  • Slide rail attachment
    Patent number: 6588866
    Abstract: A component chassis of a server is installed into a rack with a quick-disconnect slide rail. The inner rail member is secured to the component chassis by a quick-connect system having multiple headed protrusions received in corresponding keyhole slots in the rail web, and then slid along the slots until a spring latch snaps into place, without the use of tools. The component chassis, with its attached inner rail members, is then slid into place by inserting the inner rail members in mating outer rail members pre-installed on the rack.
