A method for controlling a user interface of a modular energy system. The modular energy system comprises a header module and a display screen on which the user interface is displayed. The modular energy system can detect attachment of a first module thereto, control the user interface to display one or more first user interface elements corresponding to the first module, detect attachment of a second module to the modular energy system, control the user interface to resize the one or more first user interface elements to accommodate display of one or more second user interface elements corresponding to the second module, and control the user interface to display the one or more second user interface elements. The various UI elements can correspond to the particular module type that is being connected to the modular energy system.

Disclosed is a modular energy system that comprises a first module, comprising a first panel, and a first connector attached to the first panel. A portion of the first connector extends past a first edge of the first panel. The modular energy system further comprises a second module, comprising a second panel, and a second connector attached to the second panel. The second connector is aligned with a second edge of the second panel, and the second connector defines a cavity. The second module is coupled to the first module, wherein the portion of the first connector that extends past the first edge of the first panel is positioned within the cavity defined by the second connector.

The invention relates to a modular field device, which is simply and safely assemblable. For this, the field device comprises: a housing having an electrical plug contact arranged in a housing interior, a mechanical securement, which is embodied to secure a first electronic component in the housing interior, a second electronic component, which is arrangeable in the housing interior and which is electrically contactable with the plug contact, and an elastic connection, which is embodied to connect the first electronic component elastically with the second electronic component. A division of tasks between two electronic components enables a modular design of the field device with universally applicable electronic components. In addition, the elastic connection provides a simple, mechanical securement of the first electronic component in the housing with simultaneous, safe, electrical connection of the second electronic component with the plug contact.

An electro-mechanical housing for forming electronic components' wire leads to make plug-together parts or building blocks using only the wire leads of the electronic components to make electronic circuits incorporated in the mechanical structures. A reusable electro-mechanical plug that has means for attaching external devices to the plug-together parts or building blocks using only the wire leads from these external devices and a non-conductive housing to form an electro-mechanical plug.

A multi-board system for an electronic device that includes an heat spreader between at least two boards. In examples, the multi-board system may include a stack-PCB architecture on one side of the heat spreader and one or more boards on an opposite side of the heat spreader from the stack-PCB. The heat spreader may comprise a vapor chamber and/or include a graphite layer or core to transfer heat along a length of the heat spreader.

A module for a networking node is disclosed. The module includes a Printed Circuit Board (“PCB”), one or more circuits mounted to the PCB and a faceplate. The faceplate includes a middle plate, a first side plate, and a second side plate. The first side plate extends from the middle plate at an obtuse angle relative to the middle plate towards a first side and back of the module. The second side plate extends from the middle plate, opposite to the first side plate, at an obtuse angle relative to the middle plate towards a second side and the back of the module.

A lever assembly for coupling a computer module to a chassis includes a base lever, a locking tab, and a flexible element positioned between the base lever and the locking tab. The base lever is rotatably coupled to the computer module. The base lever is rotatable between an installed position and an opened position. The locking tab is rotatably coupled to the computer module for engaging a locking surface on the chassis when in a locked position. The locking tab is rotatable between the locked position and an unlocked position. The flexible element is configured to bias the locking tab into the locked position when the base lever is in the installed position. Rotation of the base lever to the opened position induces rotation of the locking tab to the unlocked position.
