A crossbar is provided that is operable to be removably installed in a sled for a modular server and/or information handling system, for example a network equipment building system. The crossbar includes a frame, a keystone portion of the frame forming a keystone air duct, and a riser guide extending from the frame. The keystone portion is operable to direct air flow through the keystone air duct towards a heat sink and/or a CPU. The riser guide is operable to align a riser to be plugged into a motherboard installed in the sled. The frame is operable to be a structural component that is substantially coupled to the sled chassis.

Crossbar and sled for a modular server and/or information handling system

A card support is provided that passively and automatically adapts to variations in the length of an electronic card. When a card is inserted into a slotted bar of the card support, variations in the length of that card are adjusted for by the compression or expansion of a spring disposed between the slot and a supporting face.

Adjustable card support

An apparatus and method are provided to facilitate the cooling of different configurations of cards within a chassis, e.g., a card riser cage. Embodiments disclose telescoping air dams that may be reconfigured to adapt to different combinations of half height and full height cards to fill vacancies in the chassis, hindering the flow of air through those vacancies, thereby redirecting the flow elsewhere and improving the cooling of the cards. By being reconfigurable, embodiments improve the ease that card cages may be reconfigured by reducing the number of parts necessary for such reconfigurations.

Telescoping air dam

An apparatus provides power for computer devices, such as servers, facilitating their testing outside of the typical server rack. A platform of supports the computer device while providing for a power supply unit beneath the platform to be connected to the device. The location of the power supply beneath the platform decreases the combined footprint of the apparatus and device under test. The power supply unit may be configured to connect to standard voltages, allowing the computer device to be tested where connection to rack-level voltage is not convenient.

Busbar adapter and test stand

A telescoping rail is provided that may be fitted to a rack from the interior of the rack, and that may be adjusted from the interior to adapt to racks of different depths. The rail includes an outer rail with pins configured to engage a rear rack post. A track in the outer rail is provided with anti-rotational nuts. An inner rail is fastened to the outer rail with screws passing through the inner rail to the anti-rotational nuts. The combined length of the inner and outer rails may be adjusted for the particular cabinet depth by sliding the anti-rotational nuts along the track and the screws tightened. The inner rail may be fastened to a front rack post. A third, moving rail attaches to a device to be housed in the rack, with the moving rail sliding within groves in the inner rail.

A structural subassembly for use in an information handling system chassis may include a first portion, a second portion, a common wall, and one or more mechanical features. The first portion may be configured to receive one or more of a first type of information handling resource. The second portion may be configured to receive one or more of a second type of information handling resource. The common wall may divide the first portion from the second portion. The one or more mechanical features may be configured to engage with one or more respective mechanical features of the information handling system chassis in order to perform at least one of guiding of the subassembly relative to the information handling system chassis during insertion or removal of the subassembly into or from the information handling system chassis and retention of the subassembly relative to the information handling system chassis.

Structural subassembly for use in an information handling system chassis

In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, an information handling system may include a chassis and a circuit board. The chassis may have one or more structural posts. The circuit board may mechanically couple to the chassis, and the circuit board may comprise a substrate having formed therein one or more through-holes and one or more hooks each configured to mechanically couple the circuit board to the chassis via a corresponding structural post of the one or more structural posts, each of the one or more hooks comprising one or more mounting features, wherein each of the one or more mounting features is sized and shaped to engage with a corresponding one of the one or more through-holes in order to mechanically couple such hook to the substrate.

Systems and methods for coupling a circuit board to an information handling system chassis

In accordance with these and other embodiments of the present disclosure, a system may include a top plate, a bottom plate mechanically coupled to the top plate; a plurality of first connectors and a second connector. The plurality of first connectors may be located on an exterior surface of the top plate such that each of the plurality of first connectors is configured to electrically couple to a corresponding connector of an information handling resource as the information handling resource is mechanically supported by the top plate. The second connector may be electrically coupled to each of the plurality of first connectors and may be located on an exterior surface of the bottom plate such that the second connector is configured to electrically couple to a circuit board.

Mezzanine-style structure with integrated wiring harness

A component electrical coupling apparatus includes a board comprising a first surface and a second surface located opposite the first surface. A first surface mount technology connector is coupled to the first surface of the board. A second surface mount technology connector is coupled to the second surface of the board and located immediately opposite the first surface mount technology connector, the second surface mount technology connector operable to couple to a different type of connector than the first surface mount technology connector. The component electrical coupling apparatus may be coupled to a component and to an information handling system to allow the component having a connector to be coupled to an information handling system having a different type of connector than the component.

Method and apparatus for electrically coupling a component to an information handling system

a hard drive carrier is disclosed that includes a detachable tab on the top wall of the frame of the carrier. When the tab is detached a hard drive can be placed in the hard drive carrier in a forward position. When the tab is in place, the hard drive can be retained in the frame of the hard drive carrier in a rear position. The top wall of the frame and the top guide rail include a set of alignment holes to accommodate the positioning of the hard drive in a forward position or a rear position.

Hard drive carrier

A centrifugal impeller for a hand-held leaf blower-vacuum apparatus includes a central hub for mounting to the drive shaft of the leaf blower-vacuum motor and a plurality of serrated vanes for shredding drawn-in lawn debris and ejecting the shredded debris from the leaf blower-vacuum apparatus. The serrated vanes have a plurality of sharp corners on the leading edges of the vanes on which the drawn-in debris is incident. The sharp corners reduce the debris more rapidly and to a smaller size, thereby preventing the jamming of the impeller by an overload of debris.
