DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0011] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to the illustrated examples. FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating an audio amplifier 1 according to this embodiment. FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating the acoustic amplifier 1 according to this embodiment. FIG. 3 is a six-view diagram of the audio amplifier 1 with the door 42 closed. FIG. 4 is a six-view diagram of the audio amplifier 1 with the door 42 open. 1 to 4, an audio amplifier 1 in this embodiment is an example of an amplifier according to the present invention, and in this example is an audio frequency preamplifier (preamplifier). The audio amplifier 1 amplifies an electrical signal input from an audio device, adjusts the sound quality, and outputs the signal to a main amplifier. The audio amplifier 1 has an amplifier main body 2 and a control device (not shown) installed inside the amplifier main body 2. The amplifier body 2 has an exterior part 4 made of lacquerware. Exterior part 4 is a housing formed by combining, for example, Wajima lacquer panels, and includes a door 42 that is installed in a part of exterior part 4 so as to be rotatable about a predetermined axis. Door 42 is provided with an opening 420 formed in a size and shape sufficient to display display part 52 (described later), and in this example, opening 420 formed in a circular shape is provided. Opening 420 is provided in a position that overlaps with display part 52 when door 42 is closed. The control device electrically amplifies the acoustic signal and includes a display unit 52 that displays the volume or sound pressure to be output. The control device is installed at a predetermined distance from the bottom surface of the exterior part 4 from the viewpoint of passive cooling. The display unit 52 is provided at a position that overlaps with the opening 420 when the door 42 is closed.
[0012] FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating the ventilation structure of the audio amplifier 1. As shown in FIG. As illustrated in FIG. 5, the audio amplifier 1 further has a first ventilation hole 45 provided on the bottom surface of the exterior part 4 and a second ventilation hole 46 provided on the top surface or side surface of the exterior part 4. The first ventilation port 45 is an air supply ventilation port for taking in outside air into the amplifier main body 2 . The second vent 46 is an exhaust vent for discharging the air inside the amplifier main body 2 to the outside. The first ventilation opening 45 is provided at a lower position than the second ventilation opening 46. As a result, air is supplied into the inside of the amplifier main body 2 through the first ventilation opening 45 and is exhausted to the outside of the amplifier main body 2 through the second ventilation opening 46, thereby cooling the control device.
