[0020] The structural features of the present invention are now described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] See also Figures 1-4 A multi-card tool-free disassembly and assembly structure includes a housing 1. A plurality of PCIE module mounting holes 11 are arranged side by side at one end of the interior of the housing 1. A PCIE module bracket 3 is detachably mounted on the PCIE module mounting hole 11. A PCIE module is fixed to the PCIE module bracket 3. A support ear 34 for fixing the PCIE module is bent on one side of the PCIE module bracket 3. The PCIE module fixing support ear 34 forms an integral detachable structure with the PCIE module bracket 3. To facilitate the installation of the PCIE module, the top of the housing 1 is an open structure with an adaptable cover 2 provided on the opening. When installing the PCIE module, the cover 2 can be removed first to increase the operating space for installing the PCIE module.

[0022] A support plate 12 and a limiting slot 13 are respectively provided on the shell 1 and located above and below the PCIE module mounting hole 11. In order to solve the cost and strength issues, the support plate 12 is formed by bending sheet metal, and the limiting slot 13 is formed by stamping. The support plate 12 and the limiting slot 13 are an integral structure with the shell 1.
