Abstract

An electronic component cooling apparatus is provided that can prevent a reduction in a heat dissipation effect on an electronic component with a pushing force toward a heat sink thereof being applied to the opposite wall of a casing thereof. Pushing force transferring sections 37 for transferring a pushing force from mounting tools 35 to a heat sink 3 through contact with leading ends of radiation fins 11 are integrally formed on a pair of wall sections 25a of a casing 21. The pushing force transfer sections 37 have a shape that can distribute the pushing force and transfer distributed force to the heat sink 3 so as to prevent a force applied to an electronic component MPU by the pushing force from being locally and extremely increased.
