Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, in installations where the equipment is subject to vibration or is mounted on movable equipment, the rigid mounting of the equipment to the chassis will render fans or other equipment inoperable or short-circuited, especially if the when the material is made
In addition, conventional equipment requires time and labor to install, since many equipment consist of two pieces that need to be joined together during installation, and additional effort and cost are required in mounting such equipment to the chassis, while maintaining a large Parts and Parts Inventory

Embodiment Construction

[0026] refer to Figure 1-4 , a typical frame F is attached to a chassis or panel C by a mounting device 10 embodying the invention. The frame F and the panel C have respective holes A1 and A2 for receiving the mounting device 10 . Frame F may contain fan B, which is subject to vibration and requires a resilient mounting system.

[0027] Mounting device 10 is preferably molded from silicone rubber and can be stretched longitudinally. The mounting device 10 is preferably formed with a series of enlarged axially spaced undulations 11 having a diameter larger than the holes A1 and A2 of the frame F and chassis C, and the shaft 12 of the mounting device 10 generally has these Diameter of holes A1 and A2. The front surface 14 of these undulations 11 is preferably tapered towards the axis 12, and the mounting device 10 can be elongated sufficiently to allow the undulations to pass through apertures A1 and A2 when elongated, and to snap around when undone. The wall W of the hole....

Abstract

A flexible and stretchable mounting device for a fan or the like which has a shaft, a series of enlarged undulations axially arranged at one end of the shaft, and a head at one end of the shaft, the mounting device being adapted when stretched for insertion into aligned apertures on a chassis and a frame and relaxed to permit a selected undulation to hold the frame in spaced relation to the chassis. The device also includes a break away grip secured to the head for guiding the device into the apertures when stretched and which can be severed from the head when the device is arranged mounted on the chassis and frame.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a general purpose flexible fan mount for mounting a fan or other device on a frame, or more particularly, for example, to a mount for an electronic device or other For ventilation of heat generating structures such as computers. Background technique [0002] Typically, such equipment may be mounted by bolts or other fasteners used to attach the frame to the panel or chassis to which it is attached. However, the frame or chassis varies within defined dimensions in different manufacturing processes and often requires various dimensions for installation. Furthermore, in installations where the equipment is subject to vibration or is mounted on movable equipment, the rigid mounting of the equipment to the chassis will render fans or other equipment inoperable or short-circuited, especially if the when the material is made. In addition, conventional equipment requires time and labor to install, since many equipment consis...
