ABSTRACT:
A levered handle has an elongated slot that allows the levered handle to both slide and pivot over a pivot axis. The levered handle is slid over the pivot axis to allow a notch engager to engage a notch on a memory module. Then the notch engager is forced downward as the levered handle pivots upward about the pivot axis, causing a downward force to be applied to the notch on the memory module. This forces the memory module into a memory module socket. The memory module socket requires a reduced insertion force because the notch engager on the levered handle engages the notch on the memory module and applies downward pressure. A levered handle without the elongated slot can slide along the pivot axis perpendicular to the memory module to engage the notch. Both ejection and insertion forces can be reduced.
