Patent ID: 8911251

Claim:
A system comprising: a sliding tray for retaining one or more electronic components within a server chassis, the sliding tray configured to slide in a sliding direction between a first position and a second position, the sliding tray inside the server chassis in the first position and the sliding tray at least partially outside the server chassis in the second position; a power terminal mechanically coupled to the sliding tray, the power terminal comprising a first conductor for coupling a high supply voltage to the one or more electronic components and a second conductor for coupling a low supply voltage to the one or more electronic components; a first connecting finger conductively coupled to the first conductor of the power terminal, the first connecting finger having a surface configured to contact a first bus bar, the first connecting finger conductively contacting the first bus bar while the tray is sliding from the second to the first position, and the surface making conductive contact with the first bus bar being stationary with respect to the sliding tray when the sliding tray moves along the sliding direction; a second connecting finger conductively coupled to the second conductor of the power terminal, the second connecting finger having a surface configured to contact a second bus bar, the second connecting finger conductively contacting the second bus while the tray is sliding from the second to the first position, and the surface making conductive contact with the second bus bar being stationary with respect to the sliding tray when the sliding tray moves along the sliding direction; the first bus bar, oriented parallel to the sliding direction of the tray, the first bus bar providing the high supply voltage to the first conducting finger; and the second bus bar, oriented parallel to the sliding direction of the tray, the second bus bar providing the low supply voltage to the second conducting finger.
