Abstract: A cam activated circuit card clamp is provided. The circuit card clamp is comprised of a base member (204), a leverage arm (412), and a cam activation shaft (422). The circuit card clamp is also comprised of one or more cams (410-1, 410-2, 410-3, 410-4), one or more ramp members (308-1, 308-2, 308-3, 308-4), and one or more wedge members (418-1, 418-2, 418-3, 418-4). The cam activation shaft is coupled to the leverage arm. The cams are in contact with the cam activation shaft which has one or more compression springs disposed thereon. The cams are adapted to pivot about a pivot shaft when actuated. The cams also have a surface adapted to engage an adjacent wedge member when actuated. Each ramp member has an inclined surface adapted to deflect an adjacent wedge member when the adjacent wedge member is compressed against the ramp member. Each wedge member has a surface adapted to engage an adjacent cam.

Abstract: A vibration tolerant electronic assembly may include a base and a first isolation stage including a first frame, at least one first linear bearing coupling the first frame to the base to constrain movement of the first frame along a first coordinate axis, and at least one first damper for damping movement of the first frame. A second similar isolation stage may be coupled to the first isolation stage, and a third similar isolation stage may be coupled to the second isolation stage. Furthermore, an electronic device may be coupled to the third isolation stage. The electronic assembly provides resistance to disturbance of the electronic device by vibration in one or more of three coordinate axis.
