The rigid-flexible plate can be stacked by the rivet 6 through the rivet hole 7 in advance, and then the guide rod 8 is inserted through the guide hole 9 of the stacked rigid-flexible plate to fix the rigid-flexible plate between the base 1 and the pressing plate 4. The rivet 6 and the rivet hole 7 are used to fix the two PCB substrates and the flexible substrate between the two PCB substrates, thereby improving the overall stability of the rigid-flexible printed board structure.
