Claim 13:
14. An electronic device, having a case accommodating a main board therein, and the case having an insertion opening; characterized in that the electronic device further has a replaceable frame assembly accommodating an expansion card module, and the replaceable frame assembly comprising:
a base plate;
a first fixing unit, being disposed on a front side of the base plate, and comprising at least one front panel connecting members and a plug receiving member;
a second fixing unit, being disposed on a first lateral side of the base plate, and comprising at least one fixation plate connecting members;
a front panel, being connected to the front side of the base plate through the at least one front panel connecting members, and having a first opening;
at least one first electrical connection interface, being disposed on the base plate, and being positioned near a rear side of the base plate;
a second electrical connection interface, being disposed on the base plate, and being positioned near a second lateral side of the base plate;
a third electrical connection interface, being connected between the second electrical connection interface and the at least one first electrical connection interface; and
a fixation plate, being connected to the first lateral side of base plate through the at least one fixation plate connecting members, and there being a fixing member formed on a front side of the fixation plate, such that the fixing member passes through the first opening;
wherein in case of an expansion card module consisting of a circuit board assembly and a mounting bracket being disposed on the base plate, an electrical connection member of the circuit board assembly being connected with the second electrical connection interface, thereby being further coupled to said first electrical connection interface through the second electrical connection interface and the third electrical connection interface;
wherein a plug member of the mounting bracket being inserted into the plug receiving member, and a fastening member of the mounting bracket being exposed out of the front panel through the first opening, such that the fastening member and the fixing member are allowed to be attached to each other by a threaded fastener, thereby making the expansion card module be positioned on the base plate steadily.
