Abstract
Simple screwfree locating structure for computer interface card and shield plate of interface card socket, including: a base board fixedly mounted on a computer housing corresponding to the computer interface card socket, the base board being formed with at least one slide tunnel; at least one slide rod correspondingly slidably disposed in the slide tunnel of the base board; and at least one latch board correspondingly connected with bottom end of the slide rod. A locating pin downward projects from the bottom of the latch board. When the slide rod is slided toward the interface card socket, the locating pin of the latch board is driven and correspondingly inserted and latched in a fixing hole of an insertion plate and a retaining board of top end of the interface card socket. Accordingly, the insertion plate can be tightly fixed on inner side of the interface card socket.
