Claim:
1. A cooling mechanism comprising: a plurality of first circuit boards arranged in parallel with each other; a plurality of first fans configured to generate a cooling wind in a first flow path formed along the plurality of first circuit boards; a connection board arranged orthogonally to the first flow path and at a position different from a position of the first flow path, and configured to couple the plurality of first circuit boards; a plurality of second circuit boards arranged in parallel with each other and coupled by the connection board, and on an opposite side of the connection board, to the plurality of first circuit boards; and one or more second fans configured to generate a cooling wind in a second flow path formed at a position different from the position of the first flow path and along the plurality of second circuit boards, wherein the plurality of first fans face the first flow path and are disposed side by side in parallel with an aligning direction of the plurality of first circuit boards, and wherein a cross section of the first flow path orthogonal to a flow direction of the first flow path is wider than a cross section of the second flow path orthogonal to a flow direction of the second flow path.
