    Abstract: An air-duct assembly for a server comprises a main portion and an extension piece. The main portion has a first end region for receiving air from a fan and a second end region with a first attachment feature. The extension piece has a second attachment feature for mating with the first attachment feature. The extension piece guides the air from the second end region of the main portion to a terminal end of the extension piece. The air-duct assembly can be used with a first heat exchanger in a first configuration in which the extension piece is mated to the main portion, and the first heat exchanger is located within the extension piece. The air-duct assembly can also be used with a second heat exchanger in a second configuration in which only the main portion is used by itself and the second heat exchanger is located within the main portion.

    Abstract: A computer chassis can include a top cover that can be secured and removed without the need for tools. Sidewalls of a chassis base can include receiving slots that receive bosses of the top cover. A latch receiver mounted to a bottom surface of the chassis base can receive a sliding body of a latch assembly of the top cover. The computer chassis can be assembled by placing the top cover on the chassis base such that the bosses are placed into the receiving slots, and such that the sliding body fits within the latch receiver. In this position, rotation of a lever of the latch assembly can force the top cover to move with respect to the chassis base, pushing the bosses of the top cover towards distal ends of the receiving slots of the chassis base, thus securing the top cover to the chassis base.

    Abstract: A ruler device module is disclosed that includes top and bottom plates that are parallel, with the bottom plate defining a tray where the bottom plate extends beyond the top plate. The module further includes a pair of side plates on opposite sides of, and extending between, the top and bottom plate, with each side plate including a slot. Partitions are perpendicular to and between the top and bottom plates forming bays between adjacent partitions and the top and bottom plates. A handle structure is between the top and bottom plates and includes a handle configured to rotate between a recessed position and a use position. A nut structure is between the top plate and the bottom plate. The nut structure includes an aperture configured to engage a fastener of a chassis to secure the ruler device module to the chassis.

    Abstract: An air-duct module for a server comprises a main body that includes an upper wall and a plurality of side walls extending downwardly away from the upper wall. The main body further includes a plurality of channel walls extending from the upper wall and defining a cable-routing channel located within the main body. The cable-routing channel receives an electronics cable that extends across the main body. The air-duct module has an air passage for guiding air across a heat exchanger within the server. The air-duct passage is defined by the upper wall, the plurality of side walls, and at least some of the plurality of channel walls.

    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.
