Abstract:
An electronic apparatus comprising: a housing; a keyboard fitted to the housing; a semiconductor element mounted inside the housing; a first thermal conductive member connected to the semiconductor element at a keyboard side thereof; a second thermal conductive member connected to the semiconductor element at a bottom side thereof opposite the keyboard side; a first heat radiating member provided on a rear side of the keyboard; a second heat radiating member provided on a bottom of the housing and thermally connected with the second thermal conductive member connected to the semiconductor element; and a thermal conductive duct, one wall of which is thermally connected with the first heat radiating member provided on the rear side of the keyboard and an opposite wall of which is thermally connected with the first thermal conductive member connected to the semiconductor element, wherein a part of heat generated by the semiconductor element is radiated by the thermal conductive duct and the remainder of the heat generated by the semiconductor element is radiated from the second heat radiating member provided on the bottom of the housing and the first heat radiating member provided on the rear side of the keyboard.
