A server casing includes a frame and a plate connecting structure disposed in the frame and including a plate and a board. A first rivet hole of the plate has a first outer hole edge and a first inner hole edge greater than the first outer hole edge. A first guide surface connects the first outer hole edge and the first inner hole edge. The board has a board edge corresponding to the first rivet hole. A first arm is formed on the board edge. After the first arm is pressed to abut against the first guide surface, the pressed first arm deforms along the first guide surface to be located in the first rivet hole, so as to fix the board to the plate.

Server casing and plate connecting structure thereof

A server casing includes a frame having first and second plates and a plate connecting structure including first and second side boards extending from the first and second plates respectively and having first and second opening structures and first and second riveting structures respectively. A first outer periphery of the first opening structure is larger than a first inner periphery, and a first limiting surface extends therebetween. A second outer periphery of the second opening structure is less than a second inner periphery, and a second limiting surface extends therebetween. The first and second riveting structures have third and fourth limiting surfaces respectively. When the second riveting structure is engaged with the second opening structure and the second and fourth limiting surfaces abuts against each other, the first riveting structure is pressed to engage with the first opening structure and the first and third limiting surfaces abuts against each other.

A server includes a chassis, a protecting component and at least one power supply. The chassis includes a case, a cover and a lid. The cover is disposed on the case to form at least one accommodating space, and the lid is detachably disposed on the case and covers the cover. The protecting component is assembled on the cover and includes a pressed sheet spring and a first blocking sheet spring. Both the pressed sheet spring and the first blocking sheet spring includes a bending section, and the bending sections are separated apart. The two sheet springs are fastened to the cover to form a fastening part, and the two sheet springs are connected to each other to form a movable part. The two sheet springs move simultaneously when the movable part is moved relative to the cover. The power supply is removably disposed in the accommodating space.

A fixing mechanism which is capable of assembling an expansion card module includes a base, a latch and a resilient component. The expansion card module slidably inserts into the base. The latch pivots to an accommodating portion of the base to switch between a first position and a second position. The latch includes a pressing portion and a pushing portion connected with each other. The pressing portion presses a side of the expansion card module since the latch is switched to the first position. The pushing portion pushes an opposite side of the expansion card module since the latch is switched to the second position, so as to upwardly move the expansion card module relative to the base. The resilient component is located inside the accommodating portion to actuate the latch and drives the latch to stay at the second position.
