Abstract: An open compute project mounting system. The open compute project mourning system includes an OCP mounting bay, the OCP mounting bay defining a plurality of guide slots; a first OCP card module, the first OCP card module being positioned within the OCP mounting bay via a first pair of the plurality of guide slots; and, a second OCP card module, the second OCP card module being positioned within the OCP mounting bay via a second pair of the plurality of guide slots.

Abstract: A floating open compute project retention system. The floating open compute project retention system includes a floating open compute project component guide device and a floating open compute project component retention device, the floating open compute project component retention device providing access to the floating open compute project component guide device when in an open position and fixedly mounting a floating open compute project receiving assembly within an open compute project mounting bay when in a closed position.

Abstract: The invention discloses a lock device. The lock device is used for detachably mounting a cover on a base. A recess is formed on the cover. A first hole is formed on the bottom of the recess, and a first retainer is extended out of the bottom of the recess. The lock device includes a first sliding member, a first elastomer, and a second sliding member. A column which is capable of passing through the first hole is formed on the first sliding member. A second retainer which is used for the first retainer to lock is formed on the second sliding member. When the first sliding member slides toward the base along a first axle, the column pushes the second retainer to make the second sliding member slide toward a second axle, so as to make the second retainer separate from the first retainer.

Abstract: A hard disk drive holding apparatus comprising a support, positioning pins, securing pins and swivel arms. The support comprises a supporting surface and side panels. The side panels have holes located thereon and are erected on the supporting surface. The positioning pins are located on the supporting surface to be inserted into the positioning holes on the bottom of the hard disk drive. The securing pins pass through the holes on the side panels and engage into the securing holes on the sides of the hard disk drive. The swivel arms are attached to the securing pins and pivotally connected on the support.

Abstract: A heat sink protecting retention module is described. The heat sink protecting retention module has a main frame, protective feet, hooks, and a positioning mechanism. The protective feet are disposed under the main frame to keep screws therein before the heat sink protecting retention module is installed on the motherboard so as to avoid scratching the motherboard or damaging electric components thereon. The hooks are disposed on the main frame for clamping the heat sink and the positioning mechanism are disposed around and under the main frame for aligning the heat sink protecting retention module to a central processing unit socket.
