  • Publication number: 20210352829
    Abstract: A cover for covering an opening of a socket formed by a housing comprises a body; one or more bosses extending from the body, a first locking mechanism, a second locking mechanism, and a release tab. The bosses movably couple the body to the housing such that the body is movable between first and second positions. The first locking mechanism releasably attaches to the housing to secure the body in the first position. The second locking mechanism releasably attaches to the housing to secure the body in the second position. The release tab aids in detaching the first locking mechanism from the first wall and the second locking mechanism from the second wall. When the body is in the first position, the body allows access to the socket through the opening. When the body is in the second position, the body prevents access to the socket through the opening.

  • Publication number: 20210352818
    Abstract: A release mechanism is disclosed that can facilitate safely and efficiently removing an expansion card from a computing device. The release mechanism can be installed on a motherboard around an expansion slot, and can include an opening that permits access to the expansion slot to allow an expansion card to be installed therein. When removal of the expansion card is desired, a handled of the release mechanism can be pulled, causing contact surfaces of the release mechanism to push the expansion card away from the expansion slot with even force, removing the need to tilt the expansion card.

  • Patent number: 10859906
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a method to form alignment marks on or in the top layer of an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) mask blank without the use of photolithographic methods. For example, the method can include forming a metal structure on the top layer of the EUV mask blank by dispensing a hexacarbonylchromium vapor on the top layer of the EUV mask and exposing the hexacarbonylchromium vapor to an electron-beam. The hexacarbonylchromium vapor is decomposed to form the metal structure at an area which is proximate to where the hexacarbonylchromium vapors interact with the electron-beam. In another example, the method can include forming a patterned structure in the top layer of an EUV mask blank with the use of an etcher aperture and an etching process.

  • Patent number: 10702979
    Abstract: A torque adjustment device of a torque wrench includes a handle having a passage defined axially therethrough, and a driving head is connected to one end of the handle. A torque adjustment unit is located in the passage of the handle and includes a stationary member, a threaded shaft threadedly extending through the stationary member, a rotary member and a spring. The shaft includes a threaded rod that extends beyond the rotary member. A sleeve is mounted to the threaded shaft. A rotary unit includes a tube which has a mounting section and a threaded section on two ends thereof. By rotating the tube, the rotary member and the threaded shaft are rotated relative to the stationary member so as to compress the spring to set the output torque value.
