  • Publication number: 20220051649
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to a method and system of cooling a computing system, while simultaneously absorbing airborne noise in the computing system. The computing system includes a chassis having a base and a pair of walls coupled to a peripheral side of the base, and a plurality of rotational drives disposed in the chassis. The computing system includes a frame having a plurality of first openings, and a first acoustic absorber having a plurality of second openings, coupled to the frame to form an acoustic absorber frame. The acoustic absorber frame extends along a lateral direction, disposed downstream relative to the plurality of rotational drives, and coupled to the pair of walls. Each second opening is concentrically aligned to a respective first opening. The computing system includes a plurality of fans coupled to frame and disposed downstream relative to the frame, and aligned to the respective first opening.

  • Patent number: 10034408
    Abstract: Examples herein relate to locking devices. In one example, a locking device comprises a metal sheet, the metal sheet comprising an elongated flexible arm established on a same plane as the metal sheet. The arm comprises an attached proximate end, a detached distal end, an elongated slot, the slot defining two opposite elongated edges and a locking bridge comprising an inclined surface. The locking bridge connects the two opposite edges by the detached distal end and the inclined surface of the locking bridge is adapted to retain a protrusion of the memory module.
