Hard disk drive lever with button-induced ejection, and over-travel button-induced ejection, and over-travel indicator

摘要

A hard disk drive bracket including a bezel, a lever arm attached to the bezel rotatably between a closed position against the bezel and an open position apart from the bezel, and a unitarily formed body attached to the bezel. The lever arm includes an extension on the rotating end. The unitarily formed body includes a locking member adapted to secure the lever arm in the closed position and a release button arranged to release the locking member when the release button is depressed. The unitarily formed body may be adapted to serve as a horn attached to the bezel rotatably between a natural position in which the locking member impedes the path of the lever arm, and a forced position in which the locking member is clear of the path of the lever arm.
