Abstract
According to one embodiment, a cooling unit includes a heat dissipating mechanism, a fan, and a movable cover. The heat dissipating mechanism is housed in a housing of an electronic device. The fan is housed in the housing, and generates an air flow that collides against the heat dissipating mechanism. The movable cover includes a sheet and a knob. The sheet serves as an openable and closable cover to cover an opening on a chamber formed between the fan and the heat dissipating mechanism from the outside. The knob is located on the sheet and protrudes outward.
