Abstract
A cooling unit having a heat-receiving portion and a heat-exchanging portion. The heat-receiving portion is thermally connected to a heat-generating component. The heat-exchanging portion receives heat from the heat-receiving portion, at a position different from the position where the heat-generating component is provided. A part of the heat generated by the heat-generating component and transmitted to the heat-receiving portion is transferred to the heat-exchanging portion through a heat pipe. A fan device is provided between the heat-receiving portion and the heat-exchanging portion. The fan device supplies cooling air from the heat-receiving portion to the heat-exchanging portion
