ADJUSTABLE HINGED MOUNTING BRACKET FOR A COMPUTING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240138122 titled 'ADJUSTABLE HINGED MOUNTING BRACKET FOR A COMPUTING DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a modular information technology component (MITC) that includes an information handling system (IHS) and a hinged bracket. The hinged bracket consists of a hinge, a base, and a holder, with the base connected to the IHS and the hinge, and the holder connected to the hinge and an information technology component (ITC). The holder and the ITC can be rotated inward or outward about the hinge to change their orientation.

  • Information handling system (IHS) included in the MITC
  • Hinged bracket with hinge, base, and holder
  • Base connected to IHS and hinge
  • Holder connected to hinge and information technology component (ITC)
  • Holder and ITC can be rotated to change orientation

Potential Applications

The modular information technology component can be used in various industries such as telecommunications, data centers, and computer hardware manufacturing.

Problems Solved

This technology allows for easy installation and removal of information technology components, making maintenance and upgrades more efficient.

Benefits

- Simplifies the process of adding or replacing IT components - Increases flexibility in configuring IT systems - Reduces downtime during maintenance or upgrades

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing IT infrastructure in businesses Enhancing data center efficiency with modular components

Possible Prior Art

Similar hinged brackets have been used in the automotive industry for mounting components in vehicles.

Unanswered Questions

1. How does the rotation mechanism work in detail? 2. Are there any specific weight or size limitations for the ITC that can be connected to the hinged bracket?


Original Abstract Submitted

a modular information technology component (mitc) includes: an information handling system (ihs); and a hinged bracket, in which the hinged bracket comprises a hinge, a base, and a holder, in which a first portion of the base is connected to the ihs, in which a second portion of the base is connected to the hinge, in which a first portion of the holder is connected to the hinge, in which a second portion of the holder is connected to an information technology component (itc), in which the holder and the itc are oriented in a first direction, and in which, after rotating inward or outward about the hinge, the holder and the itc are oriented in a second direction, in which the first direction and the second direction are different.
