Patent ID: 7379303

Claim:
A computing device module for receipt within a computing device chassis, the module comprising: an enclosure; a handle movably coupled to the enclosure to move between an extended position and a retracted position, wherein the handle includes at least one opening configured to permit at least one standard hand digit to extend through the at least one opening when the handle is in the retracted position, and wherein the handle extends along only a single transverse side of the enclosure when in the retracted position, wherein the chassis includes one of a detent and a detent-engaging structure and wherein the handle includes the other of the detent and the detent-engaging structure wherein the detent-engaging structure engages the detent to retain the module within the chassis when the handle is in the retracted position and wherein the detent-engaging structure is withdrawn from the detent to permit withdrawal of the module from the chassis when the handle is in the extended position, wherein the computing device includes a first connector portion and wherein the module includes a second connector portion configured to transmit signals between the module and the computing device, wherein the chassis includes one of a detent and a detent-engaging structure and wherein the handle includes the other of the detent and the detent-engaging structure, wherein the handle pivots between the extended position and the retracted position and wherein during pivoting of the handle from the extended position towards the retracted position, the detent and detent-engaging structure are in engagement so as to urge the module into the chassis and so as to urge the second connector portion into complete connection with the first connector portion.
