2. The holding component according to claim 1 , wherein the slot bracket has a retaining bracket for fixing the holding component on a support component.

3. The holding component according to claim 1 , wherein the holding component comprises a first centering means by means of which the holding component can be centered on a support component.

4. The holding component according to claim 1 , wherein the holding component is adapted to receive an expansion component according to the PCI standard.

5. A support component for receiving at least one holding component with a riser card for receiving an expansion component for a computer system, wherein the riser card comprises a first mating plug connector on a first side of a bottom plate of the holding component and a first plug connector on a second side of the bottom plate opposite the first side, wherein the holding component is adapted to receive the expansion component by establishing a plug connection of a second plug connector of the expansion component and the first mating plug connector on the holding component, wherein the holding component comprises a slot bracket which is adapted to receive a slot angle of the expansion component, and

wherein the support component comprises a fastening point for removably and pivotably receiving the support component on a chassis of a server module and a base face with at least one opening;

wherein the support component is adapted such that the holding component can be arranged in a form-fit manner on the support component so that the riser card of the holding component protrudes through the opening when the holding component is arranged on the support component.

6. The support component according to claim 5 , wherein the support component comprises a second centering means for interaction with a first centering means of the holding component in order to center the holding component on the support component.

7. The support component according to claim 5 , having a faceplate with at least one recess for a slot bracket of the holding component, wherein the faceplate is configured such that a retaining bracket of the slot bracket can be fixed to the faceplate.

8. The support component according to claim 5 , wherein the support component comprises a backplane connection for connecting further signal lines of the expansion component to the server module.

9. The support component according to claim 5 , comprising a securing device for securing the at least one holding component in at least one spatial direction, when the at least one holding component is fixed to the support component.

10. The support component according to claim 6 , comprising a securing device for securing the at least one holding component in at least one spatial direction, when the at least one holding component is fixed to the support component.

11. An assembly, comprising:

a holding component with a riser card for receiving an expansion component for a computer system, wherein the riser card comprises a first mating plug connector on a first side of a bottom plate of the holding component and a first plug connector on a second side of the bottom plate opposite the first side, wherein the holding component is adapted to receive the expansion component by establishing a plug connection of a second plug connector of the expansion component and the first mating plug connector on the holding component, wherein the holding component comprises a slot bracket which is adapted to receive a slot angle of the expansion component;

a support component for receiving the holding component, wherein the support component comprises a fastening point for removably and pivotably receiving the support component on a chassis of a server module and a base face with at least one opening;

wherein the support component is adapted such that the holding component can be arranged in a form-fit manner on the support component so that the riser card of the holding component protrudes through the opening when the holding component is arranged on the support component;

the chassis of the server module with a printed circuit board having at least one second mating plug connector; and

the expansion component with the second plug connector;

wherein the second plug connector of the expansion component is plugged into the first mating plug connector on the holding component and thus the expansion component is fixed on the holding component, and wherein the holding component is arranged on the support component in a form-fit manner so that the riser card of the holding component protrudes through the opening, and wherein the expansion component can be electrically contacted to the at least one second mating plug connector of the printed circuit board by means of the riser card of the holding component by pivoting the support component around the fastening point in the direction of the printed circuit board.

12. The assembly according to claim 11 , wherein the support component can be connected to the server module in a form-fit manner by inserting the server module into a server or placing a cover onto the support component.
