1. An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a first housing containing a heat-generating component and a rotary pump;
a second housing separated from the first housing, the second housing containing a display device;
a third housing induding a first edge and a second edge, the first edge being rotatably coupled to the first housing, and the second edge being rotatably coupled to the second housing, wherein, the third housing comprises (i) a tube to convey a medium from the rotary pump and (ii) a plurality of fins coupled to the tube to radiate heat from the medium circulated through the third housing and returned back to the first housing.

Abstract
According to one embodiment of the invention, an electronic apparatus comprises a main unit, a display unit and a support unit. The main unit contains a heat-generating component and a heat-receiving portion. The heat-receiving portion is thermally connected to the heat-generating component. The support unit supports the display unit on the main unit and contains a heat-radiating portion that radiates the heat of the heat-generating component. The heat of the heat-generating component is transmitted to a heat-transferring medium and transferred to the heat-radiating portion through the heat-transferring medium.
