Abstract

An electronic device comprises: a shielding object that is arranged at least in a plurality of directions and shields noise; and a Helmholtz silencer that is arranged in a direction where the shielding object does not exist, the shielding object and the silencer being arranged with respect to a noise source causing noise such as a driving source that is arranged inside an apparatus body, wherein a neck portion of the Helmholtz silencer is directed to the noise source, a plurality of such Helmholtz silencers are provided to correspond to at least two kinds of frequencies, and installed number of the Helmholtz silencers corresponding to at least two kinds of the frequencies respectively, is made different depending on a distance from the noise source.
