Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  B | IPC B  H

Claim 7:
8. A control device for a robot, configured to control the robot, comprising:
a casing including a main body having a first opening and a second opening disposed at a wall opposing to the first opening, and a door provided to the main body so as to open and close the first opening;
a first circuit including a heat generating element configured to generate heat by being supplied with power; and
at least one blower device,
wherein the main body includes:
a first chamber accommodating the first circuit and open at the first opening; and
a second chamber adjacent to the first chamber via a first partition wall and open at the first opening and the second opening,

wherein the door has a door opening penetrating the door and disposed so as to be communicable with the second chamber,
wherein, when the door closes the first opening, the door closes the first chamber and communicates the second chamber with the outside via the door opening, and
wherein the at least one blower device is disposed at least one of positions at the door opening, near the door opening, at the second opening, and near the second opening, and is configured to introduce and discharge air into/from the second chamber,
wherein the control device further includes a first heat sink disposed at the first partition wall,
wherein the first heat sink is disposed so that the first heat sink contacts air inside the second chamber and the heat of the heat generating element of the first circuit is transferable thereto,
wherein the first circuit includes a first heat generating element and a second heat generating element as the heat generating element,
wherein the first heat sink comprises at least two first heat sinks disposed so that the heat of the first heat generating element and the second heat generating element is transferable thereto, and
wherein the first heat sink to which the heat of the first heat generating element is transferable, and the first heat sink to which the heat of the second heat generating element is transferable are disposed in a direction intersecting with a direction of an air flow generated inside the second chamber by the blower device.
