Abstract

Disclosed is a liquid cooling system mounted on an electronic device. The liquid cooling system includes flow path ( 20 ) through which a refrigerant circulates, and pump ( 21 ) and reserve tank ( 22 ) arranged on flow path ( 20 ). A part of the side face of reserve tank ( 22 ) is set back to the vicinity of the center of reserve tank ( 22 ) to form concave portion ( 40 ). on the front center of concave portion ( 40 ), outlet ( 42 ) through which the refrigerant flows out is formed.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A liquid cooling system mounted on an electronic device, comprising:
 a flow path through which a refrigerant circulates; and   a pump and a reserve tank arranged on the flow path,   wherein a part of a side face of the reserve tank is set back to the vicinity of a center of the reserve tank to form a concave portion and an outlet through which the refrigerant flows out is formed on a front center of the concave portion.   
     
     
         2 . The liquid cooling system according to  claim 1 , wherein the outlet is located before the center of the reserve tank with respect to a flow-out direction of the refrigerant. 
     
     
         3 . The liquid cooling system according to  claim 2 , wherein the outlet is located at the center of the reserve tank in a direction orthogonal to the flow-out direction of the refrigerant. 
     
     
         4 . The liquid cooling system according to  claim 1 , wherein an inlet through which the refrigerant flows in is formed in the front face of the concave portion. 
     
     
         5 . A liquid cooling system mounted on an electronic device, comprising:
 a flow path through which a refrigerant circulates; and   a pump and a reserve tank arranged on the flow path,   wherein a center axis of the reserve tank is a Z axis, an axis orthogonal to the Z axis at a center of the reserve tank and parallel to a flow-out direction of the refrigerant is a Y axis, and an axis orthogonal to the Z axis at the center of the reserve tank and orthogonal to the flow-out direction of the refrigerant is an X axis, a part of a side face of the reserve tank is set back deeper than an X-Y plane in the Y axis direction to form a concave portion and an outlet through which the refrigerant flows out is formed on a front center of the concave portion.   
     
     
         6 . The liquid cooling system according to  claim 5 , wherein the outlet is disposed in a position shifted from an intersection point of the X axis, the Y axis, and the Z axis in a direction opposite to the flow-out direction of the refrigerant on the Y axis. 
     
     
         7 . An electronic device comprising the liquid cooling system according to  claim 1 . 
     
     
         8 . An electronic device comprising the liquid cooling system according to  claim 5 .
