Patent number: 9877407Abstract: The disclosed apparatus may include at least one physical extension handle that connects to at least one ejector that facilitates securing a line card to a chassis of a telecommunications system and ejecting the line card from the chassis of the telecommunications system. The physical extension handle may, when connected to the ejector, extend the ejector such that a user is able to access the ejector by way of the physical extension handle to secure the line card to or eject the line card from the chassis of the telecommunications system using the physical extension handle. Additionally or alternatively, the physical extension handle may facilitate physically supporting one or more communication cables connected to the line card in a horizontal orientation such that the communication cables avoid hanging down vertically directly from the chassis. Various other apparatuses and systems are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2015Date of Patent: January 23, 2018Assignee: Juniper Networks, Inc.Inventors: Henry K. Sim, Ken R. Weber, Mahesh Nagarajan, Brian J. Ray, Adolpho Gonzalez, Alex Brown, Tark Abed

Patent number: 9769940Abstract: A housing includes a mount projection defining a first notch, a second notch, and a recessed wall. At least a portion of the recessed wall defines a substantially conical cross-sectional shape between a maximum width and a length from a leading portion to a line associated with the maximum width. The mount projection is configured to complimentarily mate to a bracket defining a recessed wall with a maximum width, corresponding to the maximum width of the mount projection, and a length, corresponding to the length of the mount projection, from a leading portion to a line associated with the maximum width. The mount projection is releasably retained within an opening of the bracket when a first projection and a second projection of the bracket are disposed within the first notch and the second notch, respectively, of the mount projection.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2016Date of Patent: September 19, 2017Assignee: Juniper Networks, Inc.Inventors: Adolpho Gonzalez, Brian Ray, Jeffrey L.

Patent number: 5564804Abstract: A bracket for securing a computer drive within a housing. The housing has a housing base, and two housing walls each disposed perpendicularly to the housing base and to each other. The bracket comprises a base for supporting the computer drive. The base has a first base aperture for slidably securing the bracket within the housing and for preventing movement of the bracket in a first degree of freedom. The bracket also comprises a first support means, which is perpendicularly coupled to the base, for engaging the first housing wall and for preventing movement of the bracket in a second degree of freedom. Perpendicularly coupled to the base is a first means for engaging the second housing wall and for preventing movement of the bracket in a third degree of freedom. The bracket further comprises a second support means which is perpendicularly coupled to said base. The second support means has an interior surface facing an interior surface of the first support means.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 1993Date of Patent: October 15, 1996Assignee: Silicon Graphics, Inc.Inventors: Adolpho Gonzalez, Brian J.
