First Claim
Patent Images
1. A case for confining a first circuit card to a particular location within a housing, the case comprising:
- a pair of opposing end walls;
a pair of opposing side walls coupled to the end walls;
wherein the pair of end walls and the side walls form a slot;
an actuator disposed within the slot, the actuator engageable with the first circuit card for clamping the first circuit card between the actuator and one of the pair of opposing end walls of the case;
a second circuit card; and
a partition sandwiched between the first and second circuit cards; and
wherein the actuator is engageable with one of the circuit cards.

9. A case for confining a pair of circuit cards to different locations within a housing, the case comprising:
-
a pair of opposing side walls and first and second end walls;
a partition disposed between the first and second end walls that divides the case into a first slot bounded by a portion of each of the side walls, the partition, and the first end wall and a second slot bounded by another portion of each of the side walls, the partition, and the second end wall, the first and second slots each containing one of the circuit cards; and
an actuator engageable with the circuit card in the first slot for clamping the circuit card in the first slot, the partition, and the circuit card in the second slot between the actuator and the second end wall. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
