  • Expansion card retention
    Patent number: 11068033
    Abstract: Some examples include an expansion card retention device, comprising a retaining arm and a retaining bracket. The retaining arm is rotatably attachable to a chassis and moveable between an open state and a closed state. The retaining arm is postionable along the expansion card and includes an interior face to provide multi-point support along a top edge of the expansion card. The retaining bracket is rotatably coupled to the retaining arm. The retaining bracket pivotable about a first axis at a first end of the retaining arm. The retaining bracket includes a contact surface to engage with an interconnect bracket in the closed state. The retaining arm and retaining bracket are movable together between the open state and the closed state with a single user controlled operation.
