Systems and methods for mounting components to an information handling resource module
An information handling system may include a plurality of connectors and a mount structure configured to mechanically couple to a first connector and a second connector of the plurality of connectors. Each connector of the plurality of connectors may be configured to mechanically and electrically couple to a respective information handling resource.
1 . An information handling system comprising:
a plurality of connectors, wherein each connector is configured to mechanically and electrically couple to a respective information handling resource; and
a mount structure configured to mechanically couple to a first connector and a second connector of the plurality of connectors, wherein the mount structure comprises:
a first support structure comprising a first attachment mechanism configured to mechanically couple to the first connector;
a second support structure comprising a second attachment mechanism configured to mechanically couple to the second connector; and
a top support structure connecting the first support structure and the second support structure, wherein the top support structure comprises a plurality of alignment features configured to mechanically couple to one or more removable accessories, wherein the plurality of alignment features are further configured to prevent the one or more removable accessories from coming into contact with the information handling resources.
2 . The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the mount structure is further configured to couple to the one or more removable mechanical accessories such that the one or more removable mechanical accessories are arranged in alternating order with the information handling resources.
3 . The information handling system of claim 2 , wherein the one or more removable mechanical accessories comprises a thermal insert.
4 . The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the mount structure is further configured to couple to the one or more removable mechanical accessories such that the one or more removable mechanical accessories are positioned outside of the plurality of connectors.
5 . The information handling system of claim 4 , wherein the one or more removable mechanical accessories comprises a guard insert configured to protect the information handling resources.
6 . A mount structure configured to mechanically couple to a first connector and a second connector of a plurality of connectors, wherein each connector is configured to mechanically and electrically couple to a respective information handling resource, and wherein the mount structure comprises:
a first support structure comprising a first attachment mechanism configured to mechanically couple to the first connector; and
a second support structure comprising a second attachment mechanism configured to mechanically couple to the second connector; and
a top support structure connecting the first support structure and the second support structure, wherein the top support structure comprises a plurality of alignment features configured to mechanically couple to one or more removable mechanical accessories, wherein the plurality of alignment features are further configured to prevent the one or more removable mechanical accessories from coming into contact with the information handling resources.
7 . The mount structure of claim 6 , wherein the mount structure is further configured to couple to the one or more removable mechanical accessories such that the one or more removable mechanical accessories are arranged in alternating order with the information handling resources.
8 . The mount structure of claim 7 , wherein the one or more removable mechanical accessories comprises a thermal insert.
9 . The mount structure of claim 6 , wherein the mount structure is further configured to couple to the one or more removable mechanical accessories such that the one or more removable mechanical accessories are positioned outside of the plurality of connectors.
10 . The mount structure of claim 9 , wherein the one or more removable mechanical accessories comprises a guard insert configured to protect the information handling resources.
11 . A method of making a mount structure configured to mechanically couple to a first connector and a second connector of a plurality of connectors, wherein each connector is configured to mechanically and electrically couple to a respective information handling resource, the method comprising:
forming a first support structure comprising a first attachment mechanism configured to mechanically couple to the first connector; and
forming a second support structure comprising a second attachment mechanism configured to mechanically couple to the second connector; and
wherein the first support structure and second support structure are connected by a top support structure comprising a plurality of alignment features configured to mechanically couple to one or more removable mechanical accessories, wherein the plurality of alignment features are further configured to prevent the one or more removable mechanical accessories from coming into contact with the information handling resources.
12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the mount structure is further configured to couple to the one or more removable mechanical accessories such that the one or more removable mechanical accessories are arranged in alternating order with the information handling resources.
13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the one or more removable mechanical accessories comprises a thermal insert.
14 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the mount structure is further configured to couple to the one or more removable mechanical accessories such that the one or more removable mechanical accessories are arranged outside of the plurality of connectors.
15 . The mount structure of claim 14 , wherein the one or more removable mechanical accessories comprises a guard insert configured to protect the information handling resources.
