Abstract:
A server rack assembly having a housing configured to receive at least one server sled. A first fan associated with the housing, the first fan having a first size and a second fan having a second size. The first fan and the second fan are operated at different speeds to maintain a predetermined temperature in the server rack assembly.
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present technology provide systems and methods for configuring a power supply unit (PSU) of a rack system. The rack system contains one or more nodes, each of which can has a first housing and a second housing. The first housing stores a power supply unit (PSU) that can be easily accessed by a technician or a user from a front of the rack system. The second housing stores a plurality of computer-readable memory devices and has a first portion and a second portion. The first housing is positioned in the front of the rack system and in a central portion of the rack system between the first portion and the second portion of the second housing.
Abstract:
An apparatus for reverse mounting an electronic device in a server housing is provided. The apparatus includes a first bracket, a second bracket, and a coupling. The first bracket couples to the device body and extends outward from the device body toward a front rail of the server housing. The first bracket includes a first end configured to releasably couple to front rail of the server housing. The second bracket includes a protrusion that extends outward from the device body in an opposite direction relative to the first bracket. The coupling includes a first portion that couples to a rear rail of the server housing and a second portion defining a channel that receives the protrusion of the second bracket.
Abstract:
In some implementations, cooling fans can be mounted in a server chassis using a multi-level vibration dampening mechanism to reduce the transmission of fan vibrations to the server chassis. For example, a plurality of cooling fans can be housed within a plurality of fan cages. The plurality of fan cages can be mounted to a cooling fan tray. The cooling fan tray can be mounted to the chassis. For example, the mountings used to attach the fan cages to the tray and the tray to the chassis can include resilient vibration dampers. Thus, the vibrations generated by the cooling fans can be more effectively reduced and operation of vibration sensitive server components can be improved.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for distributing power within a rack system, including a power distribution unit (“PDU”) and multiple servers, are provided. The internal power cable contains a first or a second power socket at one of its ends. The first power socket can be located on the same side as t the PDU while the second power socket can be located close to a PSU of the PSUs that are located on a different side of the PDU. The first power socket of the internal power cable can be connected to the PDU via a first short power cable. The PSU located on the different side of the PDU can be connected to the PDU via a second short power cable between the second power socket of the internal power cable and a power socket of the PSU, the internal power cable, and the first short power cable.
Abstract:
A server assembly including a housing having a slidable tray transitionable between an open configuration and a closed configuration. A plurality of tray bodies disposed in the slidable tray, each of the plurality of tray bodies configured to removably receive at least one component module. The plurality of tray bodies arranged in rows, one behind the other, thereby having an first tray body and a second tray body. The second tray body is transitionable between a loading configuration and stored configuration. The storing configuration, the second tray body is arranged adjacent to the first tray body such that the receiving assembly is inaccessible. The loading configuration, the second tray body is translated relative to the tray and the first tray body such that the receiving assembly is accessible.
Abstract:
A detachable handle includes a body, a connector, a pivot joint, and a transmission element. The body includes a plurality of I/O ports. The pivot joint connects the body to the connector for switching a rotational angle between the body and the connector. The transmission element embedded in the body electrically connects the I/O ports to the connector. The pivot joint includes a first pivot plate and a second pivot plate pivoted to each other. A terminal of the first pivot plate is fixed to the body, and a terminal of the second pivot plate is fixed to the connector. An electronic device using the detachable handle is also disclosed.

Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present technology provide systems and methods for mounting and dismounting a computing component (e.g., a HDD) of a server system. The server system contains one or more drawers, each of which can host a plurality of computing components. A computing component can have a side surface attached to a lever via a hinge. When the computing component is placed into a designated location of a drawer, pressing a first end of the lever in one direction can cause a second end of the lever to interact with at least one portion of the drawer and further cause the computing component to move into a close position or out of the close position.
