ABSTRACT:
An information handling system lid releases from an associated housing with an actuator that frees the lid and then pushes the lid from a secured position to an unsecured position for ease of removal. The actuator rotationally couples through the housing to translate a user rotation of the actuator to open and then move the lid. On the interior of the housing, the actuator is a cam having a latch push and an inclined surface. The latch push moves a latch to an open position upon initial movement of the actuator and holds the latch in the open position to release a latch catch of the lid and allow movement of the lid. The inclined surface pushes against a lid removal protrusion extending from the lid and moves the lid an increasing distance as the actuator turns to complete release of the lid from the housing by sliding hooks of the lid from slots of the housing.
