Electronic equipment
View Patent ↗In order to ensure waterproofing between a resin enclosure case and a heat sink, a canopy structure is provided in a portion, in which water is likely to penetrate, so as to prevent the water from entering the portion, thereby directing the water flow to the outside of the enclosure. This makes it easy to install and remove an electronic unit, so that an electronic component integrally formed with the heat sink can be easily replaced.
1. An electronic equipment comprising:
an electronic component installed in an enclosure with a cover and a case having an opening; and
an internal unit including a heat sink and a radiation fin extending from the heat sink in a direction substantially perpendicular thereto for radiating heat generated by the electronic component, the radiation fin being inserted into the opening,
wherein the heat sink has a canopy extending therefrom in a direction substantially perpendicular to the extending direction of the radiation fin at a position proximate to a bottom of the radiation fin, and
wherein the canopy is set so as not to exceed an area of the opening of the case.
2. The electronic equipment according to claim 1 , further comprising a water sealing portion including a groove and a rib between the case and the heat sink.
3. The electronic equipment according to claim 2 , further comprising a rib of the case in the bottom of the canopy in order to prevent spouted water from penetrating into the case.
4. The electronic equipment according to claim 2 , further comprising a plurality of the water sealing portions between the case and the heat sink.
5. The electronic equipment according to claim 1 , further comprising a rib of the case in the bottom of the canopy in order to prevent spouted water from penetrating into the case.
6. The electronic equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the canopy extends so as to cover a gap between the case and the heat sink.
7. The electronic equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the canopy has a slope portion which extends outwardly.
8. An electronic equipment comprising:
an electronic component installed in an enclosure with a cover and a case having an opening; and
an internal unit including a heat sink and a radiation fin extending from the heat sink in a direction substantially perpendicular thereto for radiating heat generated by the electronic component, the radiation fin being inserted into the opening,
wherein the heat sink has a canopy extending therefrom in a direction substantially perpendicular to the extending direction of the radiation fin at a position proximate to a bottom of the heat sink, and
wherein the canopy is set so as not to exceed an area of the opening of the case.
9. The electronic equipment according to claim 8 , further comprising a water sealing portion including a groove and a rib between the case and the heat sink.
10. The electronic equipment according to claim 9 , further comprising a rib of the case in the bottom of the canopy in order to prevent spouted water from penetrating into the case.
11. The electronic equipment according to claim 9 , further comprising a plurality of the water sealing portions between the case and the heat sink.
12. The electronic equipment according to claim 8 , further comprising a rib of the case in the bottom of the canopy in order to prevent spouted water from penetrating into the case.
13. The electronic equipment according to claim 8 , wherein the canopy extends so as to cover a gap between the case and the heat sink.
14. The electronic equipment according to claim 8 , wherein the canopy has a slope portion which extends outwardly.
