A deformable connection mechanism includes an insert member, a socket member, a first shell and a second shell defining a through hole. The insert member extends form the first shell. The socket member is formed on the second shell. The insert member includes shaft body and an elastic head. The socket member includes a receiving hole communicating with the through hole and an elastic sidewall surrounding the receiving hole. The elastic head and the sidewall are deformable. The insert member is passable through the receiving hole. The elastic head has a size larger than that of the receiving hole.
