Modular Card Cage Accessories
Various types of electronic devices may be mounted in a chassis in order to facilitate interfacing with the devices, containing the devices, provide cooling systems which may remove heat from the electronic devices, etc. Delivering adequate cooling air flow to each electronic device in a chassis may be an important issue for the proper functioning, lifetime, or other characteristics of electronic devices contained in a chassis. Some electronic devices may be particularly challenging to cool due to various design characteristics. Other electronic devices may have other requirements that are not well served by existing chassis designs. For example, some electronic devices may benefit from additional electrical and/or thermal connections. Embodiments presented herein describe a novel design for a modular card cage accessory that may be configured to modify air flow and/or to meet particular requirements of an electronic device in a chassis, among various possibilities.
INTERFACES FOR COUPLING A MEMORY MODULE TO A CIRCUIT BOARD, AND ASSOCIATED DEVICES, MODULES, AND SYSTEMS
This disclosure relates generally to interfaces between memory modules and circuit boards. More specifically, this disclosure relates to interfaces for coupling a memory module to a circuit board such that the memory module is arranged in a plane that is substantially parallel with a plane of the circuit board. Various embodiments disclosed herein include interfaces, memory modules including interfaces or portions of interfaces, and/or circuit boards including interfaces and/or portions of interfaces. Associated devices and systems are also disclosed.

VIDEO CAMERA HANDLE AND STOP SWITCH ASSEMBLY
A stop switch assembly includes a movable block, a pressing portion, a driving rod, a driving pin and an elastic member. The movable block includes a first pair and a second pair of opposite side surfaces, a hole is defined in the movable block passing through the first pair of side surfaces and an inclined slot is defined in the movable block passing through the second pair of side surfaces. The driving pin is inserted in the driving rod with its head movably arranged in the inclined slot. The elastic member is arranged between the pressing portion and the movable block for applying an elastic bias to the pressing portion to allow the pressing portion being away from the movable block. When the pressing part is pressed, the driving pin slides in the inclined slot and drives the movable block moving between a first position and a second position.
Thermal module assembly for a computing expansion card port of an information handling system
A thermal module assembly, comprising: a computing expansion card; a thermal interface material (TIM) positioned on a surface of the computing expansion card; a thermal plate; and a carrier configured to hold the computing expansion card with the TIM positioned on the surface of the computing expansion card, the carrier include a first end positioned opposite to a second end, wherein the thermal plate is removably coupled to the carrier at the first end and the second end to provide an uniform pressure between the thermal plate, the TIM material, and the computing expansion card.
STORAGE DEVICE, LATCH ASSEMBLY AND STORAGE DEVICE ASSEMBLY COMPRISING THE SAME
A storage device assembly is provided. The storage device assembly includes a latch assembly having a body and a hook mounted on the body, the hook having elasticity and having distal ends thereof bend away from the body; and a storage device to be joined to the latch assembly. The storage device includes a memory module including a memory connector, and a first enclosure and a second enclosure that encase the memory module except for an opening through which the memory connector is accessible. The first enclosure includes fixing holes corresponding to the distal ends of the hook and configured to accommodate the distal ends of the hook in a configuration in which the storage device is joined to the latch assembly.
THERMAL MODULE ASSEMBLY FOR A COMPUTING EXPANSION CARD PORT OF AN INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM
A thermal module assembly, comprising: a computing expansion card; a thermal interface material (TIM) positioned on a surface of the computing expansion card; a thermal plate; and a carrier configured to hold the computing expansion card with the TIM positioned on the surface of the computing expansion card, the carrier include a first end positioned opposite to a second end, wherein the thermal plate is removably coupled to the carrier at the first end and the second end to provide an uniform pressure between the thermal plate, the TIM material, and the computing expansion card.
Computing, Controlling Device: Intercheangable, Programmable, Pluggable with integral Controller and Radio
This Device is a small “Container” which holds a general-purpose programmable computing device (processor), interface electronics, a radio and a “Connector”. The Container plugs into an “Equipment” which is to be controlled, monitored or tested. Equipment is any tool, apparatus, machine, or process which requires a controlling function.
A single “Container” design has electronics which interface with a variety of connected - similar or different—equipments. Interface signals are pre-assigned to unique pins on the Connector. Different equipment then employ the unique signals as needed. Software senses and identifies attached equipment, selects, and runs the appropriate pre-installed application. A subset of the electronics is active for each unique equipment interface. Different equipments use both common and unique pins as needed. Modifications Hardware/software modifications are not needed for different equipment—a “Plug and Play” device.
The radio is used for remote monitoring, software updates and status checks.
Display device
A display device includes a control substrate provided in the display device, a first connecting part provided on the control substrate and connecting a controller to the control substrate, the controller configured to control the display device, and a second connecting part provided on the control substrate and connecting a user interface unit to the control substrate, the user interface unit connected to an external device.
PORTABLE SOLID-STATE DRIVE MODULE
The present disclosure relates to a portable solid-state drive (SSD) module. The portable SSD module includes a case, an SSD, a light-emitting device (LED) module and a main bracket. The case may have a window. The SSD may be arranged in the case. The LED module may be arranged in the case to indicate an operation of the SSD through the window. The main bracket may be arranged in the case to support the LED module. Therefore, the LED module may be readily and firmly combined with the case.
