  • Publication number: 20080029472
    Abstract: A low overhead hinge assembly comprising a stationary hinge plate and a rotating hinge plate. The stationary hinge plate having a stationary hinge plate body portion and a plurality of stationary hinge plate digits coupled to the stationary hinge plate body portion, each of the stationary hinge plate digits having an opening therein. The rotating hinge plate having a rotating hinge plate body portion and a plurality of pins coupled to the rotating hinge plate body portion, wherein the stationary hinge plate digits are configured to be engaged with the rotating hinge plate pins so that each of a plurality of the rotating hinge plate pins is inserted into an opening in one of the stationary hinge plate digits so as to pivotally couple the rotating hinge plate to the stationary hinge plate.

  • Publication number: 20060289193
    Abstract: An electronic module rack system includes a rack housing and opposing first and second rail members attached to the housing. A stabilizer bar is attached to the first and second rail members. The rail members support a cable trough assembly, and at least one cable separator retainer extends from the cable trough assembly. A method for managing cables for an electronic module includes connecting a first cable to the electronic module and connecting a second cable to the electronic module. The first cable is placed in a cable trough assembly and the second cable is placed in a cable separator retainer extending from the cable trough assembly. A cable support system includes a cable trough assembly and means for supporting cables outside the cable trough assembly.

  • Publication number: 20050225217
    Abstract: An end user work space mounting system for use with a computer cabinet. The end user work space may include a computer terminal or shelf, drawer or platform. The height of the workspace is adjustable in the vertical direction. In the case of a computer terminal, the viewing angle of the monitor, i.e., with respect to rack and the keyboard, is also adjustable. The keyboard, monitor, and bracket fold into the same plane, so that the keyboard, monitor, and bracket can fold into the rack when not in use.
