Abstract: A server door assembly including at least one side mounting panel, a pivoting door disposed coupled to the at least one side mounting panel, wherein the pivoting door includes a first door component coupled to a pivot point of the side mounting panel, and a second door component configured to slide along the first component as the first component pivots about the pivot point.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a body with an opening through the body, the opening corresponding to dimensions of a cable to be connected to a circuit board and a flat surface to abut the circuit board. The apparatus further includes one or more attachment mechanisms to attach the body to the circuit board.

Abstract: A machine learning-enabled system for generating and analyzing visa and immigration petitions that includes a neural network-enabled petition analysis module trained on the past beneficiary data and past petition data of past petitions (that have been granted and denied) for determining the likelihood of a visa or immigration petitions being granted. Using the model, the system outputs an indication of the likelihood of a generated petition being granted and provides insight into changes that can be made to increase the likelihood of the generated petition being granted. In some embodiments, the system also includes a drag-and-drop visa workflow designer that enables a user to specify, for type of visa and immigration petition, tasks that need to be performed by each of the petitioner and the beneficiary and information and documents that need to be supplied by each of the petitioner and the beneficiary.

Abstract: In an embodiment, an apparatus (e.g., for damping a motion of a drawer in a storage system) comprises a plate to pivotally attach to a first wall of a drawer, the plate comprising a pivot point about which the plate can pivot; a damped gear coupled to the plate, the damped gear having a plurality of gear teeth; and a spring to facilitate pivoting the plate about the pivot point to engage at least one of the plurality of gear teeth with at least one tooth on a rack. In some embodiments, the spring is to pivot the plate from a first configuration to an angular position relative the wall in a second configuration, wherein the at least one of the plurality of gear teeth and the at least one tooth on the rack are fully engaged with one another in both the first configuration and the second configuration.

Abstract: Example embodiments relate to an apparatus comprising a first flange part; a second flange part comprising a hole and one of a male portion or a female portion; and a spindle comprising a first axial end, an axial body, a second axial end and an other of the male portion or the female portion arranged on the second axial end of the spindle. The first axial end of the spindle is rigidly connected to the first flange part, while the second axial end of the spindle extends through the hole so that the male portion extends into the female portion to secure the spindle part to the second flange part and so that the axial body extends between the first flange part and the second flange part. The male portion or the female portion is elastically deformable to allow the male portion to be removed from the female portion and the spindle to be removed from the second flange part.

Abstract: A storage blade apparatus includes a blade housing, a first drive drawer, a second drive drawer, and at least first and second redundant controllers. The first drive drawer is included in the blade housing and includes a first set of drive bays. The second drive drawer is included in the blade housing and includes a second set of drive bays. The first and second redundant controllers are contained within the blade housing and each of the first and second redundant controllers is operably connected to each of the first set of drive bays and each of the second set of drive bays. The blade housing is configured to fit within a blade slot of a chassis.
