摘要:
A combination of EMI-shield-retention features molded onto a bezel for an equipment enclosure. The features collectively fasten a notched and cutout EMI shield to the inner surface of the bezel without requiring any tools or fasteners. Several −Z-retention features provide surfaces for the EMI shield to lie flat against the inner surface of the bezel, while several X, Y-retention features protrude through holes and notches cut in the EMI shield to further retain the EMI shield. Finally, +Z-retention features along one edge of the bezel provide flanges for the EMI shield to slide under, while +Z-retention features, on the opposite edge of the bezel from the flanges, snap over top of the EMI shield.
摘要:
An assembly comprises a frame adapted to mount an electronic device having a thickness within a range of thicknesses. The frame is adapted to assemble to a heat sink assembly after the electronic device is mounted. The assembly further comprises at least one spring adapted to secure the electronic device to the frame.
摘要:
An apparatus in one example comprises a reversible fan of an electronic module that rotates in a clockwise direction if the electronic module is communicatively coupled in a first position and a counterclockwise direction if the electronic module is communicatively coupled in a second position.
摘要:
A multi stage mounting printed circuit board system and method is presented. In one embodiment, a multi stage mounting printed circuit board system includes a first printed circuit board for mounting electrical components on. A first printed circuit board interface component is coupled to the first printed circuit board. The first printed circuit board interface component communicatively couples the first printed board to a second printed board via a second printed circuit board interface component. A plurality of printed circuit board extractors are coupled to the first printed circuit board. The plurality of printed circuit board extractors couple the first printed circuit board to card guides (e.g., a single pair of card guides in which the second printed circuit board is mounted).
摘要:
A bracing apparatus is disclosed that has a component located within an opening in a cantilevered end of a heatsink. The component has a form factor that is expandable for stabilizing the heatsink at a given elevation relative to a printed circuit board. The bracing apparatus includes a tensioning device located within an opening in the component. When deployed, the tensioning device causes the component to expand. Also included in the bracing apparatus is a coupling medium for coupling the component to the printed circuit board.
摘要:
A heat dissipation apparatus comprising a base and a plurality of fins connected to the base and extending out from the base at a non-orthogonal angle to the base.
摘要:
A pivot component of an apparatus in one example is coupled with a first circuit board that comprises a first connection component. The pivot component controls a relative alignment of the first connection component with a second connection component of a second circuit board for an engagement of the first connection component with the second connection component.
摘要:

One embodiment of the invention involves a method to assemble an air-flow balancing card guide frame and one or more substrates. A second embodiment of the invention involves a method to design an air-flow balancing card guide frame. A third embodiment of the invention involves an assembled air-flow balancing card guide frame and one or more substrates.
摘要:
A retention assembly comprises a hinged load plate configured for rotational closure over a component and compression of a pre-compressed spring that distributes force of the spring across the component in tool-less retention of the component.
摘要:
An assembly comprises a frame configured to mount an electronic device and assemble to a heat sink. The assembly further comprises at least one self-locking fastener adapted to lock into place and secure the heat sink to the frame on aligned compression of the heat sink toward the framed.
