A system and method for detecting blank modules includes an information handling system including at least one computing component, a modular chassis, a management module, and one or more sensors. The modular chassis includes one or more slots where each slot is operable to receive either the computing module or a blank module. The computing module interfaces with the management module whereby the management module is operable to detect the presence of one or more of the computing modules in one or more of the slots. The sensors are associated with each of the slots and detect if one or more of the blank modules are installed in one or more of the slots. In addition, the sensors provide an indication to a user when one or more of the slots are empty and do contain neither a computing module or a blank module.

A cam groove provided in a chassis is furnished with a first cam portion permitting an eject button to move only forward from being depressed, and a second cam portion permitting the button to shift between its depressed and protruding states. A slide unit interlocks with a switching lever spring-urged toward a push-out plate and moves away from a recording-medium travel path by being pushed by a recording medium when plugged into the chassis. In standby, the switching lever interlocks with the first cam portion, advancing into the travel path. With a recording medium bieng plugged into the chassis, by the eject button being pushed a first time the switching lever withdraws from the travel path and shifts into the second cam portion, permitting the eject button to protrude backward. By the eject button being pushed a second time, the push-out plate and slide unit are put into cooperation.

An electronics module comprises a housing; and a plurality of electronic and electrical components for example fans. The module includes electromagnetic shielding for example perforated panels side walls etc. that is associated with the housing and/or the electronic components, and which provides a Faraday cage for the electronic components. The shielding is constructed so that one or more of the components can be removed from the module while the module is in operation substantially without affecting the integrity of the Faraday cage. The module enables certain components thereof to be replaced without adding to the downtime of the system or increasing electromagnetic interference.

A rack for an electronics assembly comprises: (i) a supporting frame (22, 24); (ii) a slider mechanism (4) having a first part (6) that is supported by the frame and a second part (8) that supports the electronics assembly, the mechanism configured to allow the assembly to be moved out of the rack; and (iii) a cable management system for supporting cables located at the rear of the assembly. The cable management system comprises an articulated arm having a first end coupled to the assembly and a second end coupled to the first part (6) of the slider mechanism so that bending of the arm accommodates movement of the electronics assembly. The cable management system ensures that the assembly can be pulled out of the rack by the required distance irrespective of the depth of the rack.

An information processing apparatus comprises a module that can be loaded into a storage chamber of a housing. The module includes a tray supporting a main body and an operating lever rockably supported on the tray. The operating lever includes a first push portion, which is adapted to touch a first engaging portion of the housing to push in the tray when the lever is rocked to a first position, and a second push portion, which is adapted to touch a second engaging portion of the housing to push out the tray when the lever is rocked to a second position. The first and second engaging portions project into the storage chamber, and their regions of contact with the operating lever are situated inside the storage chamber.

A module carrier of computer comprises a tray, a transmission apparatus, a pushing arm, and a spring sheet. The transmission apparatus comprises a lever, a lever arm, and a fastening bolt. The tray is employed to carry the module of computer. The transmission apparatus is employed to release the fastened status of the tray, wherein the lever is employed to start the module carrier of computer so as to perform the ejection motion of the module of computer; the lever arm is employed to provide the transmission action and one end of the lever arm is joined to the lever; and the fastening bolt is employed to fasten the tray and its one end joins to the lever arm. The pushing arm is employed to push and eject the tray. The spring sheet is attached to the pushing arm for providing the needed spring force for ejecting the tray. After a user operates the lever, the lever arm will rotate and the fastening bolt will move to release the fastened status of the tray, and then the spring sheet provides a spring force to the pushing arm enabling the pushing arm to push and eject the tray.

A universal media module for use with a data storage library system containing at least one storage array for holding at least one universal media module. The universal media module is removable from the storage array. The universal media module is capable of containing a variety of media cartridges of various sizes, and the media cartridges may vary in size in at least one dimension. The universal media module has a housing having a top wall, bottom wall, side walls, rear wall, and an open front; a mechanism for removably attaching the housing to the data storage library system; and at least one media storage slot formed by supporting members engaging the side walls of the housing and extending along the side walls from the open front to the rear wall. Optionally, each media storage slot can have: an adaptive part selector apparatus to contact the media cartridge and being deflectable along at least one dimension to securely hold a media cartridge within the media storage slot; a media cartridge identification apparatus to engage the identification feature of a media cartridge and to identify the media cartridge type to the operator; and an automatic media cartridge retention apparatus to disengage the media cartridge's retention feature when the media storage module is attached to the data storage library system and to engage the media cartridge's retention feature when the media storage module is removed from the data storage library system.
