Patent number: 11889633Abstract: A hot/cold aisle air containment system includes a frame structure, at least one electronic equipment enclosure installed at least partially within the frame structure, and a header panel assembly. The frame structure adapted to be at least partially covered by one or more panels to define an interior space and includes at least one horizontal member. The header panel assembly is installed between a top of the at least one electronic equipment enclosure and the at least one horizontal member of the frame structure to prevent circulation of air above the enclosure. The header panel assembly includes a pair of panels. A first of the pair of panels is adjustable horizontally relative to a second of the pair of panels, and the pair of panels, together, are adjustable vertically relative to the least one horizontal member.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2021Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Chatsworth Products, Inc.Inventors: William Krietzman, Jose Arturo Garza, Jr., Richard Evans Lewis, II

Publication number: 20240015911Abstract: A panel for an electronic equipment enclosure includes a generally planar sheet composed of a metal-based material and at least one panel knockout arranged interiorly of edges of the generally planar sheet. The at least one panel knockout is connected to the generally planar sheet at one or more attachment points and is shaped to include at least one protruding notch along a side thereof. The generally planar sheet is adapted to fit atop an electronic equipment enclosure that defines an interior. Removal of the at least one panel knockout, by severing a connection between the at least one panel knockout and the generally planar sheet at the one or more attachment points, provides an access opening through the generally planar sheet to the interior of the electronic equipment enclosure. The access opening includes an edge having an indentation corresponding to the at least one protruding notch.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Inventors: Jose Arturo GARZA, JR., Richard Evans LEWIS, II
