MOUNTING ASSEMBLY AND SERVER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18208716 titled 'MOUNTING ASSEMBLY AND SERVER
The invention provides a mounting assembly and a server. The mounting assembly includes a fixed base, adjustable base, first protrusion, and second protrusion. The adjustable base is rotatably disposed on the fixed base. When the adjustable base is at the first mounting position, the first protrusion protrudes from the adjustable base along a protruding direction and is configured for horizontal installation and removal of the first expansion card with respect to the motherboard. When the adjustable base is at the second mounting position, the second protrusion protrudes from the adjustable base along the protruding direction and is configured for vertical installation and removal of the second expansion card with respect to the motherboard. The position at which the first protrusion is located when protruding along the protruding direction is different from the position at which the second protrusion is located when protruding along the protruding direction.
- Adjustable base allows for rotation on fixed base
- First protrusion for horizontal installation and removal of first expansion card
- Second protrusion for vertical installation and removal of second expansion card
- Different positions for first and second protrusions when protruding along the direction
- Provides flexibility in mounting expansion cards
Potential Applications: - Data centers - Server rooms - Computer hardware manufacturing
Problems Solved: - Simplifies the installation and removal of expansion cards - Provides flexibility in mounting options
Benefits: - Efficient use of space - Easy maintenance and upgrades - Versatile mounting options
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Mounting Assembly for Server Expansion Cards This technology can be used in server manufacturing companies to streamline the installation and removal process of expansion cards, leading to increased efficiency and cost savings in server maintenance.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the adjustable base improve the installation process of expansion cards? 2. What are the advantages of having different mounting positions for the first and second protrusions?
Original Abstract Submitted
The invention provides a mounting assembly and a server. The mounting assembly includes fixed base, adjustable base, first protrusion and second protrusion. Adjustable base is rotatably disposed on fixed base. When adjustable base is at first mounting position, first protrusion protrudes from adjustable base along protruding direction and is configured for horizontal installation and removal of first expansion card with respect to motherboard. When adjustable base is at second mounting position, second protrusion protrudes from adjustable base along protruding direction and is configured for vertical installation and removal of second expansion card with respect to motherboard. A position at which first protrusion is located when protruding along protruding direction is different from position at which second protrusion is located when protruding along protruding direction.
