Abstract:
An air mover assembly may be configured such that during insertion of the assembly into an air mover gantry, one or more spring features integral to the gantry apply a first spring force opposite to a direction of insertion of the assembly relative to the gantry in order to maintain the assembly in an unseated position until the first spring force is overcome by an opposite force to fully seat assembly into the gantry and when the assembly is fully seated within the gantry, the one or more spring features integral to the gantry apply a second spring force to the assembly in a direction of air flow through an air mover of the assembly that biases an exhaust portion of the air mover toward a face of the gantry opposite of the one or more spring features.
