Cooling device for electronic apparatus

An electronic apparatus, comprising:

• an electronic component;
• and
• a cooling device comprising:
• a heat sink having a plurality of fins standing side by side in a thickness direction on a base portion that conducts heat of the electronic component;
• a first air blower configured to rotate to blow air so as to create a flow of air between the fins, the first air blower comprising a first discharge surface for discharging the air toward the heat sink;
• a second air blower configured to rotate to blow air so as to create a flow of air between the fins, the second air blower comprising a second discharge surface for discharging the air toward the heat sink, and provided adjacent to the first air blower;
• a duct that covers the heat sink, the first air blower, and the second air blower, and that comprises intake ports upstream and an exhaust port downstream in an air blowing direction of the first air blower and the second air blower;
• and
• a partition member that is provided between the heat sink and the first air blower and the second air blower, the partition member comprising a bottom plate and a partition wall, the bottom plate being in contact with the base portion and configured to conduct heat of the base portion, the partition wall standing on the bottom plate and dividing a space above the bottom plate from a position between the first discharge surface and the second discharge surface to one of the fins.

A personal computer, comprising:

• a CPU;
• and
• a cooling device comprising:
• a heat sink having a plurality of fins standing side by side in a thickness direction on a base portion that conducts heat of the CPU;
• a first air blower configured to rotate to blow air so as to create a flow of air between the fins, the first air blower comprising a first discharge surface for discharging the air toward the heat sink;
• a second air blower configured to rotate to blow air so as to create a flow of air between the fins, the second air blower comprising a second discharge surface for discharging the air toward the heat sink, and provided adjacent to the first air blower;
• a duct that covers the heat sink, the first air blower, and the second air blower, and that comprises intake ports upstream and an exhaust port downstream in an air blowing direction of the first air blower and the second air blower;
• and
• a partition member that is provided between the heat sink and the first air blower and the second air blower, the partition member comprising a bottom plate and a partition wall, the bottom plate being in contact with the base portion and configured to conduct heat of the base portion, the partition wall standing on the bottom plate and dividing a space above the bottom plate from a position between the first discharge surface and the second discharge surface to one of the fins.
