[0049] At least one display 240 may be configured to provide visual information. For example, at least one display 240 may be configured to display information based on a slave processor (e.g., Figure 1According to an embodiment, at least one display 240 may be electrically connected to the printed circuit board 250. For example, at least one display 240 may be electrically connected to the printed circuit board 250 through a flexible printed circuit board. According to an embodiment, at least one display 240 may be coupled to at least one movable flange 230. For example, at least one display 240 may be disposed in a portion 230a of at least one movable flange 230 disposed in the housing 210. According to an embodiment, at least one display 240 may include a first display 241 and a second display 242. The first display 241 may be coupled to the first movable flange 231. The first display 241 may be disposed on the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. The first display 241 may face the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. The first display 241 may be spaced apart from the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. The second display 242 may be coupled to the second movable flange 232.

[0050] According to an embodiment, at least one display 240 may be movable in the housing 210. At least one display 240 may be movable relative to the first bracket 220. For example, at least one display 240 may be movable on the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. For example, at least one display 240 may be movable in a direction parallel to the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. According to an embodiment, the second display 242 may be movable in a direction approaching the first display 241 (e.g., -x direction) or in a direction away from the first display 241 (e.g., +x direction). According to an embodiment, at least one display 240 may be movable relative to the first bracket 220 by movement of at least one moving flange 230 relative to the first bracket 220. For example, the user may move at least one moving flange 230 by another portion 230b of at least one moving flange 230. According to an embodiment, the distance between the first display 241 and the second display 242 may be reduced or increased by movement of the first moving flange 231 and the second moving flange 232. For example, in the case where the first moving flange 231 moves in a direction (e.g., +x direction) close to the second moving flange 232 by an external force of the user, the pinion 222 meshed with the first rack gear 234a may rotate. By the rotation of the pinion 222, the second rack gear 234b meshed with the pinion 222 may move in a direction (e.g., -x direction) close to the first moving flange 231. As the first moving flange 231 moves in a direction close to the second moving flange 232 and the second moving flange 232 moves in a direction close to the first moving flange 231, the distance between the first display 241 and the second display 242 may decrease. For example, in the case where the first moving flange 231 moves in a direction (e.g., -x direction) away from the second moving flange 232 by an external force of the user, the pinion 222 meshed with the first rack gear 234a may rotate. By the rotation of the pinion 222, the second rack gear 234b meshed with the pinion 222 can move in a direction away from the first moving flange 231 (e.g., +x direction). As the first moving flange 231 moves in a direction away from the second moving flange 232 and the second moving flange 232 moves in a direction away from the first moving flange 231, the distance between the first display 241 and the second display 242 increases. Through at least one moving flange 230, the distance between the first display 241 and the second display 242 can correspond to the interpupillary distance of the user. When the distance between the first display 241 and the second display 242 is adjusted to correspond to the interpupillary distance, the electronic device 200 can provide a three-dimensional virtual reality to the user.

For example, the second bracket 260 may be disposed between the printed circuit board 250 and the first bracket 220.
[0053] The fan 270 may generate an airflow for cooling the housing 210 and the components located inside the housing 210.

According to an embodiment, the region 251 of the printed circuit board 250 may face the heat sink 280. For example, when the printed circuit board 250 is viewed vertically (e.g., in the +z direction or the -z direction), the region 251 of the printed circuit board 250 may at least partially overlap with the heat sink 280. According to an embodiment, in the region 251 of the printed circuit board 250, an electronic component having relatively high heat generation among a plurality of electronic components provided in the printed circuit board 250 may be provided. For example, the electronic component provided in the first region 251 of the printed circuit board 250 may include the processor 120. When the heat sink 280 faces the region 251 of the printed circuit board 250, heat generated from the electronic components of the printed circuit board 250 may be dissipated to the outside of the housing 210.
[0055] According to an embodiment, the heat sink 280 may pass through the airflow generated by the fan 270.

According to an embodiment, the heat sink 280 may be coupled to the second bracket 260. For example, the heat sink 280 may be disposed between the first battery 261 and the second battery 262. According to an embodiment, when the housing 210 is viewed from above (e.g., in the -y direction), the heat sink 280 may at least partially overlap with the fan 270.
[0056] According to an embodiment, air outside the housing 210 may be introduced into the housing 210 through the inlets 214 and 215 by virtue of the airflow generated by the fan 270. The air introduced into the housing 210 through the inlets 214 and 215 may be delivered to components (e.g., at least one display 240 and / or the printed circuit board 250) in the housing 210. Heat generated in the housing 210 may be transferred to the air introduced into the housing 210. The air heated in the housing 210 may move toward the fan 270. As the air passes through the radiator 280 and the outlet 216 and is discharged to the outside of the housing 210, the interior of the housing 210 may be cooled.
[0057] At least one heat dissipation member 290 may cool the inside of the housing 210. For example, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may transfer heat generated from at least one display 240 to the fan 270. According to an embodiment, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be coupled to at least one display 240 and the first bracket 220. According to an embodiment, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may pass through at least one through hole 221. For example, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may extend from a surface of at least one display 240 facing the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. At least one heat dissipation member 290 may pass through at least one through hole 221 and extend to another surface 220b of the first bracket 220. For example, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may include at least one of graphite and metal, but is not limited thereto.
[0058] According to an embodiment, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may include a first heat dissipation member 291 and a second heat dissipation member 292. The first heat dissipation member 291 may be disposed on a surface of the first display 241 facing the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. For example, the first heat dissipation member 291 may contact the first moving flange 231. The first heat dissipation member 291 may pass through the first through hole 221a. The second heat dissipation member 292 may be disposed on a surface of the second display 242 facing the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. For example, the second heat dissipation member 291 may contact the second moving flange 232. The second heat dissipation member 292 may pass through the second through hole 221b. According to an embodiment, the first heat dissipation member 291 may be spaced apart from the second heat dissipation member 292. For example, the first heat dissipation member 291 and the second heat dissipation member 292 may be disconnected from each other. However, not limited thereto, the first heat dissipation member 291 and the second heat dissipation member 292 may be connected to each other or may be integrally formed.
[0059] According to an embodiment, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may include a first region 290a and a second region 290b. The first region 290a may be attached to a surface of at least one display 240 facing the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. According to an embodiment, the size of the first region 290a may correspond to the size of the surface of at least one display 240 facing the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. For example, the area of the first region 290a may correspond to the area of the surface of at least one display 240 facing the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. However, it is not limited thereto, and according to an embodiment, the area of the first region 290a may be greater than the area of the at least one display 240. For example, the area of the first region 290a may have a size corresponding to the cross section of at least one moving flange 230. The second region 290b may be provided on the other surface 220b of the first bracket 220. The second region 290b may be attached to the other surface 220b of the first bracket 220.

[0060] According to an embodiment, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may transfer heat dissipated from at least one display 240 to the other surface 220b of the first bracket 220. For example, the heat dissipated from the at least one display 240 may pass through the at least one through hole 221 through the at least one heat dissipation member 290. The heat passing through the at least one through hole 221 may be conducted to the other surface 220b of the first bracket 220 through the at least one heat dissipation member 290. The heat conducted to the other surface 220b of the first bracket 220 may be dissipated to the outside of the housing 210 by the airflow generated by the fan 270 facing the other surface 220b of the first bracket 220. For example, in the case where at least one heat dissipation member 290 is omitted, the heat dissipated from the at least one display 240 may be discharged only by the airflow generated by the fan 270. The electronic device 200 according to an embodiment may provide a structure capable of dissipating the heat generated by the display 240 to the outside of the housing 210 by conduction of at least one heat dissipation member 290 attached to at least one surface of the display 240.
[0061] According to an embodiment, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may penetrate at least one through hole 221. When at least one heat dissipation member 290 penetrates at least one through hole 221, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may quickly transfer heat dissipated from at least one display 240 to the fan 270. For example, in a case where at least one heat dissipation member 290 does not penetrate at least one through hole 221, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be provided only on the surface 220a of the first bracket 220. In a case where at least one heat dissipation member 290 is provided only on the surface 220a of the first bracket 220, heat dissipated from at least one display 240 may be conducted to the entire first bracket 220 through at least one heat dissipation member 290. In a case where heat is conducted to the entire first bracket 220, heat may not be quickly dissipated to the outside of the housing 210. The electronic device 200 according to an embodiment may provide a structure capable of quickly dissipating heat dissipated from at least one display 240 to the outside of the housing 210 through at least one heat dissipation member 290 passing through at least one through hole 221. For example, since the second region 290 b of the at least one heat dissipation member 290 faces the fan 270 on the other surface 220 b of the first bracket 220 , heat emitted from the at least one display 240 may be quickly dissipated to the outside of the housing 210 through the fan 270 .
[0062] According to an embodiment, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may transfer heat to at least one moving flange 230. For example, at least one heat dissipation member 290 may transfer heat radiated from at least one display 240 to a portion 230a of at least one moving flange 230 surrounding at least one display 240. For example, the heat transferred to at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be transferred to at least one moving flange 230 in contact with at least one heat dissipation member 290. For example, the heat transferred to at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be transferred to at least one moving flange 230 spaced apart from at least one heat dissipation member 290. The at least one heat dissipation member 290 transferring heat to at least one moving flange 230 may prevent heat from being concentrated on at least one display 240.
[0063] As described above, the electronic device 200 according to the embodiment may provide a structure capable of quickly dissipating heat generated from at least one display 240 to the outside of the housing 210 through the first region 290a of at least one heat dissipation member 290 attached to the surface of the at least one display 240. The electronic device 200 according to the embodiment may provide a structure capable of quickly dissipating heat generated from at least one display 240 to the outside of the housing 210 through the second region 290b of at least one heat dissipation member 290 facing the fan 270.
[0064] Figure 3a is a diagram showing an example of an exemplary electronic device according to an embodiment Figure 2a A cross-sectional view taken along line BB' of Figure 3b is a diagram showing an example of an exemplary electronic device according to an embodiment Figure 2a A cross-sectional view taken along line BB'.
[0065] refer to Figure 3a and Figure 3b According to an embodiment, the printed circuit board 250 may face a surface 270 a of the fan 270 . Another surface 270 b of the fan 270 opposite to the surface 270 a of the fan 270 may face a second region 290 b of the at least one heat dissipation member 290 .
[0066] According to an embodiment, a portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be disposed in at least one through-hole 221. The portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be disposed between the first region 290a and the second region 290b. The portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may connect the first region 290a and the second region 290b. The portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may pass through at least one through-hole 221. For example, heat generated by at least one display 240 may be transferred to the first region 290a attached to the surface of the at least one display 240. The heat transferred to the first region 290a may be transferred to the second region 290b through the portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290. The heat transferred to the second region 290b facing the other surface 270b of the fan 270 may be dissipated to the housing (e.g., Figure 2a , Figure 2b and Figure 2c The outside of the housing 210).
[0067] According to an embodiment, a portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be deformable in at least one through hole 221 according to movement of at least one display 240 relative to the first bracket 220. For example, a portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be deformable in accordance with movement of the first display 241 relative to the first bracket 220. For example, a portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be bent in at least one through hole 221, but is not limited thereto. According to an embodiment, a portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be foldable in at least one through hole 221. For example, in a case where the distance between the first display 241 and the second display 242 is reduced due to movement of the first display 241 relative to the first bracket 220, a portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be folded. For example, in a case where the distance between the first display 241 and the second display 242 is increased due to movement of the first display 241 relative to the first bracket 220, a portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be unfolded. For example, in the case where the at least one heat dissipation member 290 is not deformable, the at least one heat dissipation member 290 may be damaged due to the movement of the at least one display 240 relative to the first bracket 220. Since the at least one heat dissipation member 290 is deformable, the electronic device 200 according to the embodiment can provide a structure capable of reducing damage to the at least one heat dissipation member 290 due to the movement of the at least one display 240.
[0068] According to an embodiment, the portion 290c of at least one heat dissipation member 290 may include a plurality of extension portions 290d. The plurality of extension portions 290d may be connected to each other. The shapes of the plurality of extension portions 290d may be deformed by the movement of at least one display 240 relative to the first bracket 220.
