1. A ceiling fan positioning structure for shielding a hanging portion of a ceiling fan, comprising:

  • a fixing frame, wherein the hanging portion is fixed by the fixing frame, and the fixing frame has a plurality of convex posts disposed on an external portion thereof;

    a decoration casing for shielding the fixing frame and the hanging portion; and

    a plurality of retaining mechanisms fixed on an inner wall of the decoration casing, wherein each retaining mechanism has a base seat and an elastic plate, the base seat has a channel and a chamber for receiving the elastic plate, and the elastic plate has a pressing arm bent on an end thereof;

    whereby the decoration casing covers the fixing frame, each convex post is received in the channel of each base seat;

    when the decoration casing is rotated, each convex post is moved towards each elastic plate and into each chamber, and each convex post touches each elastic plate in order to change the shape of each elastic plate;

    when each convex post is moved to touch each pressing arm and an inner wall of the chamber, the position of each convex post is limited between each pressing arm and the inner wall of each chamber by the elastic force of each pressing arm.
