The fastener includes a positioning unit 1 and a clamping member 2. The positioning unit 1 and the clamping member 2 are preferably to be formed through a high polymer insulating material, for example Nylon, being processed with an injecting molding treatment so as to be provided with an insulating effect.

An insertion hole 11 is axially formed in the positioning unit 1, and the insertion hole 11 is preferably not in a round shape in actual practices; as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, the insertion hole 11 is in a round-and-long-shape, but what shall be addressed is that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned arrangement, other shapes, for example a polygonal shape or an oval shape can also be adopted. A first supporting concave part 12 is radially formed on one surface, for example a top surface, of the positioning unit 1, the first supporting concave part 12 allows a first positioning recess 41 at one end of a first electronic device 4 (as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10) to be disposed, and two sides of the first supporting concave part 12 have a pair of first blocking edges 121 abutting against the first positioning recess 41, thereby providing an anti-rotation effect to the first electronic device 4.

Another surface of the positioning unit 1 has a positioning structure 13 communicating with the insertion hole 11; as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the positioning structure 13 has at least two buckle hooks 131 annularly arranged and protruded from a circumference of the insertion hole 11. The buckle hooks 13 are used for combining, for example for buckling, with a board member 3, for example a board hole 31 (as shown in FIG. 7) of a printed circuit board, so that the positioning unit 1 can be fastened on the board member 3 (as shown in FIG. 8). What shall be addressed is that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned arrangement of the positioning structure 13, any other technical solution enabling the positioning unit 1 to be connected to the board member 3 shall be within the scope of the present invention.

For preventing the positioning unit 1 from rotating in the board hole 31, a rotation preventing protrusion 132 protruding from the circumference of the insertion hole 11 is disposed between every two of the adjacent buckle hooks 131, and a rotation preventing hole 311 communicating with the board hole 31 is formed in the board hole 31 at a location corresponding to the rotation preventing protrusion 132, so that when the buckle hooks 131 are buckled in the board hole 31, the rotation preventing protrusion 132 is received in the rotation preventing hole 311, thereby preventing the positioning unit 1 from rotating in the board hole 31.

The clamping member 2 has a main body 21, a fastening pin 22 inserted in the insertion hole 11 is disposed at a bottom end of the main body 21, a cross section of the fastening pin 22 is formed in a shape which is the same as the insertion hole 11, and a length of the fastening pin 22 is greater than a depth of the insertion hole 11, thus the fastening pin 22 is allowed to protrude into a penetrated slot 133 formed between the buckle hooks 131, and the buckle hooks 131 can be prevented from inwardly retracting and deforming, the buckle hooks 131 are able to be firmly buckled in the board hole 31, thereby enabling the positioning unit 1 to be fastened with the board member 3 and achieving a positioning effect. Accordingly, when a bottom surface of the main body 21 and the first supporting concave part 12 jointly clamp the first positioning recess 41 of the first electronic device 4, the first electronic device 4, for example the M.2 solid state drive, is formed in a locked status.

As a matter of fact, an advantage achieved via installing the rotation preventing protrusion 132 is that when the buckle hooks 131 are inserted in the board hole 31, and the fastening pin 22 is yet inserted in the penetrated slot 133 formed between the insertion hole 11 and the buckle hooks 131, the buckle hooks 131 do not abut against the fastening pin 22 so as to be provided with an inwardly retracting property, and a problem of rotation may cause. As such, when the rotation preventing protrusion 132 is received in the rotation preventing hole 311, the positioning unit 1 is prevented from rotating in the board hole 31, meanwhile the first supporting concave part 12 can be oriented towards a first connector 32 of the board member 3, thereby providing effects of positioning and anti-error installing.

Moreover, an anti-loosening structure is correspondingly disposed adjacent circumferences of the fastening pin 22 and the insertion hole 11, the anti-loosening structure has at least one anti-loosening buckle slot 211 formed at an outer circumference of the fastening pin 22, and an anti-loosening buckle ring 134 disposed at an inner circumference of the insertion hole 11.
