Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a first chassis having a heat generating element, a second chassis, a hinge device that connects the first chassis and the second chassis such that the first chassis and the second chassis can be rotated relative to each other between a 0-degree attitude and a 180-degree attitude, and a display provided across the first chassis and the second chassis. The hinge device has a metal hinge main body, a metal first support plate provided to be relatively movable with respect to the inner surface of the first chassis, and a metal second support plate provided to be relatively movable with respect to the inner surface of the second chassis. The electronic apparatus further includes a flexible heat conductive member in the first chassis. The heat conductive member thermally connects a heat receiving member that receives heat from a heat generating element, and the first support plate.

Abstract: The present invention aims to reduce noise derived from an operation sound of a fan while maintaining cooling capacity of the fan. A cooling system includes a fan which is disposed in a chassis in which a CPU which is exemplified as a heating element is housed, one temperature sensor which is disposed in the chassis, another temperature sensor which is disposed at a position which is different from a position of the one temperature sensor, and a fan control unit which drives the fan in a case where one temperature, which is based on a measured value of one temperature sensor, is at least a first threshold value or in a case where another temperature, which is based on a measured value of the other temperature sensor, is at least a second threshold value which is set to a value lower than the first threshold value.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes: a chassis; a heat generation element provided in the chassis; a heat transfer member in contact with the heat generation element in a heat-transferable manner; and one or a plurality of heat dissipation mechanisms configured to cool the heat transfer member. The heat dissipation mechanism includes a first cooling device configured to cool a first main surface of the heat transfer member, and a second cooling device configured to cool a second main surface of the heat transfer member opposite to the first main surface. The first cooling device includes a first heat dissipation plate in contact with the first main surface in a heat-transferable manner, and a first blower mechanism configured to blow a gas to come into contact with the first heat dissipation plate.
