INSTRUCTIONS · TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an expansion card holding mechanism, and more particularly to a holding mechanism for fixing an end side of an expansion card electrically inserted in an electronic device. [Prior Art] Referring to FIG. 1 , the PCI bracket 1 can be inserted into a plurality of expansion cards to be inserted into the server (not shown), and the expansion card can include an expansion card of a normal length. Or a long-length expansion card u, the long expansion card 11 has a long length, so the end will be bent by gravity and bent, which may cause damage in a long time, so if a long expansion card is inserted in the server, In contrast, the pCI holder must be made to be of an elongated type, and a groove 10 having an end edge corresponding to the mating elongated expansion card u must be provided at the end of the PCI holder 1 in order to prevent the elongated expansion card u from slipping out. Groove, available on the pci bracket! The end of the elongate expansion card 11 is fixed to the groove 1 by the end of the PCI card 1 corresponding to the open end of the PCI holder 1 In the middle. The fastening member 12 is fastened to the open end of the PCI bracket 1 corresponding to the groove 1G by a structure such as a tongue. However, the fastening method has a stable '1 lack of doubt'. The card and the fastening member 12 can only be buckled to the PCI bracket, and the buckle is slightly turned, and the servo is shocked. The buckle 2 can be easily tripped to the PCI/卞. The elongated expansion card u has the possibility of sliding out of the groove. However, the side can be shaken in the groove 〇 19761 5 200822842 ’. Moreover, the groove 10 is integrally formed on the PCI bracket, and the manufacturing difficulty of the PCI bracket 1 is increased to increase the manufacturing cost.卞 Therefore, how to effectively solve the above-mentioned lack of conventional technology has become a problem that is currently being solved.
