Abstract: A component handling device is disclosed. The component handling device includes a body with a component receiving portion that has a front region defining a first opening and a rear region defining a second opening. Also, the component receiving portion includes a component encasing wall extending from the first opening to the second opening. Additionally, a component elevating feature configured to assist with detaching the component from a substrate is coupled to the interior surface of the component encasing wall. In addition, a user gripping feature is coupled to the body of the component handling device. Moreover, a component bounding feature proximate to the second opening is coupled to the body to prevent the component from moving past the second opening. Furthermore, a component retaining feature is coupled to the interior surface of the component encasing wall for retaining the component when the component is placed within the component handling device.

Abstract: An apparatus in one example has a liquid lubricant having a viscosity and surface tension such that, during engagement of a first segment, which has a threaded portion, and a second segment, which has a plurality of threads which are interlockable with the threaded portion of the first segment, friction between the threads of the first and second segments is reduced and metallic debris becomes substantially embedded in the liquid lubricant.

Abstract: A computing system includes a circuit board, a first connector portion electrically connected to the circuit board, an electronic component and a plurality of resilient support members. The electronic component includes a first electronic device, a second connector portion electrically coupled to the electronic device and connected to the first connector portion along an axis. The plurality of resilient support members are asymmetrically located about the axis and extend between the device and the circuit board.
