20150234347 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MOUNTING AN EXTERNALLY READABLE MONITORING MODULE ON A ROTATING CUSTOMER REPLACEABLE COMPONENT IN AN OPERATING DEVICE - A system and method are provided for facilitating high quality communications in an image forming device by providing a mechanism that fixes a position of an electronically readable/writable memory module, such as a customer replaceable unit monitor (CRUM) for a rotatable customer replaceable unit (CRU), with respect to a CRUM reader in the image forming device. A ring-like mounting device is non-fixedly attached to the CRU in a manner that limits axial relative movement between the ring-like mounting device and the CRU along a rotating axis of the CRU. The non-fixed attachment of the ring-like mounting device to the CRU is effected in such a manner so as not to inhibit relative rotational movement. In operation, a projection from the ring-like mounting device stops rotation of the ring-like mounting device, and therefore the CRUM mounted thereon, with respect to the image forming device structure, and specifically the CRUM reader. | 08-20-2015 |

The circuit board frame and circuit board assembly are designed and fabricated so that the first region is located inside a circuit board chassis and the heat sink is located outside the circuit board chassis when the circuit board frame or the circuit board assembly is assembled into the circuit board chassis by insertion into at least one slot within a sidewall of the circuit board chassis. The at least one slot within the sidewall of the circuit board chassis may have straight sidewalls, or alternatively tapered sidewalls that may ease insertion and assembly of the circuit board frame or circuit board assembly into the circuit board chassis. Protrusion of the heat sink, which is contiguous with the first region, through the circuit board chassis sidewall improves thermal transfer efficiency from a circuit board to the heat sink in-part via reduction of thermal transfer inhibiting interfaces. | 07-05-2012 |
