Abstract
An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a cooling mass. The apparatus includes a cooling block having an opening to receive a portion of the cooling mass. The apparatus having a spring element to be rotated about an axis of rotation. An obstruction between a hot pluggable electronic component and an electro-mechanical connector is to be removed by the spring element's rotation. The cooling mass is to be pressed toward the hot pluggable electronic component in response to a force induced by the spring element's rotation.
