| 20090161310 | SERVER CHASSIS WITH ACCESS FLAP - A server chassis includes a base defining an opening, a rotating plate, a sliding plate, and first and second elastic members. The base includes a middle plate opposite to the opening and defines a space communicating with the opening. The rotating plate defines a plurality of first air holes. The sliding plate defines a plurality of second air holes. The rotating plate is rotated toward the middle plate when the functional module is inserted into the space, the sliding plate abuts against the middle plate and slides toward the opening, and the second air holes align with the first air holes. The second elastic member restores the rotating plate to obstruct the opening when the functional module is drawn out, and the first elastic member restores the sliding plate to make the second air holes be staggered with the first air holes. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20090168328 | SERVER CHASSIS WITH ACCESS FLAP - The invention relates to an access flap for shielding an opening defined in a server chassis. that the access flap includes a rotating plate, a sliding plate, and a resilient member. The rotating plate is pivotably mounted to a side of the opening of the server chassis. The rotating plate defines a plurality of first air holes therein. The sliding plate is slidably attached to the rotating plate. The sliding plate defines a plurality of second air holes therein. The resilient member includes two ends connected to the rotating plate and the sliding plate. The rotating plate can rotate and the sliding plate can slide when a functional module passes through the opening to enter into the server chassis. Thereby, he second air holes of the sliding plate are aligning with the first air holes of the rotating plate. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20090255099 | LATCH APPARATUS - A latch apparatus includes a holder, a locking member capable of being received in the holder and a driving member connecting to the locking member. The holder includes an accessing hole in one of the sidewalls thereof. The locking member includes a locking portion and is movably placed between a first position and a second position. When the locking member moves to the first position, the locking portion extends out of the holder via the holder accessing hole. When the locking member moves to the second position, the locking portion is received in the holder. The driving member is capable of be manipulated to slide and cause the movement of the locking member from the first position to the second position. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20090290311 | MOUNTING ASSEMBLY FOR STORAGE DEVICE - A mounting assembly includes first and second brackets. The first bracket is capable of receiving storage devices therein, and includes a first board. The first board includes a first end, and a blocking piece. The second bracket is capable of receiving storage devices therein, and includes a second board. The second board includes a first protrusion, and a second protrusion. The second board has first and second positions. At the first position, the second bracket is received in the first bracket, the first end engages with the first protrusion to prevent the second bracket form moving toward a first direction, and the blocking piece engages with the second protrusion to prevent the second bracket form moving toward a second direction opposite to the first direction. At the second position, the second bracket is departed from the first bracket. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20110043992 | MOUNTING APPARATUS FOR DATA STORAGE DEVICE - A mounting apparatus is provided to hold a number of data storage devices each including opposite sidewalls. The mounting apparatus includes a bracket, a number of fasteners, and a number of fixing members. The fasteners are fixed to the sidewalls of each data storage device, respectively, and each fastener includes a head portion abutting the corresponding sidewall. Each fixing member includes a main body fixed to the bracket, a number of cushioning boards fixed to the main body, and a number of guiding rails fixed each fixed to a corresponding one of the plurality of cushioning boards. Each guiding rail defines a sliding groove. When the data storage devices are moved along two adjacent fixing members, the head portions are slid in the corresponding sliding grooves. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20110043993 | MOUNTING APPARATUS FOR DATA STORAGE DEVICE - A mounting apparatus is provided to hold a number of data storage devices each including opposite sidewalls. The mounting apparatus includes a bracket, a number of fasteners, and a number of fixing members. The fasteners are fixed to the sidewalls of the data storage devices, respectively, and each fastener includes a head portion abutting the corresponding sidewall. Each fixing member includes a main body fixed to the bracket, and guiding rails fixed to opposite sides of the main body. Each guiding rail defines a sliding groove. A receiving space is formed between two adjacent fixing members to accommodate the data storage devices. Every sliding groove facing a receiving space is paired with an opposite sliding groove facing the same receiving. When the data storage devices are moved into the receiving spaces along the fixing members, respectively, the head portions are slid into the corresponding paired sliding grooves. | 02-24-2011 |
