    Abstract: A method and system controls cooling system leaks in a rack. The method includes monitoring leak detection sensors positioned at computer systems and below sections of a liquid conveyance system. In response to determining if a signal was received from one of the leak detection sensors that is indicative of a leak, the leak detection sensor and the corresponding one of the plurality of computer systems associated the received signal is determined. Power is disconnected to the corresponding one of the computer systems and a signal is transmitted to implement moving first and second valves from open to closed positions. The first valve is positioned within the liquid conveyance system between a hot rack manifold and a thermal contact structure associated with the computer system associated with the received signal. The second valve is positioned within the liquid conveyance system between a cool rack manifold and the thermal contact structure.

    Abstract: A cable management bracket including a cable management base, one or more cable clamps, and a cable distribution block is disclosed. The cable management base has a base panel, and a first sidewall and a second sidewall between a front end and a rear end of the base panel. The first sidewall and the second sidewall extend from and along opposite sides of the base panel. The one or more cable clamps are disposed on the base panel. Each cable clamp has two opposing arms separated by a slot. Each of the two opposing arms are flexibly movable to accommodate a cable in the slot. The cable distribution block is disposed at the rear end of the base panel. The cable distribution block has a plurality of through holes, each through hole configured to accommodate the cable through an opening that is flexibly movable in a horizontal direction.

    Abstract: A retractable handle assembly for an electronic device includes a base plate having a base plane, a sliding member, and a handle. The sliding member is movable along a first axis that is parallel to the base plane. The handle is movable along a second axis that is perpendicular to the base plane. The sliding member has a ramp surface and a wedge surface. The handle has a mating wedge surface. The ramp surface and the wedge surface are angularly oriented relative to the base plane. The ramp surface is angled to receive a first force, which is perpendicular relative to and directed towards the base plane. In response to the first force, the sliding member moves along the first axis and the wedge surface moves towards the mating wedge surface. The wedge surface moving towards the mating wedge surface causes a second force to deploy.

    Abstract: A power supply system includes a housing having a top cover with a cutout portion formed near a rear end thereof. The cutout portion is configured to mechanically receive, one at a time, either a first bracket or a second bracket to be coupled to the top cover. The first bracket is configured to accommodate a first power supply component. The second bracket is configured to accommodate a second power supply component of a different type than the first power supply component. Each of the first bracket and the second bracket has a length and/or a width greater than a length and a width, respectively, of the cutout portion. Each of the first power supply component and the second power supply component is either a conventional power supply unit, or a busbar adapter sled configured to electrically connect with a busbar cable that supplies power from a remote power source.

    Abstract: A connector consisting of a body, a first slot, a second slot, a first terminal, and a second terminal is disclosed. The first slot is provided on the body to receive a first printed circuit board (PCB). The second slot is provided on the body to receive a second PCB. The first slot and the second slot are separate and distinct slots. When the first PCB and the second PCB are received in the first slot and the second slot, respectively, the first terminal electrically connects the first PCB and the second PCB, and the second terminal connects to only the second PCB. Providing the first slot on the connector allows adding expansion cards, control cards, and the like to enhance functionality of computing systems.

    Abstract: A tiered immersion cooling system includes a chassis, a cabinet frame slidably mounted to the chassis, an upper immersion tank, and a lower immersion tank. The cabinet frame is slidable between a first internal position and a first external position. Sliding motion of the cabinet frame is in a horizontal direction along a depth of the chassis. The upper immersion tank is slidably mounted to the chassis. The upper immersion tank is slidable with the cabinet frame in the horizontal direction. The upper immersion tank slides relative to the cabinet frame, in a vertical direction along a height of the chassis. The lower immersion tank is positioned below the upper immersion tank in the vertical direction. The lower immersion tank is mounted to slide independently from the cabinet frame, in the horizontal direction. The lower immersion tank slides between a second internal and a second external position.
