Ejectable fan with push-push attachment mechanism and corresponding methods
Abstract:
A fan receiver assembly (1200) includes a fan receiver (101). The fan receiver includes a rear wall (128) and at least one sidewall (112). At least one deformable clasp (105) is coupled to, and translatable along, the sidewall. The deformable clasp includes at least one latching arm (142) that is pivotable between an axially displaced open position occurring when the latching arm extends beyond a terminal end sidewall and a parallel position occurring when the latching arm is situated between the terminal end and the rear wall. The sidewall defines a d-track (111) having a terminal end (125) and an outward notch (126). A follower situates within the d-track between the deformable clasp and the sidewall. A fan module (102) latches to the fan receiver assembly when the follower situates within the outward notch.
