Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide methods of controlling a motor, such as a servo motor. One method can include monitoring a current temperature of the motor and a power stage of the motor substantially continuously and substantially in real-time. This method can include determining optimum settings for a first time interval to remove power and the second time interval to provide power in order to deliver maximum output while remaining below the maximum rated temperature of the motor. One method can include pulsing power to the motor for a second time interval after a first time interval has elapsed and tailoring pulse shapes of the power provided to the motor for the second time interval. One method can include calculating a maximum phase current based on the rotor shaft torque for each real-time speed of the motor that correlates to the maximum allowable current draw from the power supply.

Abstract: A multi-door enclosure includes an enclosure body, a primary door having an actuator and a secondary door. An interlock member having a holding section extends between the primary door and the secondary door. As the primary door closes, the actuator contacts the interlock member to translate the interlock member towards the secondary door until the holding section engages the secondary door.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a hinge system and method for use with an electrical enclosure. The hinge system can include a first mounting plate having a bushing and a second mounting plate having an aperture.

The hinge system can include a cam lever, which can extend from the first mounting plate at an angle. The cam lever can be moveable between a first position to retract the pin from the aperture and a second position to lock the pin in the aperture. The cam lever can be operable in a substantially single plane of motion.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a vertical cable manager for routing cables or wires. The vertical cable manager includes a vertical trough with sets of fingers. The fingers include arrow-shaped ends, which allow installation and/or removal of cables and wires, while retaining the cables and wires in cable rings. In some embodiments, a door attached to the vertical cable manager can be removable from one or both sides of the trough. In some embodiments, the vertical cable manager can include removable spools that can be attached to the trough in various positions and configurations.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a horizontal cable manager. A horizontal base can include a first molded section and an identical second molded section adapted to be coupled together. The horizontal cable manager can include a plurality of fingers extending from each one of the first molded section and the second molded section. The fingers can include a shaft and an arrow-shaped end. The arrow-shaped end can include a first triangular member and a second triangular member each coupled to opposite sides of the shaft at a first distance away from a distal end of the shaft. The horizontal cable manager can include hinge supports with a cover removably coupled to the hinge supports. The horizontal base can include an attachment hole, a first extension, and a second wing extension for temporary attachment to an electronic equipment rack.

Abstract: A blanking panel includes a main body extending from a first end to a second end and adapted to cover a rack having at least two posts, a fastener portion at the end of each of the first and the second ends, and an alignment member at the end of each of the first end and the second end, the alignment feature including a first pin and a second, removable pin such that the main body can be alternatively attached to a square hole with the removable pin intact, or attached to a round hole with the removable pin removed and the first pin extending through the hole.

Abstract: An enclosure includes a back enclosure unit, a front enclosure unit hinged to the back enclosure unit, a rod coupled to the front enclosure unit, and a spring latch coupled to the back enclosure unit, wherein the rod engages the spring latch when the front enclosure unit is closed upon the back enclosure unit.

Abstract: An enclosure assembly includes a first enclosure unit including a first door, a second enclosure unit, and a handle coupled to the second enclosure unit, the handle being operative so as to turn on or turn off power to the first enclosure unit, and wherein the first enclosure unit and the second enclosure unit are configured such that the first door cannot be opened if the handle has not been turned to a power-off position.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an enclosure mountable to a wall, a strap coupled to an outer surface of the enclosure, and a holder mounted to the wall. The holder tautly pulls the strap toward the wall to hold the enclosure against the wall.

Abstract: A hole seal for an enclosure includes a body having a threaded portion, and a nut having an inner threaded portion to receive the threaded portion of the body, the nut including a first outer flange having first diameter and a second outer flange having a second diameter, larger than the first diameter.

Abstract: A shelf includes a first shelf section and a second shelf section that slidingly fits with the first shelf section such that the first shelf section and second shelf section are configured to form a shelf surface having a usable shelf surface area that is variable.

Abstract: A blanking panel includes a main body extending from a first end to a second end and adapted to cover a rack having at least two posts, a fastener portion at the end of each of the first and the second ends, and an alignment member at the end of each of the first end and the second end, the alignment feature including a first pin and a second, removable pin such that the main body can be alternatively attached to a square hole with the removable pin intact, or attached to a round hole with the removable pin removed and the first pin extending through the hole.

Abstract: A hinge pin for use with a hinge section having a bore. The hinge pin includes a hinge pin body dimensioned to fit within a bore of a hinge section and a clip having a first end attached to the hinge pin body, the clip extending along the hinge pin body and configured to be located outside the hinge section when the hinge pin body is within the bore.

Abstract: A hole seal for an enclosure includes a body having a threaded portion, and a nut having an inner threaded portion to receive the threaded portion of the body, the nut including a first outer flange having first diameter and a second outer flange having a second diameter, larger than the first diameter.

Abstract: An apparatus to interlock a multi-door enclosure includes an actuating member slidably mountable to the enclosure between a primary door and a secondary door. The actuating member includes a first end extendable through an opening in a door post between the primary door and the secondary door. The apparatus includes a latching member slidably mounted to the actuating member and extending over a second end of the actuating member to engage a portion of the secondary door.
