ABSTRACT:
A board connecting structure for connecting an auxiliary circuit board to a main circuit board via a connector inside a case is described. A plate is connected to the auxiliary circuit board and a latch is hinge-coupled to the plate. The latch has a prong that fits into a groove formed in the case. One or more slight bumps and corresponding dimples are formed at surfaces of the plate and the latch. The clicks into place in the dimple, as the latch is rotated. At the same time, the prongs of the latch moves into the grove in the case so that the auxiliary circuit board is held in place. The auxiliary circuit board is easily installed into and removed from the connector.
