The invention provides an expansion card adapted for a motherboard, in which the motherboard includes a first slot, and the first slot is located at a surface of the motherboard. The expansion card includes a circuit board, a heat-dissipating module and a supporter. The circuit board includes a connecting interface configured for being inserted into the first slot of the motherboard. The heat-dissipating module is disposed at a side of the circuit board and has a bottom surface. When the expansion card is inserted into the first slot, the supporter is disposed at the bottom surface of the heat-dissipating module so that the bottom surface of the heat-dissipating module is substantially parallel to the surface of the motherboard.

Expansion card

A hinge module is described. A T-shaped frame is pivotally connected with a base portion at one end such that the T-shaped frame rotates around a first axis relative to the base portion. A pair of connection members are pivotally connected with the other two opposite ends of the T-shaped frame such that the pair of connection members rotates around a second axis relative to the T-shaped frame, wherein the second axis is perpendicular to the first axis, and led through a cavity of the T-shaped frame. A U-shaped casing is manual-detachably connected with the T-shaped frame to fully cover a cavity of the T-shaped frame.
