A cooling device is provided for cooling the inside of a main body of an electronic apparatus. The electronic apparatus includes the main body having a movable bottom surface portion and a display unit openable/closable relative to the main body. The cooling device is characterized by including means for transmitting an opening/closing angle of the display unit, and means for driving the movable bottom surface portion in accordance with the opening/closing angle of the display unit transmitted by the transmission means, to enlarge the inner space of the main body, thereby cooling the inside of the main body. Another cooling device is disclosed, which includes means for sucking a first gas, means for discharging the first gas sucked by the sucking means, and means for sucking and discharging a second gas by the action of the first gas discharged by the discharging means.

1. A cooling device for a computer housing having a main body and a display unit connected thereto, said cooling device comprising: means for sucking a first gas through a first air inlet of the cooling device; means for discharging said first gas sucked by said sucking means through a gas discharge outlet provided on a side of the cooling device; and means for sucking a second gas by the action of said first gas discharged by said discharging means through a second air inlet provided in a bottom surface of the cooling device at a position on the side of the gas discharge outlet and discharging said second gas through the same gas discharge outlet as the first gas is discharged so that a temperature rise of the main body is suppressed. 2. A cooling method for cooling a main body portion of a computer housing by a cooling device, said cooling method comprising the steps of: sucking a first gas through a first air inlet of the cooling device; discharging said first gas sucked at said sucking step through a gas discharge outlet provided in a side of the cooling device; sucking a second gas by the action of said first gas discharged at said discharging step through a second air inlet provided in a bottom surface of the cooling device at a position on the side of the gas discharge outlet; and discharging said second gas through the same gas discharge outlet as the first gas is discharged so that a temperature rise of the main body is suppressed. 3. An electronic apparatus having a cooling device for suppressing a temperature rise of a main body of the electronic apparatus, said electronic apparatus comprising: means for sucking a first gas through a first air inlet of the cooling device; means for discharging said first gas sucked by said sucking means through a gas discharge outlet provided in a side of the cooling device; means for sucking a second gas by the action of said first gas discharged by said discharging means through a second air inlet provided in a bottom surface of the cooling device at a position on the side of the gas discharge outlet; and discharging said second gas through the same gas discharge outlet as the first gas is discharged.
