Abstract: A latch mechanism is provided for retaining a slide rail assembly, which includes first and second slide rails. The latch mechanism includes a latch module movably carried by the second slide rail, a stop member arranged on the first slide rail, a first release member and a second release member slidably attached to the second slide rail. The latch module includes a first stop surface and a second stop surface at opposite sides thereof. Two protrusions extend from the stop member at diagonally opposite corners thereof configured to respectively engage with the first and second stop surfaces of the latch module for retaining the second slide rail relative to the first slide rail. The first and second release members capable of selectively driving the latch module to slide the latch module to release the first or second stop surface from the corresponding protrusions of the stop member.

Abstract: A detaching apparatus is provided for detaching a connector having an elastic release tab from a mating connector socket of an electronic device. The release tab of the connector is engagable with the connector socket. The detaching apparatus includes a pivot member pivotably attached to the electronic device, and an operating member connectable with the pivot member. The operating member is manipulably rotatable together with the pivot member for pressing the release tab to disengage the connector from the connector socket of the electronic device.

Abstract: A latch mechanism is provided for retaining a slide rail assembly, which includes first and second slide rails. The latch mechanism includes a latch member movably attached to the second slide rail, a stop member mounted to the first slide rail to engage in the latch member for retaining the second slide rail relative to the first slide rail, and a release member slidably attached to the second slide rail. The latch member includes first and second driven portion at one side thereof, and a cutout. The cutout has a first and second stop surfaces at opposite ends thereof. The release member is capable of pushing the first or second driven portion to release the first or second stop surface from the stop member. A resilient member is placed between the latch member and the second slide rail for returning the latch member to an original position.

Abstract: A multi-section slide assembly includes an outer slide, an intermediate slide, an inner slide, a positioning member, and an actuating member. The outer slide forms a locking tab. The intermediate slide is received in the outer slide. The intermediate slide defines two receiving slots and at least one slit. The positioning member is mounted to the intermediate slide, and includes at least one positioning tab extending downward therefrom. The positioning tab extends through the slit and abuts against the locking tab. The actuating member is mounted between the intermediate member and the positioning member. The actuating member forms two arms. Two arrises protrude downward from the arms of the actuating member and extend through the corresponding receiving slots of the intermediate slide. The inner slide is received in the intermediate slide.

Abstract: A mounting apparatus for a storage device, includes a first bracket for accommodating the storage device therein, a chassis for slidably securing the first bracket therein, a locking member including a pivotable portion, a blocking portion pivotable about an axis of the pivotable portion for urging the first bracket, and a connecting portion interconnecting the pivotable portion and the blocking portion, and a bearing connected to the chassis for pivotably supporting the pivotable portion of the locking member.

Abstract: A mounting apparatus for mounting a circuit board that is electrically connectable with at least one hard disk drive, includes a chassis for receiving the circuit board, a bracket for receiving the at least one hard disk drive, and a securing member for pressing the circuit board. The bracket is mounted to the chassis. A rear end of the bracket faces the circuit board. The securing member is pivotably mounted to the bracket.

Abstract: An exemplary mounting apparatus for a storage device includes a chassis, a locking member, and a fastener. The storage device defines a pair of fixing holes in one sidewall thereof. The locking member is attached to the other sidewall thereof and includes a pair of slots defined therein. The chassis includes a side panel, and a bottom panel. The side panel includes a pair of pins extending therefrom and engaging in the fixing holes of the storage device. The bottom panel includes a pair of bridges extending therefrom and slidably engaging in the slots of the locking member. The fastener is attached to the locking member to secure the locking member to the bottom panel of the chassis.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a cage, a hood, a fastener, and a resilient member. The hood is detachably secured to the cage. The hood includes a first post and a second post extending downwardly from a side thereof respectively. The fastener is movably mounted to the cage. The fastener includes a first guiding surface for the first post sliding thereon during assembling the hood to the cage, and a second guiding surface for the second post sliding thereon during removing the hood from the cage. The resilient member is connected between the fastener and the cage.
