Abstract

Apparatus and methods that employ divider walls that are configured for insertion and proper positioning within a cavity of an information handling system chassis enclosure in a mechanically non-interfering manner prior to securement of the divider wall in a fixed position within the cavity. A divider wall may be provided that is shorter than the height of a corresponding chassis enclosure cavity to allow the divider wall to be freely inserted and fixed in position within the chassis cavity in perpendicular relationship between two opposing cavity interior surfaces without any resulting compressive forces being applied to the respective ends of the divider wall by the opposing interior surfaces of the chassis enclosure cavity.

Claims (58)

1. A method of installing a divider wall assembly within a cavity of a chassis enclosure that is defined between a first side and a second side of the chassis enclosure, the method comprising:

positioning a divider wall of the divider wall assembly within the cavity of the chassis enclosure in perpendicular orientation to a plane of a first side and a second side of the chassis enclosure with at least one floating extension coupled to a first end of the divider wall in retracted position so as to create an open gap between a first end of the divider wall and a first side of the chassis enclosure and so as to create an open gap between a first end of the retracted floating extension and the first side of the chassis enclosure;

positioning at least one fixed extension extending from the second end of the divider wall into a corresponding opening defined in a second side of the chassis enclosure to secure the second end of the divider wall to the second side of the chassis enclosure with the divider wall assembly positioned in perpendicular orientation to the plane of the first side and the second side of the chassis enclosure;

then raising the at least one floating extension to an extended position to contact and secure the first end of the divider wall to the first side of the chassis enclosure with the first end of the divider wall secured to the first side of the chassis enclosure by the floating extension;

where the divider wall further comprises at least one flange extending outward from a side of the second end of the divider wall; where the fixed extension comprises a L-shaped plate that is spaced apart from the flange to form an insertion gap between the flange and the plate; and where the method further comprises:

inserting the plate of the fixed extension through the opening in the second side of the chassis enclosure at the same time that one side of the divider wall assembly is oriented at an acute angle to the second side of the chassis enclosure and

then rotating the divider wall assembly into perpendicular orientation to the plane of the first side and the second side of the chassis enclosure to cause the insertion gap to receive the second side of the chassis enclosure between the plate and the flange of the divider wall assembly to prevent the fixed extension from being removed from the opening in the second side of the chassis enclosure to secure the second end of the divider wall to the second side of the chassis enclosure.

2. The method of claim 1 , where the step of positioning comprises positioning the divider wall assembly into the chassis cavity such that no contact occurs between the first side of the chassis enclosure and either a first end of the floating extension or the first end of the divider wall when the divider wall assembly is positioned in perpendicular orientation to the plane of the first side and the second side of the chassis enclosure.

3. The method of claim 1 , where the floating extension is configured to receive a fastener to secure the first end of the divider wall to the first side of the chassis enclosure after the divider wall assembly is positioned in perpendicular orientation to the plane of the first side and the second side of the chassis enclosure.

6. A method of installing a divider wall assembly within a cavity of a chassis enclosure that is defined between a first side and a second side of the chassis enclosure, the method comprising:

positioning a divider wall of the divider wall assembly within the cavity of the chassis enclosure in perpendicular orientation to a plane of a first side and a second side of the chassis enclosure with at least one floating extension coupled to a first end of the divider wall in retracted position so as to create an open gap between a first end of the divider wall and a first side of the chassis enclosure and so as to create an open gap between a first end of the retracted floating extension and the first side of the chassis enclosure;

positioning at least one fixed extension extending from the second end of the divider wall into a corresponding opening defined in a second side of the chassis enclosure to secure the second end of the divider wall to the second side of the chassis enclosure with the divider wall assembly positioned in perpendicular orientation to the plane of the first side and the second side of the chassis enclosure;

then raising the at least one floating extension to an extended position to contact and secure the first end of the divider wall to the first side of the chassis enclosure with the first end of the divider wall secured to the first side of the chassis enclosure by the floating extension;

inserting the plate of the fixed extension through the opening defined in the second side of the chassis enclosure at the same time the divider wall assembly is oriented in a perpendicular direction to the plane of the first side and the second side of the chassis enclosure, and

then sliding the divider wall assembly longitudinally relative to the second side of the chassis enclosure to cause each of the opposing insertion gaps to receive the second side of the chassis enclosure between one of flanges and the T-shaped plate within a narrowed slot that is defined contiguously with the opening within the second side of the chassis opening at the same time that the divider wall assembly is oriented in a perpendicular position to the plane of the first side and the second side of the chassis enclosure to prevent the fixed extension from being removed from the opening and slot defined in the second side of the chassis enclosure to secure the second end of the divider wall to the second side of the chassis enclosure.

7. The method of claim 6 , where the step of positioning comprises positioning the divider wall assembly into the chassis cavity such that no contact occurs between the first side of the chassis enclosure and either a first end of the floating extension or the first end of the divider wall when the divider wall assembly is positioned in perpendicular orientation to the plane of the first side and the second side of the chassis enclosure.
