Abstract: a system can comprise a shell, one or more battery cells disposed within the shell, and a pressure-directing layer disposed between the battery cell(s) and the shell's interior surface. each of the battery cell(s) can comprise an enclosure including a gas-impermeable portion and a venting portion configured to permit gas to exit the enclosure. the pressure-directing layer can comprise one or more openings that each overlie the venting portion of the enclosure of at least one of the battery cell(s). in some systems, the pressure-directing layer can have a thickness that is less than a distance between the battery cell(s) and the interior surface of the shell such that there is a space between the battery cell(s) and the interior surface of the shell. in some systems, the pressure-directing layer can be coupled to the battery cell(s) and the interior surface of the shell and comprise a resilient material.

Abstract: an information handling system headset has an earcup that rotationally couples a microphone boom at one end of a cavity to rotate between an extended position with a member of the microphone boom in straight form and a retracted position with the member bent to fit in the cavity and substantially conform with the earcup periphery. the microphone boom member rotates between first and second stops disposed proximate the hinge and bend when pushed against the first stop to fit in the cavity. the microphone boom can fully insert into the cavity to have a flush outer periphery at the earcup or can partially extend out of the cavity at the terminating end where the microphone couples to the member.

CPC Code(s): H05K1/0204



Abstract: in one or more embodiments, a method for applying a thermal interface material (tim) to a heat sink involves treating a plurality of sections of a base layer around at least a portion of a perimeter of the heat sink to form a continuous roughness edge and positioning the tim relative to the heat sink such that the tim extends for contact with the roughness edge. the roughness edge is based on reducing the adhesion force between the tim and the base layer, wherein the tim is easier to remove from the roughness edge, resulting in easier and cleaner removal of the tim from the heat sink.


20240284628. TRAY WITH TRANSLATION FEATURES SUPPORTING ON-RACK SERVICE_simplified_abstract_(dell products l.p.)

Inventor(s): Tung-Yu CHIEN of New Taipei City (TW) for dell products l.p.

IPC Code(s): H05K7/14

CPC Code(s): H05K7/1489



Abstract: a chassis for housing a modular information handling system may include a wall, a plurality of rollers, and a translating bracket mechanically coupled to the rollers and configured to engage with the plurality of rollers to enable linear translation of the translating bracket relative to the wall, the translating bracket comprising, extending from the translating bracket in a direction generally perpendicular to the wall, one or more first alignment features, each of the one or more first alignment features configured to mechanically engage with a corresponding one of one or more second alignment features formed on a tray, such that the mechanical engagement between the one or more first alignment features and the one or more second alignment feature provides a desired alignment of the tray with the translating bracket for assembly of the tray to the translating bracket.
