Abstract: A cover for covering an opening of a socket formed by a housing comprises a body; one or more bosses extending from the body, a first locking mechanism, a second locking mechanism, and a release tab. The bosses movably couple the body to the housing such that the body is movable between first and second positions. The first locking mechanism releasably attaches to the housing to secure the body in the first position. The second locking mechanism releasably attaches to the housing to secure the body in the second position. The release tab aids in detaching the first locking mechanism from the first wall and the second locking mechanism from the second wall. When the body is in the first position, the body allows access to the socket through the opening. When the body is in the second position, the body prevents access to the socket through the opening.

Abstract: A method for converting a computing device from a first configuration to a second configuration is provided. A power supply unit of the computing device is moved from a first location at a second end of the computing device to a second location at a first end of the computing device. The power supply unit is rotated such that a power interface of the power supply unit is visible from the first end of the computing device. A set of fans of the computing device is rotated such that airflow direction of the set of fans matches an airflow direction of the power supply unit at the second location. Converting the computing device from the first configuration to the second configuration can allow communication ports to be accessed from a front end or from a rear end of the computing device.

Abstract: An air baffle insertable between a chassis wall and a computer component such as a GPU and heat sink mounted on a GPU tray to divert air flow to the computer component is disclosed. The air baffle includes a single sheet having a bottom panel, a top panel, and a pair of parallel side walls. Each of the parallel side walls are connected to the bottom and top panels. A first end wall is joined to the side walls and the top and bottom panel. The first end wall directs air flow toward the computer component.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides for a computer chassis in which a base component can have a plurality of guide slots. A top cover of the chassis can have a plurality of guide pins where each guide pin is configured to fit into a guide slot. The base component and top cover also comprise an elastomer positioned adjacent to at least some of the guide slots. The elastomer pushes against a guide pin to force the guide pin into the guide slot. The elastomer therefore reduces or eliminates a gap between the base component and the top cover.

Abstract: A flexible shoulder pin module includes a barrel having an annular head portion, a cylindrical body portion, and a through-hole extending from a top surface of the body portion to a bottom end of the head portion; and a shoulder pin having a shaft portion and a shoulder portion formed thereon. The through-hole includes a first portion adjacent to the top surface of the body portion, and a second portion having a greater diameter than the first portion. The shaft portion is insertable through the first portion into the second portion. The shoulder portion is configured to adjustably extend above the top surface of the body portion to clamp a panel thereto. A compressible device is configured to be disposed around the shaft portion and secured by a stopper panel, which is coupled to the shaft portion and placed adjacent to the head portion within the second portion.

Abstract: A removable lever apparatus for inserting and removing computer equipment from a chassis module of a server rack includes a central rotatable structure, a long arm connected to and extending in a first direction away from the central rotatable structure, and a short arm connected to and extending in a second direction away from the central rotatable structure. The central rotatable structure includes a rotation stopper for limiting rotation about the axis of rotation between an inserting position and a removing position. The central rotatable structure also includes a retention structure for maintaining the coupling to the tray when the central rotatable structure is in a position other than the inserting position. The short arm is configured to engage a side wall of the chassis module when the central rotatable structure is rotated.

Abstract: A tiered locking mechanism secures a component card to a printed circuit board and includes a base, a top slider structure, and a biasing element. The base includes a first-tier side wall and a coupling structure configured to engage the PCB. The top slider structure includes a second-tier side wall along with protrusions having a beveled edge. The top slider structure is slidable between locked and unlocked positions. The unlocked position includes the protrusions being displaced away from a component card engagement side relative to the locked position. A bottom one of the protrusions and the first-tier side wall form a first receiving slot in the locked position. Atop one of the plurality of protrusions and the second-tier wall form a second receiving slot. The biasing element is configured to urge the top slider structure toward the locked position and to compress as the top slider structure moves away from the component card engagement side.

Abstract: A release mechanism is disclosed that can facilitate safely and efficiently removing an expansion card from a computing device. The release mechanism can be installed on a motherboard around an expansion slot, and can include an opening that permits access to the expansion slot to allow an expansion card to be installed therein. When removal of the expansion card is desired, a handled of the release mechanism can be pulled, causing contact surfaces of the release mechanism to push the expansion card away from the expansion slot with even force, removing the need to tilt the expansion card.
