Abstract
A locking mechanism for a device assembly in an information handling system is disclosed. The locking mechanism includes a bulkhead, a compression spring, a leaf spring, and a lever. The compression spring is located within a cavity of the first portion of the bulkhead. A first end of the compression spring is located beyond a surface of the first portion when the compression spring is in a first position. An end of the leaf spring is in physical communication with the first end of the compression spring. The lever is in physical communication with the second portion of the bulkhead and includes an outer surface in physical communication with the leaf spring. When the lever interfaces with a portion of the information handling system and the lever is in a locked position, a connector of an electronic board is fully mated with a connector of the information handling system.
