SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MECHANICAL SUPPORT IN CONFIGURABLE SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17721141 Titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MECHANICAL SUPPORT IN CONFIGURABLE SYSTEMS'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes methods and systems for managing power distribution and mechanical load in data processing systems. It introduces the concept of using multifunction power buses to relieve the motherboard from distributing power, and an adapter plate to relieve the motherboard from providing attachment for devices based on their mounting hardware. This allows for standardized and customized motherboards that can be used with different devices.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods and systems for managing power distribution and/or mechanical load in data processing systems is provided. The power distribution may be managed using multifunction power buses that may relieve a motherboard of a data processing system from distributing power. The mechanical load may be managed using an adapter plate that may relieve the motherboard of the data processing system from providing for attachment of devices based on the location of the mechanical mounting hardware on the devices. By doing so, motherboards may be standardized and customized for use with various devices.
