Abstract:
A mobile computer system having a casing (12) which accommodates at least one central processing unit (14) for processing digital data as well as a storage device (16, 56, 58) for storage of digital data, and having interface connections (20) for input and/or output of digital data, wherein the casing (12) has external dimensions (B, H, T) such that the computer system is suitable for building into a cavity of a vehicle (1) provided for building-in a car radio or the like, wherein the central processing unit (14) is arranged at a distance but thermally connected to the inner side of a casing section (36) via a heat-dissipating plate (38) to remove heat and air cooling means (42, 44, 40) are provided to produce a heat-dissipating air flow (L) past the central processing unit (14) and wherein the air cooling means (42, 44, 40) transfers the air flow after this has passed over the central processing unit along the outside of this casing section (36), and wherein the air cooling means comprise an electric fan (42) built in a side wall (40) of the casing, which takes air from the inside of the casing and emits it in a direction alona the outside of this side wall (40).
