Abstract
Air moving device (AMD) packaging apparatus includes an AMD carriage structure and an associated frame receiving the AMD carriage structure. The AMD carriage structure includes an AMD holder section pivotally connected to a driver section. The associated frame is mounted in a housing of a system to be cooled and includes elongated slots defining cooperating tracks for receiving the AMD carriage structure. The AMD holder section and the driver section include outwardly extending protrusions or posts slideably received within the cooperating tracks in the associated frame to position an AMD contained within the AMD holder section in an operating position within the associated frame.
