Abstract
A positioning fastener includes a base having a seat plate extended therefrom, a fixing portion disposed below the base for fastening to an electronic substrate, and an elastic positioning structure disposed above the base and including an urging plate, a pressing plate connected to the urging plate, a positioning space defined therein and a positioning member disposed at a bottom side thereof. The urging plate and the pressing plate are squeezed backwards and elastically deformed by a circuit board that is rotated downward so that the circuit board passes the urging plate and moves into the positioning space of the elastic positioning structure and a suspended board edge of the circuit board is secured in position by the positioning member. The pressing plate can be pressed by an external force to lift the urging plate, allowing the circuit board to be rotated in direction away from the positioning member.
