Abstract: Silencing equipment provided with one or more flow channels through which cooling air flows has a flow channel forming member that forms the flow channel, and an acoustic absorbent member that is fixed to the flow channel forming member. A resonance type silencer is formed on a wall surface of the flow channel by providing a cavity for the resonance type silencer in the acoustic absorbent member and an aperture for the resonance type silencer in a portion of the flow channel forming member. The resonance type silencer sets a frequency of noise necessary to be reduced based on a peak frequency of noise generated by a fan. The silencing equipment further has a slide member which slides by a slide mechanism to adjust the area of the top of the aperture. The silencing equipment for electronic devices capable of cooling heat generating sections thereof with air has a small and simple structure and can improve a silencing effect by blowing air.

Abstract: An electronic device has a frame and a back board having plural logical units and power supply units mounted thereon. The logical units and the power supply units are alternately located on both sides of the back board in the center of the frame so that the power supply units mounted on one side of the back board may feed a power to the closest logical units mounted on the other side. Further, the air flow paths to be circulated through the logical units and the power supply units are formed so that each unit may be efficiently cooled by the air fed by an air fan unit. As a result, the feeding voltage becomes uniform and the cooling efficiency is improved.

Abstract: The cooling apparatus has cooling fins attached to heat generating units of electronic devices and provided with a plurality of elemental fins. According to one embodiment, the cooling apparatus has a first cooling fin composed of elemental fins that are uniform in fin density in the height direction of the cooling fin from a fin base. The cooling apparatus also has a second cooling fin composed of elemental fins with a zero or small fin density at the lower portion close to a fin base of the cooling fin as compared with the fin density at the upper portion of the cooling fin. The first and second cooling fins are positioned adjacent to one another. Various different embodiments of cooling fins are disclosed.
