Abstract

An integrated cooler for electronic devices comprises a heat exchange element, a heat transferring element and a blower with an electric drive. The heat exchange element comprises a base and heat exchanging means. The electronic device directly thermally connected with the base or the heat exchanging means by the heat transferring element. The blower comprises an inlet, an outlet and a drum type impeller comprises a disk with blades mounted on an axle fixed perpendicularly to the base. The heat exchanging means located at the inlet and/or at the outlet, thus ambient air flows through the inlet, the impeller and the outlet in a series way and in the directions perpendicular to the axle, so that the blower is a crossflow type blower. The electric drive comprises a rotor and a stator. The rotor made as the impeller having circumferential arrayed magnetic means. The stator comprises circumferential arrayed coils.
