in which an air layer is formed between a primary peripheral wall of the electronic-unit box and a secondary peripheral wall located inside the primary peripheral wall, and an electronic unit is received inside the secondary peripheral wall, an air intake and an air outlet are provided in a box body so as to communicate with the air layer, and air interrupting walls are provided in a shorter peripheral-distance-side flow path of the air layer between the air intake and the air outlet so that cooling air passes through a longer peripheral-distance-side flow path of the air layer from the air intake to the air outlet. Preferably, an electric fan is provided at the air outlet.
