LOW PROFILE COMPLIANT LATCH ASSEMBLY AND ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT CARD AND CHASSIS INCORPORATING SAME |
摘要 |
A latch assembly operable for securing an electronic circuit card in a chassis such that connectors associated with the electronic circuit card and a backplane of the chassis are properly coupled, the latch assembly including: an elongate handle structure, wherein a proximal end of the elongate handle structure defines a hole and includes a protruding portion that is configured to engage a recess or lip associated with the chassis, and wherein a distal end of the elongate handle structure includes a handle portion; a spring structure partially obstructing the hole defined by the proximal end of the elongate handle structure; and a rotation member disposed through the hole and configured to engage the electronic circuit card, wherein the spring structure partially obstructing the hole contacts a portion of the rotation member. |

1. A latch assembly operable for securing an electronic circuit card in a chassis such that connectors associated with the electronic circuit card and a backplane of the chassis are properly coupled, the latch assembly comprising:
an elongate handle structure, wherein a proximal end of the elongate handle structure defines a hole and includes a protruding portion that is configured to engage a recess or lip associated with the chassis, and wherein a distal end of the elongate handle structure includes a handle portion; an elongate spring structure disposed within or adjacent to the elongate handle structure, wherein a distal end of the elongate spring structure is coupled to the distal end of the elongate handle structure, and wherein a proximal end of the elongate spring structure partially obstructs the hole defined by the proximal end of the elongate handle structure; and a rotation member disposed through the hole and configured to engage the electronic circuit card, wherein the proximal end of the elongate spring structure that partially obstructs the hole contacts a portion of the rotation member. |
