Patent attributes
An electronics rack comprising a frame, a heat sink coupled to the frame, and a cage adapted to support an electronic component. The cage is movable between first and second positions toward and away from the heat sink. The rack further includes an eccentric cam operatively positioned between the frame and the cage and being rotatable to move the cage between the first and second positions. In one embodiment, the cage comprises a cooling brick movable toward and away from the heat sink when the cage moves between the first and second positions. The cooling brick can include a first heat pipe extending generally in a first direction and a second heat pipe extending generally in a second direction transverse to the first direction. For example, the first heat pipe can be embedded in a top plate and the second heat pipe can be embedded in a top cold rail.
