Therefore a PDU can be more easily deployed without requiring the re-cabling of equipment currently secured to the rack, getting a different bracket or drilling new holes in the L-shaped bracket. Further the use of the thumbscrew 12 allows easy adjustment of the position of the base plate along the PDU without tools.
- the base plates and brackets discussed above may be composed of metal or other similarly strong materials such as high-impact plastic.

Abstract
Description
- This application claims the priority of U.S. provisional patent application Ser. No. 61/081,637 to Chan et al. filed Jul. 17, 2008 and entitled Slotted Toolless Bracket for PDU.
- Racks are standardized frames or enclosures for mounting multiple equipment modules such as computer servers. A number of different standard dimensions exist in the industry for such racks. One such standard is a 19″ width, often used in the computing industry. This standard requires that each equipment module has a front panel that is 19 inches or 480 mm wide, including edges or ears that protrude on each side which allow the module to be fastened to the rack frame with screws. Rack-mountable equipment is mounted by bolting the ears of the front panel front panel to the rack. Note that equipment modules are given in standard heights of 1.75″, referred to as a “rack unit” or a “U”. A rack will come in many different heights. Many racks are sold in a 42U form. Therefore, it should be clear that a common rack may contain many equipment modules, for instance many servers. It is well known problem in the art of data center design and management that such racks that, as the racks accumulate servers and other computer equipment, they become very crowded in the rear due to the many cables for data and power for the many equipment modules. A number of other types of electronics are attached to the rear of the server rack for easy access to such cabling and to avoid taking space in the rack itself. This equipment is may be referred to as “Zero U”—as it takes up no space in the rack. One type of such of equipment which often is secured to the rear portion of the server rack is the Power Distribution Unit. A Power Distribution Unit (“PDU”) is a device that distributes electric power. PDU in this context refers to what amounts to a well-constructed power strip suitable for data center use. Such equipment as the PDU may be a Zero U device, with the advantage of not taking up space for other equipment in the rack. Such PDUs are typically mounted to the rear vertical server rails via a bracket, parallel to the vertical server rail. More specifically, a PDU may have groves or channels on its bottom to enable a PDU bracket to be mounted on to the PDU at any location along the length of the PDU. This PDU bracket may then be mounted directly to holes in the vertical rails of the server rack via a button mount which is fasted in a removable manner to the PDU bracket facing out from the PDU.
- There is often not sufficient space for such a button mounting of a PDU—the volume of cabling will often make finding space for the PDU in the rear of the rack difficult. Therefore, there remains in the art a need for a method of mounting a “Zero U” PDU to a rack while avoiding blocking the data and power cables connected to the equipment modules mounted within the rack.
- One embodiment of the present invention includes an apparatus for the mounting of a zero unit PDU having gutters to a rack having mounting rails. The apparatus includes a base plate having a main plate with multiple holes and a first and second flange. The base plate also includes a thumbscrew penetrating one flange and attached on the opposite side to pressure plate. The pressure plate is used by the flange to press against the side of one of the gutters to secure the base plate to the PDU securely. The apparatus further includes an L-bracket having a first plate in the second plate. The first plate has penetrated by multiple parallel slots; the slots are each in a plain orthogonal to the line defined by the vertical mounting rail of a rack. The second plate extends orthogonal to the first plate face at a 90° angle. The second plate has mounting holes for mounting the apparatus to be vertical mounting rails of the rack. The parallel slots allow some movement and the 90° orthogonal L-bracket allows the PDU to be out of the way of cabling.

An L-shaped mounting bracket or L-bracket 24 having afirst plate 26 and asecond plate 28 is shown adjacent to themain plate 4 of thebase plate 2. Thefirst plate 26 has 3slots second plate 28 has mountingholes 36. Theparallel slots holes 6 to be not blocked. -
FIG. 4 shows the L-bracket 24 ofFIGS. 3 a and 3 b in application. PDU 18 hasgutters 20.Base plate 2 is attached togutters 20 via theflanges thumbscrew 12. L-bracket 24 is attached tobase plate 2. L-bracket 24 has afirst plate 26 which is attached to flush to themain plate 4 of thebase plate 2 viascrews parallel slots first plate 26 and theholes 6 of themain plate 4. Thesecond plate 28 extends orthogonally from thefirst plate 26. Amounting hole 46 are provided in thesecond plate 28. Thesecond plate 28 will be mounted to the rear vertical rails of the rack not shown. - The
parallel slots parallel slots thumbscrew 12 allows easy adjustment of the position of the base plate along the PDU without tools. - As will be appreciated, numerous variations and combinations of the features discussed above can be utilized without departing from present invention as defined by the claims. For example, the base plates and brackets discussed above may be composed of metal or other similarly strong materials such as high-impact plastic. Further, rather than screws other fasters may be used such as clips, bolts, or other such devices. Accordingly, the foregoing description of the preferred embodiments should be taken by way of illustration rather than by way of limitation of the present invention.
