Electronics assembly

An electronics assembly which comprises a frame that contains a motherboard and a plurality of daughterboards that extend in a plane generally perpendicular to the plane of the motherboard and are connected to the motherboard by means of connectors, the frame having:

• (i) an opening opposite the motherboard to allow insertion of the daughterboards into the frame or removal of the daughterboards from the frame in a direction normal to the plane of the motherboard;
• (ii) an injector/ejector mechanism for each daughterboard that is located on the daughterboard or the frame and engages the frame or the daughterboard respectively in a region adjacent to the opening;
• and
• (iii) a flange that extends therealong at or adjacent to the opening and on which the injector/ejector mechanism of each daughterboard is attached or engages at different locations along the length thereof,
• wherein the flange is divided into separate sections that correspond to the different locations to allow the flange to flex at any location therealong during insertion of a daughterboard without the flexing affecting the position of any adjacent location of the flange with respect to the motherboard.
