Abstract
A fixing module for fixing a card module and a case having the fixing module are provided. The fixing module includes a base and a sliding element. The base is disposed on a bracket and includes a carrying portion, a cantilever hook, and a constraining structure. The sliding element includes a resilient portion and a body. The body is movably disposed on the carrying portion of the base. The constraining structure is adapted to contact the body and constrain a movement of the body when the sliding element is in a locked position, and the resilient portion constrains the locking bracket of the card module on the bracket. When a force is exerted on the cantilever hook to disengage the constraining structure from the body, the sliding element is moved to an unlocked position under the influence of an elastic restoring force of the resilient portion.
