  • Patent number: 8107238
    Abstract: An electronic equipment enclosure includes a frame structure at least partially enclosed by a plurality of panels defining a compartment in which one or more electronic components are mounted and an exhaust air duct that is adapted to segregate hot air being exhausted from the compartment from cool air entering the compartment, thereby improving thermal management of the enclosure. The exhaust duct includes a lower duct section extending upward from the top panel of the compartment and an upper duct section telescoping upward from an upper end of the lower duct section. Each duct section includes four panels connected together by hinged corner fittings such that the section is collapsible. The upper duct section includes an outwardly flared portion.

At least one side of the trough is formed from a plurality of finger-like projections extending forwardly from a support member. At least two of the projections include a hinge boss disposed at an outer end thereof and extending inwardly. At least one edge of the door has a hinge structure disposed therealong that includes an outer arm and an inner arm defining a hinge channel therebetween. The hinge bosses are disposed within the hinge channel such that the door is rotatably attached along at least one of its longitudinal edges to the trough. The door is rotatable to an open state without extending beyond the footprint of the trough.

  • Patent number: 5195230
    Abstract: A hand-held impact tool for effecting terminations in a telecommunications terminal block uses a blade with a setting edge and a pivotable cutter for cutting a conductor wire. Several impact settings for varying the seating impact force at the blade are settable by moving a pouch relative to the handle in one direction. Movement of the pouch in another direction will allow release of a blade stored inside the pouch or insertion of a blade into an empty pouch. A switch on the handle allows the cutter to be actuated by compression and release of the tool or to be disengaged so that only an impact seating function occurs.
