Abstract: Methods and systems for insertion of a memory module into a computer system are provided. The method includes removing an access door of the computer system to make a connector accessible, the access door having a size substantially smaller than a footprint of the memory module, and linearly inserting the memory module into the connector.

Abstract: The invention includes a cable assembly housing. The cable assembly housing may include a main shell that defines a first cavity. The main shell may have a collar. The cable assembly may also include a cable shell that defines a second cavity. The cable shell may have a neck disposed between a mating surface and a flange. The flange of the cable shell may be disposed through the collar and inside the first cavity.

Abstract: Cable assembly housing. The invention includes a cable assembly housing. The cable assembly housing may include a main shell that defines a first cavity. The main shell may have a collar. The cable assembly may also include a cable shell that defines a second cavity. The cable shell may have three necks, two of which are disposed inside the first cavity, and the third neck is extended outside the collar. The cable shell may rotate about an axis of the main shell such that the cable shell is set at a predetermined angle and position with respect to the main shell.

The cable assembly may also include a cable shell that defines a second cavity. The cable shell may have a neck disposed between a mating surface and a flange. The flange of the cable shell may be disposed through the collar and inside the first cavity. The cable shell may be located in different positions relative to the main shell and locked against relative motion by detents and slots.

Abstract: A door assembly that includes a door that is operable to alternatively expose and cover an opening in the bezel of a computer. The door assembly includes a carriage that slides up and down that pivotally couples to the door. Upon pressing against the lower portion of the door, the door pivots and the carriage and the door automatically slide down such that the door no longer covers the opening in the bezel. When an upward force is applied to the door, the door and the carriage move upward and into the closed position. As the door reaches the opening in the bezel, a spring forces the door against the bezel and into the closed position. The door is easily opened and closed and the door is out of the way when the door is in the open position.

Abstract: A flashlight includes a focusing beam assembly which is diposed between an elongate casing holding the batteries and a lens cowl enclosing an open end of the casing. The focusing beam assembly includes a parabolic reflector slidably mounted within a base. A spring urges the reflector forward relative to the base so that a light bulb mounted in the base is normally at a first position relative to the reflector. By tightening the lens cowl on the casing, the reflector can be compressed against the spring relative to the base so that the position of the light bulb relative to the reflector is changed. In this way, the beam width emanating from the flashlight can be adjusted.
