Abstract
A chassis having a pivotable bracket is disclosed. The bracket pivots between an up position to permit an internal cable to be coupled to the bracket and pivots to a down position to form a hood for the passage of heated air into the interior of the computer system. When a component is inserted in the computer system, the component contacts the bracket and forces the bracket to move from the up position to the down position.
