    摘要: Systems and methods are described for maintaining secure and contiguous guide transitions in the context of modular installations. Embodiments of the guides are configured to automatically register and couple with each other during installation of their respective modules to provide relatively high tolerance guide transitions, even in the context of relatively lower tolerance modular installations. In some embodiments, a guide is configured to be biased in a first position when its respective module is not installed. When its module is located in a partial-install location relative to an adjacent module with the guide in the first position, guide features mechanically register with features of the adjacent module's guide. When moved into a full-install position, the guide moves into a second position causing the guide to finally register and couple with the adjacent guide, thereby manifesting a stable and contiguous transition between the guides.

    摘要: Embodiments include systems and methods for securing a magazine in a housing using a latching system. Embodiments operate in context of a storage library having removable magazines that store data cartridges. For example, a floating, two-part latching system operates in either an operable state or an unlatched state. The latching system includes a setter and a latch, where the latch is configured to float on the setter and to be biased into a latched position. When the setter is in a first position, it permits the latch to float between at least a fully latched position and a fully unlatched position. When the setter is moved to a second position, it moves the latch into the fully unlatched position and restricts the latch from moving into the latched position.
