An apparatus is disclosed that comprises a first structure configured to be connected to a chassis, a second structure configured to be attached to the first structure, the second structure including at least one first connector and a damper disposed between the first structure and the second structure, the damper configured to allow the second structure to move in one dimension relative to the first structure when the first connector is moved in a direction to be coupled to a second connector that is not aligned with the first connector.

A connector gap between a module connector mating surface and the backplane connector of a chassis may be eliminated through a mechanism that forcefully pushes (or pulls) the module towards the backplane and/or forcefully pushes (or pulls) the backplane toward the module. A spring-loaded or resilient element may be used to fasten the module in a way that effectively fills any designed-in and tolerance-induced gap in the connector interface, allowing the connector to fully seat. In addition, a gasket or other compressible member may be included at the connector mating interface. The gap in the connector interface may be reduced by introducing adjustable card cage members that are capable of being set during the assembly or manufacturing process using special alignment fixtures. The gap in the connector interface may also be reduced by introducing a higher tolerance capable manufacturing process, such as machining, to the card cage sub-assembly.

A rack adapted for receiving one or more components is disclosed. The rack includes a backplane, a pair of side panels extending from the backplane and internal support members on each side to receive and mechanically guide an initial alignment of components upon their initial insertion in the rack. A pair of male connectors mounted to the backplane is configured to mate with a corresponding pair of female connectors of each component to mechanically guide a final alignment of each component when the component is further inserted in the rack. Mechanical guidance may also be provided by, or supplemented with, a connection capable of providing liquid cooling to the rack. A system including the rack and the component inserted in the rack is also disclosed.

A drawer type installation for computer equipment within a computer infrastructure environment. A chassis is configured to contain computer equipment that is pre-cabled and coupled with a first connector. The chassis adapted to insert into a rack with a receiver chassis. The first connector operatively couples with a second connector that is connected with a second wiring to the computer infrastructure environment.

A portable interface system comprising an interface device and a portable base part, wherein the interface device is fixable detachably without tools in an attachment area of the base part and wherein the interface system is designed in such a way that the interface device is activated if the interface device is detached from the base part.

A server rack includes a server and a connector dock. The server includes first signal connector receptacles and first power connector receptacles. The connector dock includes blind signal connectors that mate with the first signal connector receptacles and blind power connectors that mate with the first power connector receptacles when the server is installed into the server rack. The connector dock further includes second signal connector receptacles facing a back of the server rack, where each second signal connector receptacle is connected to an associated one of the blind signal connectors; and second power connector receptacles facing the back of the server rack, where each second power connector receptacle is connected to an associated one of the blind power connectors.

Systems and methods for a flexible Power Supply Unit (PSU) bay are described. In some embodiments, a chassis may include a surface and a PSU adaptor disposed on the surface, the PSU adaptor comprising a tab having a stopper coupled thereto, where the stopper is configured to: (a) resist movement, bending, or deformation of a board perpendicularly disposed with respect to the surface upon insertion of a first PSU into a PSU cage, and (b) move downward upon insertion of a second PSU into the PSU cage.

A curved display module and a display device, where the curved display module includes a back plate, a display panel and a display panel circuit board. The back plate includes a bottom plate and a side plate, where the side plate is at an outer periphery of the bottom plate, the bottom plate and the side plate together define an accommodating space to accommodate a backlight assembly, the display panel is on a side of the backlight assembly away from the bottom plate, the display panel circuit board is electrically connected to the display parcel through a flexible circuit board, and the display panel circuit board is at an outer side of the side plate.

The gap in the connector interface may also be reduced by introducing a higher tolerance capable manufacturing process, such as machining, to the card cage sub-assembly.

A tray assembly for positioning data storage devices is disclosed. The tray assembly includes a base, a backplane circuit board coupled to the base, an electrical connector coupled to the backplane circuit board, a first support bracket coupled to the base and moveable with respect to the base and the backplane circuit board, and a second support bracket coupled to the base. The second support bracket opposes the first support bracket and is moveable towards and away from the first support bracket to adjust a distance between the first support bracket and the second support bracket.
