EXPANSION CARD POSITIONING MECHANISM AND SERVER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18128171 titled 'EXPANSION CARD POSITIONING MECHANISM AND SERVER
The abstract describes an expansion card positioning mechanism that is placed on a plate member. It consists of a movable member with a base portion and first teeth portion, and a positioning member with a plate portion, positioning recess portion, and second teeth portion. The base portion slides on the plate member, while the plate portion rotates on the base portion. The first and second teeth portions mesh together, causing the plate portion to rotate relative to the base portion.
- The expansion card positioning mechanism includes a movable member and a positioning member.
- The movable member has a base portion and first teeth portion, while the positioning member has a plate portion, positioning recess portion, and second teeth portion.
- The base portion of the movable member slides on the plate member, and the plate portion of the positioning member rotates on the base portion.
- The first and second teeth portions mesh together, causing the plate portion to rotate relative to the base portion.

Original Abstract Submitted
An expansion card positioning mechanism is configured to be disposed on a plate member. The expansion card positioning mechanism includes a movable member and a positioning member. The movable member includes a base portion and a first teeth portion. The base portion is configured to be slidably disposed on the plate member, and the first teeth portion is disposed on the base portion. The positioning member includes a plate portion, a positioning recess portion and a second teeth portion. The plate portion is rotatably disposed on a side of the base portion. The positioning recess portion and the second teeth portion are disposed on the plate portion. The second teeth portion meshes with the first teeth portion, so that the base portion forces the plate portion to rotate relative to the base portion via the first teeth portion and the second teeth portion meshing with each other.
