  • Publication number: 20120106046
    Abstract: A carrier includes main body, a conductive elastic element, and a handle. The main body is adapted to carrying an electronic device and has a cavity. The conductive elastic element is disposed in the cavity. The handle is pivotally coupled to the main body. When the handle locks the main body to be located in a lock position, the handle exerts force on the conductive elastic element such that the conductive elastic element protrudes outside the main body through the cavity. When the handle does not lock the main body and exert force on the conductive elastic element to be located at a release position, the conductive elastic element is located inside the main body where it does not interfere with an outside device. This allows convenient insertion and removal of the carrier relative to a cage. Accordingly, the conductive elastic element is not damaged easily.

  • Patent number: 7733640
    Abstract: A conversion enclosure allows a first group of hard disk drives of a first size to be received by a hard disk drive enclosure having a second group of hard disk drives of a second size. The conversion enclosure includes a chassis having first and second side panels, each of the side panels having a front edge and a rear edge, a plurality of pairs of chassis rails having a first rail of each of the pairs of chassis rails connected to the first side panel, and the second rails connected to the second side panel. Pairs of slots are included therein, each slot bounded on one side by a first plane passing through a first pair of chassis rails, and on the other side, by a second plane passing through the second pair of chassis rails adjacent to the first pair. The conversion enclosure includes a pair of engaging panels, each having a vented area respectively connected to the rear edge of the first side panel and to the rear edge of the second side panel.
