Apparatus and associated methodology contemplating an enclosure apparatus for a solid-state device (SSD). The apparatus includes a rigid case having a wall defining an internal cavity. A surface in the wall defines one of a recess or a protuberant tab exposed to the internal cavity. A cover is configured to connect with the case in a closed position in which the cover and the case are connected together to cooperatively enclose the internal cavity. The cover defines the other of the recess or the tab, the tab sized to be removably insertable into the recess to form an articulable joint connecting the cover and the case together in the closed position.

A tolerance ring having a first axial end, a second axial end, and a central axis, the tolerance ring including an annular band; a plurality of protrusions, all of the plurality of protrusions extending from the annular band; and a guide portion extending from the annular band towards the first axial end of the tolerance ring, where the guide portion includes a guide surface that is curved in an axial section.

A locking device and a functional module including the locking device are provided. The locking device includes a mounting frame with a latching column, and a locking assembly locking or releasing the mounting frame. The locking assembly includes a main body pivotally connected with the mounting frame, a latch rotatably connected with the main body, and a sliding cover slidably mounted on the main body and can drive the latch to rotate relative to the main body. When the latch is engaged with the latching column, the locking assembly is locked to the mounting frame. When the sliding cover is moved relative to the main body, the latch rotates relative to the main body to disengage from the latching column. The latch does not need to be rotated separately, and unlocking efficiency of the locking device is improved.

A device includes an interposer card that includes a processor, such as a system on a chip (SoC), and memory devices. The interposer card mounts to a mass storage device and has a shape that corresponds to a size of an end of the mass storage device to which the interposer card is mounted. The SoC of the interposer card is configured to implement an individual server for the mass storage device to which the interposer card is mounted. In some embodiments, a data storage system includes multiple mass storage devices mounted in a chassis and coupled to one or more backplanes, wherein interposer cards are connected between the mass storage devices and the one or more backplanes.

There is provided an optical disc drive that can maintain contact between an optical disc and a conveying roller, while allowing the number of components to be reduced. A conveying roller includes a right roller that is rotatable around an axis and a left roller that is rotatable around an axis. The right roller portion and the left roller portion are arranged in a lateral direction. One of a right end portion of the right roller portion and a left end portion of the left roller portion is movable in an up-down direction relative to the other of the right end portion of the right roller portion and the left end portion of the left roller portion, with a relative position between the axis and the axis unchanged.

A conveying roller contacts and conveys an optical disc toward a position of a spindle motor when the conveying roller is in a first roller position, and does not contact the optical disc when the conveying roller is in a second roller position. A slider places the conveying roller in the first roller position when the slider is in a first operation member position, and places the conveying roller in the second roller position when the slider is in a second operation member position. A first transmission mechanism transmits rotation of a loading motor to the conveying roller. A second transmission mechanism transmits the rotation of the loading motor to the slider. A distribution mechanism engages with each of the first transmission mechanism and the second transmission mechanism to distribute the rotation of the loading motor to the first transmission mechanism and the second transmission mechanism.

The Jukebox Menu Module provides an improved means to view record or compact disc titles on jukeboxes that utilize a mechanical display system for seeing available music tracks. Thru a video display, the jukebox menu module displays compact disc or record content in the jukebox and allows the user to create, edit and view the content easily without the need to modify any of the wiring or functions of the jukebox itself. It simply replaces the existing original equipment, which is a mechanical module. Once the Jukebox Menu Module is installed, the jukebox menu buttons are used to change the video pages in a similar manner as the mechanical module flipped physical pages.

Provided is a video recorder including a case body comprising a space for housing a plurality of electronic parts, the plurality of electronic parts including: an optical disk drive (ODD) holder attached to an ODD; and a hard disk drive (HDD) holder attached to an HDD; a front panel on which a front printed circuit board (PCB) is mounted and which covers a front side of the case body; and a rear panel on which a rear PCB is mounted and which covers a rear side of the case body.

In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a vibrational isolator may include at least one supporting section and at least one attachment member mechanically coupled to the at least one supporting section and configured to mechanically couple to a chassis, such that when disposed in a chassis, the at least one supporting section suspends from the chassis and is configured to support vibration-generating equipment. In accordance with these and other embodiments of the present disclosure, a method may include forming at least one supporting section and forming at least one attachment member mechanically coupled to the at least one supporting section and configured to mechanically couple to a chassis, such that when disposed in a chassis, the at least one supporting section suspends from the chassis and is configured to support vibration-generating equipment.
