Specifically, when the front shell 13 is connected with the lining plate 12 in a clamping manner, the clamping claws 1301 are clamped into the clamping grooves 1221, and the clamping claws 1301 are matched with the clamping grooves 1221, so that the front shell 13 is connected with the lining plate 12.

In order to improve the connection strength, the second clamping portion 130 further includes a first insertion tongue 1302, the first clamping portion 122 further includes a first positioning groove 1222, and the first insertion tongue 1302 is inserted into the first positioning groove 1222.

Specifically, when assembling, the first tongue 1302 is inserted into the first positioning groove 1222 to pre-position the front shell 13 and the lining plate 12, and then the claw 1301 is clamped in the clamping groove 1221 to complete the assembly between the front shell 13 and the lining plate 12.

The opening directions of the first positioning groove 1222 and the card slot 1221 are arranged back to back. In this way, the connection portion formed by the latch and the latch slot 1221 and the connection portion formed by the first insertion tongue 1302 and the first positioning slot 1222 are matched with each other, so that the front shell 13 can be more firmly and reliably fixed on the outer wall of the lining board 12.

In another embodiment, since the pawl 1301 and the first insertion tongue 1302 are both located on the inner wall of the front shell 13, when assembled, the inner wall of the front shell 13 and the outer wall of the lining plate 12 are matched with each other, so that it is difficult for an operator to accurately insert the first insertion tongue 1302 into the positioning groove.

For this, a first guide sliding groove 124 and a second guide sliding groove 125 may be provided on an outer surface of the liner 12, the first guide sliding groove 124 extending to the catching groove 1221, and the second guide sliding groove 125 extending to the catching groove.

Specifically, during assembly, the operator may first place the pawl 1301 in the first guide chute 124, and simultaneously place the first insertion tongue 1302 in the second guide chute 125.

Then, the operator slides the front housing 13 along the first and second guide sliding grooves 124 and 125 to accurately insert the first insertion tongue 1302 into the first positioning groove 1222 and finally to clamp the pawl 1301 in the clamping groove 1221.

Under the guiding action of the first guide sliding groove 124 and the second guide sliding groove 125, the guide sliding grooves can cooperate with the first insertion tongue 1302 and the claw 1301 to guide the front shell 13 to slide.

Furthermore, at the initial stage of installation, the distance between the front shell 13 and the lining plate 12 can be relatively long, so that an operator can conveniently observe the positions of the claw 1301 and the first insertion tongue 1302, and further the claw 1301 and the first insertion tongue 1302 are accurately placed in the corresponding guide sliding grooves.

Then, during the sliding process along the guiding sliding groove, the distance between the front shell 13 and the lining plate 12 gradually decreases, and the operator relies on the guiding function of the guiding sliding groove to ensure that the first inserting tongue 1302 is inserted into the first positioning groove 1222 first.

Finally, the claws 1301 are caught in the catching grooves 1221 to firmly couple the front case 13 and the liner 12 together.
