Specifically, since the expansion card supporting frame 14 is located at the second side 1312 of the card body 131 when the vehicle moves, the expansion card supporting frame 14 can stop the second side 1312 of the expansion card 13 by two stop sections 1422 in addition to the assembly plate 112 that can facilitate the installation of the expansion card supporting frame 14 adjacent to the second side 1312 of the card body 131 to support the vibration of the expansion card 13 in the vertical direction, and since the two clamping portions 142 jointly clamp the opposite surfaces of the second side 1312 of the card body 131, the expansion card supporting frame 14 can support the vibration of the expansion card 13 in the horizontal direction. Therefore, the expansion card 13 can be firmly inserted into the circuit board 12.
In addition, since the expansion card supporting frame 14 is movably disposed in the chute 1121 of the assembling plate 112, the supporting position of the expansion card supporting frame 14 can be adjusted according to different sizes of the expansion card 13. In this way, the flexibility in mounting the expansion card 13 can be improved.
In this embodiment, the expansion card support bracket 14 may also include a second fastener 144. The second fastening member 144 is disposed between the two extension sections 1421 of the two clamping portions 142, so that the two clamping portions 142 tightly clamp the second side 1312 of the card body 131 together. In this way, the card body 131 can be positioned even further.
In this embodiment, the movable portion 141 of the expansion card support 14 may further include a positioning protrusion 1411.

In addition, the second fastening member 144 is inserted through the two extension sections 1421 of the two clamping portions 142, so that the two clamping portions 142 tightly clamp the second side 1312 of the card body 131 together to further position the card body 131.
In addition, as shown in fig. 6, the expansion card supporting frame 14 is movably disposed on the chute 1121 of the assembly plate 112 through the first fastening member 15, so that the supporting position of the expansion card supporting frame 14 can be adjusted in the direction C or the direction D along the chute 1121 according to the size of the expansion card 13. Thus, the expansion card 13 can be firmly mounted on the circuit board 12 by the support of the expansion card support frame 14.
In the expansion card support frame and the electronic device provided by the embodiment of the application, because the opposite two surfaces of the second side of the card body in the expansion card are clamped by the two clamping parts of the expansion card support frame by the Internet of vehicles server, the expansion card can be firmly arranged on the circuit board, so that the situation that the expansion card is separated from the expansion slot due to vibration generated by the vehicle during movement is avoided, and the damage of the expansion slot due to vibration generated by the vehicle during movement can be avoided.
Specifically, when the vehicle moves, since the expansion card support frame is located at the second side of the card body, besides the assembly plate which can facilitate the installation of the expansion card support frame adjacent to the second side of the card body, the expansion card support frame can also stop the second side of the expansion card through two stop sections so as to support the vibration of the expansion card in the vertical direction, and since the two clamping parts jointly clamp the opposite two surfaces of the second side of the card body, the expansion card support frame can support the vibration of the expansion card in the horizontal direction. Thus, the expansion card can be firmly inserted into the circuit board.
In addition, because the expansion card support frame is movably arranged in the chute of the assembly plate, the support position of the expansion card support frame can be adjusted according to different sizes of the expansion card. Thus, flexibility in installing the expansion card can be improved.
