Air duct and electronic equipment using the air duct

Abstract

Abstract of the DisclosureThe invention relates to an air duct for allowing cooling air to flow toward an electronic equipment, and provides the air duct for allowing cooling air to flow installed in a space in the equipment and also provides an electronic equipment using the same air duct. The air duct is structured to be formed of an elastic material, and has a duct body, a ventilation path, an intake part, and an exhaust part. The duct body is detachably installed in a space of an interior of the equipment, and the ventilation path through which air passes is formed in the duct body, and an intake part for taking air in the ventilation path and an exhaust part for exhausting air through the ventilation path are formed respectively in the duct body.

Description

Detailed Description of the InventionBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention:

[0002] The invention relates to an air duct for forming an air path in a space inside electronic equipment, particularly, an air duct having a structure which is easily disassembled and assembled and electronic equipment using the air duct.

[0003] 2. Description of the Related Art:

[0004] Heat radiation and cooling in electronic equipment are conventionally indispensable to prevent the deterioration and keep stability and reliability of the operation of the electronic equipment. A cooling fan has been generally used for cooling the electronic equipment, and heating portion such as heating components and the like is cooled by air which is taken in the electronic equipment. For example, if a cooling fan is installed at the rear panel side to exhaust air, cooling air is sucked from the front panel side and so forth into the electronic equipment and it flows in the electronic equipment so ...
