Liquid cooling device and electronic equipment provided with the same
First Claim
1. A liquid cooling device for an electronic equipment comprising:
- a closed circulating passage for circulating a liquid refrigerant;
a pump operating at a predetermined revolution for circulating the refrigerant;
a cooler removing a heat from an exothermic component using the liquid refrigerant;
a radiator radiating the removed heat; and
a reserve tank reserving the refrigerant, wherein a first set revolution is set to more than a revolution at which the pump is steadily operated;
the liquid cooling device is judged to continue operating in case the revolution of the pump is equal to or smaller than the first set revolution; and
a quantity of refrigerant is judged to be insufficient in case the revolution of the pump exceeds the first set revolution.

Abstract
A liquid cooling device according to the invention is based upon a liquid cooling device for a computer in which a cooler, a radiator, a pump and a reserve tank for reserving a refrigerant are provided to a closed circulating passage for circulating the refrigerant, the pump operating at a predetermined revolution circulates the refrigerant, the cooler removes heat from CPU using the refrigerant and the radiator radiates the removed heat, and is mainly characterized in that judgment means that judges that the operation is to be continued in case the revolution of the pump is equal to or smaller than the set revolution and judges that the quantity of the refrigerant is insufficient in case the revolution of the pump exceeds the set revolution is provided.
