## Abstract

A fixing frame which is for clamping an article includes a frame body, a lace and a rotatable fastening device. The frame body is detachably positioned on at least two sides of the article and released or retracted between a securing position and a releasing position. The article is allowed to be released when the frame body is at the releasing position, and the article is firmly connected to the frame body when the frame body is at the securing position. The lace is limitedly threaded on the frame body. The rotatable fastening device is coupled to the lace. The frame body is retracted from the releasing position to the securing position by rotating the rotatable fastening device along a fastening direction, and the frame body is released from the securing position to the releasing position by rotating the rotatable fastening device to loosen the lace.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A fixing frame which is for clamping an article, comprising:
a frame body detachably positioned on at least two sides of the article, the frame body being released or retracted between a securing position and a releasing position, the article being allowed to be released when the frame body being at the releasing position, the article being firmly connected to the frame body when the frame body being at the securing position;
a lace limitedly threaded on the frame body; and
a rotatable fastening device coupled to the lace;
wherein the frame body is retracted from the releasing position to the securing position by rotating the rotatable fastening device along a fastening direction, and the frame body is released from the securing position to the releasing position by rotating the rotatable fastening device to loosen the lace.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The fixing frame of claim 1, wherein the lace is detachably coupled to the rotatable fastening device.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The fixing frame of claim 1, wherein the lace is incrementally released or fully released by rotating the rotatable fastening device along a loosening direction.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The fixing direction of claim 1, wherein the rotatable fastening device comprises:
a releasing mechanism;
wherein the lace is incrementally released or fully released by operating the releasing mechanism.

### Claim 5

A fixing frame which is for clamping an article, comprising:
a frame body detachably positioned on at least two sides of the article, comprising:
a clasping member slidably positioned on the frame body, the clasping member being movable between a securing position and a releasing position, the article being allowed to be released when the clasping member being at the releasing position, the article being firmly connected to the frame body when the clasping member being at the securing position;
a lace limitedly threaded between the frame body and the clasping member; and
a rotatable fastening device coupled to the lace;
wherein the clasping member is moved from the releasing position to the securing position by rotating the rotatable fastening device along a fastening direction.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The fixing frame of claim 5, wherein the frame body further comprises:
a rail positioned at the frame body, the rail being corresponding to the clasping member to allow the clasping member to dispose on the rail.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The fixing frame of claim 5, wherein the frame body further comprises:
a plurality of through holes provided for the lace to pass through the frame body;
wherein the clasping member comprises a guiding passage for the lace to pass through the clasping member.

### Claim 8 (depends on 5)

The fixing frame of claim 5, wherein the lace is detachably coupled to the rotatable fastening device.

### Claim 9 (depends on 5)

The fixing frame of claim 5, wherein the lace is incrementally released or fully released by rotating the rotatable fastening device along a loosening direction.

### Claim 10 (depends on 5)

The fixing direction of claim 5, wherein the rotatable fastening device comprises:
a releasing mechanism;
wherein the face is released by operating the releasing mechanism.
