Abstract:
1. A board fixing device wherein, when a printed circuit board is inserted into a connector fixed to a motherboard wherefrom a printed circuit board is detachable, said connector having spring contacts forming a contact point row in a direction perpendicular to the insertion direction of a board, said printed circuit board is rotated in a direction whereby the said spring contacts are pressed, while one end of said printed circuit board is put into contact with the spring contacts, and the other end of the said printed circuit board is locked against the driving force of said spring contacts, thereby fixing the printed circuit board; comprising a base portion extending along an edge portion of the said other end of the printed circuit board; protruding portions provided in the vicinity of both ends of the base portion, preventing said printed circuit board from being lifted up when the printed circuit board is fixed, by covering the vicinity of both end portions of an edge portion of the printed circuit board; and a stabilizing piece being formed in a perpendicular direction from said base portion, and fitting into a notched portion formed in the edge portion of the said other end of the printed circuit board when the printed circuit board is fixed.
