摘要:
An aligning apparatus comprising: a back plane, the back plane comprising at least one back plane connector; at least one daughter card, the daughter card comprising: a lower edge, the lower edge comprising a scalloped surface proximal to a rear surface of the lower edge, and a ramped surface proximal to a front surface of the lower edge; and a daughter card connector, the daughter card connector configured to be removably connectable to the back plane connector; and at least two guide rails extending from the back plane, the guide rail comprising a rear ramp and a front ramp. A method of aligning a daughter card to a back plane, the method comprising: sliding the daughter card towards the back plane; lifting the front end of the daughter; lifting the back end of the daughter card after lifting the front end of the daughter card; and providing the back end of the daughter card with a degree of freedom to lift and lower in order to align to the back plane, after lifting the back end of the daughter card.

A system to improve an in-line memory module may include an edging carried by the in-line memory module to stiffen, support, protect, and/or aid in handling the in-line memory module. The system may also include guide ribs carried by the edging to facilitate positioning of the in-line memory module during installation. In one embodiment, the system includes a heat spreader to aid in cooling a plurality of heat sources carried by the in-line memory module. The system may further include a compliant member to regulate the heat spreader's positioning relative to the plurality of heat sources.

摘要:
An electrical connector and method for making power connections between multiple power conductors in a shielded power cord and electrical components in a metal cabinet having a panel with a receptacle therein for receiving the electrical connector. A connector core has power contacts connected to power conductors in the power cord for electrical connection with contacts in the receptacle in the metal cabinet when the connector is seated in the receptacle. A conductive foam member is provided around the front edge of said connector core for contact with the face of the panel member when the electrical connector is seated in the receptacle. A metal shield around the connector core and over said conductive foam member makes electrical contact between the conductive foam member and the metal shield for forming an electrical shield around said connector core. The metal shield is in electrical contact with the shield of the power cable. The conductive foam member is conductive fabric over a core of open-celled polyether polyurethane foam in a high resilency formula.

A spray shield for a quick-disconnect fitting of a liquid cooling system for a computing system. The spray shield includes a first shield element and a second shield element. The first shield element and the second shield element having interlocking members for removably engaging the first shield element to the second shield element, forming a shield sleeve suitable for surrounding a connection between a quick-disconnect fitting and an actuator fitting. The shield sleeve substantially shields surroundings from cooling liquid spray from the connection.
摘要:
Systems and methods are provided for cooling an electronics rack, which includes a heat-generating electronics subsystem across which air flows from an air inlet to an air outlet side of the rack. First and second modular cooling units (MCUs) are associated with the rack and configured to provide system coolant to the electronics subsystem for cooling thereof. System coolant supply and return manifolds are in fluid communication with the MCUs for facilitating providing of system coolant to the electronics subsystem, and to an air-to-liquid heat exchanger associated with the rack for cooling air passing through the rack. A controller monitors the system coolant and automatically shuts off flow of system coolant through the heat exchanger, using at least one isolation valve, upon detection of failure at one of the MCUs, while allowing the remaining operational MCU to provide system coolant to the electronics subsystem for liquid cooling thereof.
摘要:
Two independent poppets/valves that open and close independently as a quick connect coupling is mated and unmated are employed as part of a cooling system for high end data processing systems. More particularly, the present invention comprises a quick connect poppet valve having two internal, independently functioning sealing seats therein disposed within a serially connected flow path to prevent leakage and to minimize the effects of debris.

A connector assembly for a fluid cooling system for electronic components includes a first spray shield half having an open end and including a slot disposed in an outer surface of the first spray shield half. A sled is disposed at least partially in the slot and articulable therein. The sled has a ramp portion extending radially inwardly from a sled base. A male quick-release connector is disposed at least partially within the first spray shield half. A second spray shield half is insertable between the first spray shield half and the male quick-release connector. A female quick-release connector is disposed at least partially within the second spray shield half. The female quick-release includes a release feature, wherein articulation of the sled toward the female quick-release connector is capable of activating the release feature and disconnecting the male quick-release connector from the female quick-release connector.
摘要:
An enclosure having a top which is folded over at the sides forming vertical side walls, and a bottom wall having large cut out portions. A vertical divider is positioned in the middle of the enclosure for forming two side-by-side receptacles, each for receiving an electronic module in drawer-like fashion. A front portion of the enclosure is hinged by a continuous hinge such that the front portion swings from a closed position to an open position. A tab on the front of the vertical divider engages with a slot in the front wall of the swingable front portion when the front portion is in the closed position for adding rigidity to the enclosure when the front portion is closed. A locking slide arm is provided for locking the hinged front portion in either the open or closed positions.
