Figure 2A And Figure 2B It is a partial schematic diagram of different perspectives of a circuit board of an embodiment of this case. Figure 2C It is Figure 2B A schematic diagram of the rotation of the extended structure. Figure 3A And Figure 3B It is to Figure 1A A process schematic diagram of inserting the extended structure of into the rib of the expansion card release structure.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 1A to 3B , the extended structure 100 of this embodiment is adapted to be disposed on the expansion card release structure 20 ( Figure 3A ), and the extended structure 100 includes a fixing part 110 and a handle part 120. The fixing part 110 is adapted to be detachably fixed to the expansion card release structure 20. The handle part 120 extends in a direction away from the fixing part 110 for driving the expansion card release structure 20 to move.

[0039] In this embodiment, the fixing part 110 is flexible and U-shaped, and the handle part 120 and the fixing part 110 together form an F shape. The material of the fixing part 110 is, for example, plastic, rubber or silica gel and can be slightly deformed. Of course, the shape of the extended structure 100 and the material of the fixing part 110 are not limited thereto. As Figure 3A And Figure 3B shown, the expansion card release structure 20 includes a rib 24 protruding from the side surface 22, and the U-shaped fixing part 110 is adapted to be clamped to the rib 24 so that the extended structure 100 is fixed to the expansion card release structure 20 as Figure 2A shown.

[0040] Specifically, in this embodiment, as Figure 1AAs shown, the fixing portion 110 includes a first section 111, a second section 112, a third section 113 that are connected in a bent manner, and a protruding portion 114 provided on the third section 113. The protruding portion 114 is located between the first section 111 and the third section 113. In this embodiment, the setting of the protruding portion 114 can make the width W1 of the opening of the U-shaped part greater than the width W2 of the interior of the U-shaped part, so that the rib 24 of the expansion card release structure 20 can be clamped by the first section 111 and the protruding portion 114 after entering the fixing portion 110, so as to fix the extension structure 100 to the expansion card release structure 20.

[0041] In addition, the first section 111 and the protruding portion 114 are provided with two inclined surfaces 115, 116 facing each other. The two inclined surfaces 115, 116 of the first section 111 and the protruding portion 114 can enable the rib 24 of the expansion card release structure 20 to enter the opening of the fixing portion 110 more smoothly.

[0042] In addition, in this embodiment, the width W3 of the first section 111 is the same as the width W4 of the third section 113, and the width W5 of the protruding portion 114 is greater than the width W4 of the third section 113. And, as Figure 1C shown, in this embodiment, the fixing portion 110 includes a recess 117 located beside the first section 111. In this embodiment, the fixing portion 110 of the extension structure 100 can correspond to the contour of the expansion card release structure 20 through the above design, so that the fixing portion 110 can be stably arranged on the expansion card release structure 20.

[0043] In one embodiment, the fixing portion 110 can also be designed such that the fixing portion 110 is flexible and the width of the opening of the U-shaped part is less than the width of the interior of the U-shaped part, so that the rib 24 is limited within the fixing portion 110 after entering the opening, so that the extension structure 100 can be fixed to the expansion card release structure 20. Of course, the dimensional relationship and shape of the fixing portion 110 are not limited thereto.

[0044] As Figures 2A to 2B shown, the circuit board 10 of this embodiment includes a circuit board body 12, an expansion card slot 14, an expansion card release structure 20, and the above-mentioned extension structure 100. The expansion card slot 14 is arranged on the circuit board body 12. The expansion card slot 14 is, for example, a PCI-E slot, but the type of the expansion card slot 14 is not limited thereto. The expansion card 30 is detachably arranged in the expansion card slot 14. The expansion card 30 is, for example, a display card, but the type of the expansion card 30 is not limited thereto.

[0045] The expansion card release structure 20 is movably disposed on the circuit board body 12 and beside the expansion card slot 14. In this embodiment, since the extension structure 100 is in an F shape, when the extension structure 100 has not driven the expansion card release structure 20 to release, the handle portion 120 extends in a direction away from the circuit board body 12. Such a design can facilitate the user to easily access the handle portion 120. Of course, in an embodiment, the handle portion 120 can also extend parallel to the circuit board body 12, or the handle portion 120 can also extend obliquely upward. In addition, the handle portion 120 can also extend beyond the range of the expansion card 30 to facilitate the user to more easily access the handle portion 120. The extension direction and length of the handle portion 120 are not limited by the drawings.

[0046] As Figure 2C shown, when the expansion card 30 is to be released, the user only needs to rotate the handle portion 120 of the extension structure 100, and the handle portion 120 can drive the fixing portion 110, thereby causing the expansion card release structure 20 to rotate and releasing the expansion card 30.

[0047] In summary, in the circuit board of this case, the fixing portion of the extension structure is detachably disposed on the expansion card release structure, the handle portion extends in a direction away from the fixing portion, and the handle portion is used to drive the expansion card release structure to move. Therefore, the user can easily apply force to the handle portion extending in the direction away from the fixing portion to drive the expansion card release structure to move, and complete the release of the expansion card, which is quite convenient and simple to use.

[0048] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this case, and are not intended to limit them; although this case has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this case.
