Abstract: A computer server rack has a platform, configured to support at least one server, with a front end and an opposed back end. The server rack also has a height adjuster coupled to the platform, and a control positioned a first distance from the front end and a second distance from the back end. The first distance is smaller than the second distance, and the control is configured to control the height adjuster to change a height of the back end of the platform.

Abstract: A cooling system for a high performance computing system includes a closed-loop cooling cell having two compute racks and a cooling tower between the compute racks. Each compute rack includes at least one blade enclosure, and the cooling tower includes at least one water-cooled heat exchanger and one or more blowers configured to draw warm air from a side of the compute racks towards a back, across the water-cooled heat exchanger, and to circulate cooled air to a side of the compute racks towards a front. The cooling cell further includes a housing enclosing the compute racks and the cooling tower to provide a closed-loop air flow within the cooling cell. The cooling system further includes cooling plate(s) configured to be disposed between two computing boards within the computing blade, and a fluid connection coupled to the cooling plate and in fluid communication with the blade enclosure.

Abstract: A ground bracket and method for grounding an electronic device to a structure such as a rail, rack or cabinet. According to one aspect of the invention the ground bracket has a first conductive surface for use in coupling the bracket to the structure and an arcuate portion conductively coupled to the first conductive surface for contacting an electronic device. In another embodiment, a bracket includes a first surface for coupling to a rack, and a portion positioned proximal a computer component that includes a rotatable fastening mechanism for coupling to the computer component.

Abstract: An improved support bracket for supporting electronic devices provides improved adjustability and alignment. The support bracket includes a front surface and a rear surface each including a portion having at least one threaded hole and a support portion between the front surface and rear surface for supporting an electronic device. The support bracket includes a side portion having a mechanism for coupling the side portion to a structure, a guide portion and a support portion for supporting an electronic device.

Abstract: A rack including a rail for supporting a computer module and a grounding element electrically coupled to the rack and positioned to electrically contact a computer module inserted in the rack such that the grounding element provides a path to ground. The grounding element can be an arcuate bracket attached to the rail to make contact with a side of the computer module. The grounding element can be a conductor extending from the rack and positioned to make contact with a side of the computer module. The rack can include a wider section which provides a cabling channel and a member on the rack for mechanically coupling the rack to an adjacent rack. The rack can include at least one passage for allowing a cable to pass through the rack to an adjacent rack and a cable organizer for maintaining placement of at least one cable routed through the passage.

Abstract: A cable organizer having amounting mechanism suitable for mounting the cable organizer on a structure, at least one compartment for retaining at least one cable and a snap mechanism for use in installing the cable within the compartment.

Abstract: A circuit board module for a supercomputer includes quick connections for power, ground, coolant quick connects, and circuit quick connects. The quick connections provide for insertion of modules with substantial savings in time and effort. The electrical power and ground connections and the liquid coolant connections engage and disengage automatically upon insertion and removal of the modules. The circuit quick connects require only insertion of a camming tool for connection and disconnection. The modules require no bolting or unbolting of clamps or hoses for the various connections.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for testing integrated circuit devices includes a cooling chuck which is extensible within a bore in a cooling chuck body to a position in thermal contact with the integrated circuit device. The temperature of the cooling chuck is regulated by a fluid cooling system, which can be set to operate at a selected capacity to maintain the integrated circuit device at a desired temperature during testing.
