Abstract:
A cooling unit for cooling a heat generating component comprising:a vessel filled with a refrigerant, the vessel including a heat receiving portion for receiving heat from the heat generating component, a heat dissipating portion for dissipating the heat from the heat generating component, and a heat transfer portion for transferring the heat from the heat generating component, transmitted to the heat receiving portion, to the heat dissipating portion via the refrigerant, at least the heat receiving portion of the vessel having a part opposite to the heat generating portion, the part being formed of a soft heat conduction sheet capable of elastic deformation, and the heat receiving portion being fixed to the heat generating component by means of a bracket such that the heat conduction sheet is in thermal contact with the heat generating component; and a heat sink connected thermally to the heat dissipating portion.
