Abstract: A fan mounting apparatus includes a base having a fan support. An elongated handle extends from the base for positioning the base in a chassis. A securing member is located adjacent a distal end of the elongated handle for securing the base in a chassis. The fan mounting apparatus may be used to couple and secure a fan module in a channel defined by a chassis by using the elongated handle to position the fan module in the chassis and secure the fan module to the chassis.

Abstract: A fan mounting apparatus includes a base having a fan support. An elongated handle extends from a first surface of the base for positioning the base in a chassis. A securing member is located adjacent a distal end of the elongated handle for securing the base in a chassis. The fan mounting apparatus may be used to couple and secure a fan module in a channel defined by a chassis by using the elongated handle to position the fan module in the chassis and secure the fan module to the chassis.

Abstract: A method and system for housing electronic components includes a chassis having a first sub-chassis slidably dockable into a first end of the chassis. The first sub-chassis houses a first set of electronic components and includes a backplane to electrically couple the first set of electronic components to a second set of electronic components located adjacent to the first sub-chassis. The second set of electronic components is housed in a second sub-chassis, which is accessible via a second end of the chassis. The backplane is accessible by slidably undocking the first sub-chassis without removal of any one of the second set of electronic components. Some of the second set of electronic components are accessible by slidably undocking the first sub-chassis and without removal of the backplane.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for capturing data representative of user interactions with a desktop computer, and processing the capture data to identify and analyze business processes performed by the user. The disclosed system comprises listeners that capture key actuations, mouse-clicks, screen information, and other data representative of user interaction with a desktop computer. A desktop observer is provided to accept capture data from listeners, to temporarily store the capture data if necessary, and to pass the capture data to a process intelligence server. The process intelligence server includes a process discovery module the analyzes the capture data and identifies business processes corresponding to the capture data, or models business processes. A process data master storage is provided.

Abstract: An apparatus for securing a modular component comprises a jointed cam arm including a first portion and a second portion pivotally connected to the first portion. A flexible member is included on the first portion. A pivot limiting catch is included on the second portion, the catch being operable to engage with the flexible member to position the first portion at an angle relative to the second portion. In response to a force applied to the first portion sufficient to flex the flexible member, the first portion is pivotable to reduce the relative angle with the second portion.

Abstract: A card retention system comprises a chassis and a bracket provided to secure to the chassis by a first retention member. The first retention member is selectively oriented in one of a first position and a second position. The first position limits lateral movement of the bracket. The second position limits lateral and vertical movement of the bracket. A second retention member may also be provided on the chassis to resiliently engage the bracket to limit vertical movement of the bracket on the chassis.

Abstract: A press-in fastening apparatus and method couples a screw with a nut by pushing the screw through an opening of the nut along a slip axis and rotating the nut to align a lock axis with the inserted screw. The opening of the nut along the slip axis has a diameter greater than the diameter of the screw and the opening of the nut along the lock axis has a diameter that engages screw threads with nut threads. In one embodiment, the nut is disposed in a housing coupled to an information handling system and biased to align with the lock axis so that a module is secured to the information handling system by aligning a screw coupled to the module with the nut and pushing the screw into the nut. The module is removed from the information handling system by unscrewing the screw with engagement of the screw threads and nut threads.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a first module including first alignment members and a second module including second alignment members for engagement with the first alignment members. A PCB is retained on the first module to provide a structural member for the first module, to maintain dimensional accuracy of the first module, and to accurately position the first alignment members for alignment with the second alignment members.
