Abstract
An air shroud apparatus includes a base wall. A plurality of support walls extend from the base wall in a spaced apart orientation from each other. A component housing is defined between the support walls and the base wall. A reinforced section is located on the base wall and includes a reinforcing beam extending between the plurality of support walls and a plurality of reinforcing members extending between the base wall and the reinforcing beam and located in a spaced apart orientation between the plurality of support walls such that a plurality of air passageways are defined between the reinforcing beam and the reinforcing members. The air shroud may be coupled to an information handling system chassis in order to direct airflow from a fan in the chassis to components in the chassis.
