Description of the Invention: [Technical Field to Which the Invention Is Applicable] [0001] The present invention relates to a connector combination. [Prior Art 3 _2] Usually, several PCI-E (Peripherai c〇mp〇n-Ο [0003] ent Interconnect Express, extended peripheral device ports) slots are installed on the motherboard, such as PCI-E xl, PCI- E x4, PCI~E χ8 and pci-E xl6 slots are used to interface with corresponding PCI-E cards to meet the expansion needs of users. However, if the facilitator wants to put a longer pci card, such as a PCI-E xl6 card, into a shorter generation of a space on the motherboard, the slot, such as a PCI-E x8 slot, can be inserted.捿 function, but because the PCI-E card is long' its fixed instability, and the golden finger on the PCI__E card is exposed in the PC IE slot, it is vulnerable to damage. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a connector combination that can be applied to a fixed longer expansion card. 0004 [0004] A connector assembly comprising an expansion card connector having a slot extending through the end of the expansion card connection 11, the connector combination also being for the expansion card connector A fixing member at the end, the fixing member is provided with a receiving groove communicating with the _ of the expansion card connector. [0005] Compared with the prior art, the upper connector assembly can fix the expansion card with a length longer than the expansion card connector by providing a fixing member having a receiving slot at the connection end of the expansion card, and protecting the expansion card. . Expansion Card [Embodiment] [0006] 099103728 =: The preferred embodiment of the connection with FIG. 2? The third page/total 12 pages 0992007001-0 201128874 includes a PCI-E connector ι and one can be installed The solid element 20 of the pci_E connector ι〇. In the present embodiment, the pci_E connector 1 is a mu x8 connector. [0008] [0009] The PCI-E connector 1 is electrically connected to a motherboard 3A. The π-E connector 10 is elongated and includes a top portion 12 and an end portion 13 that is perpendicular to the top portion 12. The top portion 12 defines a slot 125 extending through the end portion 13 in the longitudinal direction for latching a bottom of a corresponding PCI_E+ (in this embodiment, a PCI-E x8 card) and corresponding to the PCI_E. The gold finger of the card is electrically connected. The end portion 13 is respectively provided with a bottom-closed hook 13 on both sides of the slot 125. Each of the hooks 3 3 includes an L-shaped hook portion 134 extending toward the opposite hook 133. The fixing member 20 includes a receiving portion 21 and an elongated fixing piece 24 extending in the longitudinal direction from the bottom of the one end portion 211 of the receiving portion 21. A receiving groove 213 is defined in the top of the receiving portion 21. One end of the receiving groove 213 passes through the end portion 211 of the receiving portion 21. A latching portion 216 is protruded outwardly from the two sides of the end portion 211 of the accommodating portion 21, respectively. Referring to FIG. 3 'when the connector assembly 1 is assembled, the fixing member 2 is placed above the PC Ι-E connector 10, so that the two fastening portions 216 of the fixing member 20 are aligned with the PCI-E connection. The two hooks 133 of the device 10 are fixed to the slots 125 of the PCI-E connector 10. Pressing the fixing member 20 downwards, the two fastening portions 216 of the fixing member 20 are respectively engaged in the hooking portions 134 of the two hooks 133 of the PCI-E connector 10 and abutting the bottoms of the two hooks 133 The fixing piece 24 of the fixing member 20 is received in the slot 125 of the PCI-E connector 10 and abuts against the bottom of the slot 125. Therefore, the fixing member 20 is fixed to the PCI-E connector 10, the receiving groove 213 of the fixing member 20 099103728 Form No. A0101 Page 4 / Total 12 Page 0992007001-0 201128874 [0011] ο [0012] Ο [0014] communicating with the slot 25 of the PCI-E connector. In use, if a PCI_E+ (in the present embodiment, a pCI_E card) corresponding to the PCI-E connector 1〇 or a PCI_E card having a length shorter than the pci-E connector 1 is to be used (eg, pci_E xl*pc Ε χ 4 card) When the connector combination 1 is inserted, the pc Ε card to be inserted can be directly inserted into the PCI-E connector 1 。. Please refer to FIG. 4 together, if a ΡΠ-Ε card 40 (such as a PCI-E xl6 card) having a length longer than the PCI_E connector is inserted into the connector combination! When the 'gold finger 45 of the PCI-E card 40 is inserted into the connector 组合E connector 10} and the slot 125 and the receiving slot 213 at the top of the fixing member 2, and the PCI-E card is The bottom of the gold finger 45 of 40 is pressed downward against the fixing piece 24 of the fixing member 2, so that the fixing member 2 is not easily picked up. Therefore, the PCI-E card 40 is fixed to the connector assembly 1. The gold finger 45 of the pCI_E + 4 is received by the slot 125 of the PCI-E connector 1 and the receiving slot 213 of the fixing member 2 Therefore, it is not easily damaged by collision or short circuit. In other embodiments, the fixing piece 24 of the fixing member 2 can be omitted, and the fixing member 20 can be directly fixed to the end portion i 3 of the pCI_E connector 1A. In other embodiments, the PC Ι-E connector 10 of the connector assembly 1 can be replaced with a PCI connector or other expansion card connector. In summary, the present invention has indeed met the requirements of the invention patent, and the patent application is filed according to law. However, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it is not possible to limit the scope of the patent application of the present invention.
