MOUNTING ASSEMBLY
An example mounting assembly is provided herein. The mounting assembly includes a first cage, a second cage, a rail member, a rigid cable member, a latch member, and a lock mechanism. The rail member to move the first cage and the second cage between an installed position, an access position, and a transitional position. The rigid cable member to move with the first cage and the second cage along the rail member. The latch member to retain the first cage and the second cage in the installed position. The lock mechanism to hold the second cage in the access position.
STORAGE MEDIUM ACCOMMODATING APPARATUS, INDUSTRIAL COMPUTER, AND METHOD
A storage medium accommodating apparatus for accommodating at least one storage medium of an industrial computer is provided. The accommodating unit includes at least one side wall including at least one guide groove, where the at least one guide groove includes an engagement section; and at least one support unit, where the at least one storage medium may be accommodated inside the at least one support unit, the at least one support unit includes a guide rail that is supported in a manner of being movable on the at least one guide groove, the at least one support unit includes an elastically deformable counter-engagement section, and the counter-engagement section is automatically engaged into the engagement section in a shape-fitting manner in a state that the at least one support unit is pushed into the accommodating unit.
Data storage device mounting structure
A data storage device mounting structure includes a data storage device insertable through an insertion slot into an accommodation chamber in an electronic device, a mounting assembly including a mounting plate affixed to one corner of the data storage device and a metal wire rod having a middle part thereof bent backwards to provide a curved arch portion and two opposite ends thereof connected to one end of the mounting plate, and an operating handle fixedly fastened to the curved arch portion of the metal wire rod and operable by the user to drag the metal wire rod in pulling the data storage device out of the accommodation chamber of the electronic apparatus conveniently with less effort. The mounting assembly and the operating handle have a small size, and are easy and inexpensive to manufacture.
MULTI-FUNCTION HANDLE FOR INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM (IHS) CHASSIS
A multi-function handle for Information Handling System (IHS) chassis is described. In some embodiments, a chassis may include a sled configured to be installed in a rack; a drawer configured to slide in and out of the sled; and a front panel comprising a handle and a selector, the selector configured to allow a user to selectively pull from the rack using the handle: (i) the drawer without the sled, or (ii) the sled and the drawer. A method may include accessing a chassis installed in a rack, the chassis comprising: (i) a drawer configured to slide in and out of a sled; and (ii) a front panel having a handle and a selector; determining that the selector is in a first position; and pulling the handle to slide the drawer without the sled outward from the rack.

Carrier used for mounting data storage drive into enclosure
A data storage carrier includes a middle member with at least one handle between ends of the middle member. Side members are coupled to the respective ends of the middle member via living hinges. The side members each include at least two protrusions configured to interface with side mounting holes of a data storage drive. The living hinges are bendable so that the protrusions interface with the side mounting holes of the drive and the middle member interfaces with a back side of the drive.

Rack Module
A method for adding an electronic component to, removing an electronic component from, or exchanging an electronic component of a rack module mounted in a rack. The rack module includes a frame. The method includes the following: moving a tray connected to the frame from a first position to a second position, in the first position the tray is received within the frame such that an open face of the tray is inaccessible, and in the second position the tray lies outside the frame at an angle to the frame such that the open face is accessible; adding, removing, or exchanging the electronic component through the open face; and moving the tray from the second position to the first position after the electronic component has been added, removed, or exchanged.
