The present invention provides a cooling apparatus which is easy to build
and to fix it to electronic devices, superior in thermal conduction and
heat dissipation, and possible to make thin the total configuration of
the apparatus. The liquid cooling unit 9 and the air cooling unit 12 are
formed in a unit. A heat absorption surface 19 of the liquid cooling unit
9 is contacted or bonded to the heat generation component such as the CPU
and the heat generator, which have the largest power consumption and also
locally generate heat within a small area in the box 2. In the liquid
cooling unit 9, a liquid cooling pump 14 composed of an electromagnetic
pump is arranged for circulating the coolant in the flow path 10. The
heat generated by the heat generation components such as CPU 6, heat
generator 7, and the like is thermally diffused with heat conduction into
the whole liquid cooling unit 9 by circulating the coolant with the
liquid cooling pump 14.
