Abstract: A modular computer system includes: a housing; at least one container; a data connection; and a housing cover. The at least one container in a lowered state is configured to be connected to a motherboard of the computer system via at least one data connection installed on the outside of the at least one container. The data connection is for exchanging data between pluggable circuit boards in the at least one container and the motherboard of the computer system while the at least one container is in the lowered state. The housing cover is configured to be fixed on the housing. A container holding device is installed on the housing cover, wherein the container holding device is configured to exert a force on the at least one container to fix the at least one container in a shakeproof manner in the housing after the housing cover has been fixed on the housing.

Abstract: The application relates to a computer system including a housing, a first circuit board with at least one plug connector and a retrofittable second circuit board with at least one mating plug connector. During the retrofitting of the second circuit board a plug connection is produced. The plug connection includes at least one plug connector and the at least one mating plug connector. The computer system is characterized in that a fixing device is mounted in a region of the plug connection on the first circuit board and/or the second circuit board, which is configured to apply a force for connecting the plug connection.

Abstract: The invention relates to an assembly for marking at least one connection of a computer system. The assembly comprises a housing with an outer wall, in which a recess is formed. Furthermore, at least one connection is provided, which is accessible from outside the housing via the recess of the housing. The assembly is characterized in that a labelling element can be secured within the housing such that at least one section of the labelling element which can be provided with a marking and which is assigned to the at least one connection projects outwards from the housing through the recess. Furthermore, the invention relates to a connection module and to a labelling element.

Abstract: A data processing system with at least one mainboard is arranged in a computer housing and at least one daughter card that can be electrically connected to the mainboard by at least one riser card. A metal carrier sheet accommodates and supports the riser card and the daughter card and can be arranged together with the riser card and the daughter card in the computer housing. A metal carrier sheet includes a retaining bracket constructed to fix the riser card on the metal carrier sheet without screws. The metal carrier sheet further includes at least one angle bracket and at least one retaining bolt constructed to fix the daughter card without screws on the metal carrier sheet.

Abstract: A mounting element for an expansion card in a computer system includes a bracket-like construction and at least two retaining arms that at least partially encompass an expansion card held in the mounting element, wherein the mounting element can be locked on a retaining element of a module carrier, and the mounting element has a first mount designed to fix an expansion card held in the mounting element substantially perpendicular to the retaining arms such that the mounting element is connected captively to the expansion card.

Abstract: A housing with a sliding switch with at least three positions and a sliding element that partially projects through an opening in the housing as provided. In order to protect the sliding element against accidental activation, on both sides of the opening, parallel to the direction of movement of the sliding switch, there are flanks.

Abstract: A supporting device for a machine (2) standing on standing feet (4) at a distance from a floor surface of a floor. The supporting device has at least one supporting element (12), which has a holding part (44), which reaches, in an operating position, beneath the machine (2) and is detachably connected to a standing foot (4), and a supporting bracket (46) disposed thereon. The holding section (44) is configured as an essentially U-shaped bow having two arms (22, 24) which bear, in the fitted position, laterally against a standing foot (4). On the holding section (44) there are provided, perpendicular to the floor surface, stop faces (42), interacting with counter-faces of the standing foot (4), for fixing the holding section (44) to the standing foot (4). The arms (22, 24) are respectively provided, at their ends, with devices (25, 28) for coupling the said arms to the arms (24', 22') of a second supporting element (14).
