Patent ID: 7628654

Claim:
A card edge connector adapted to receive an electronic substrate, the electronic substrate including a plurality of terminals disposed on an end portion of the electronic substrate, the plurality of terminals including a first terminal and a second terminal disposed on a first surface of the electronic substrate, the first terminal located in front of the second terminal in an insertion direction that the end portion of the electronic substrate is inserted into the card edge connector, the card edge connector comprising: a housing having an insertion hole for receiving the end portion of the electronic substrate therein; a first conductive part disposed in the insertion hole, the first conductive part configured to come in contact with the first terminal when the electronic substrate is received by the housing, the first conductive part located at a first distance from the first surface of the electronic substrate in a direction approximately vertical to the planer direction of the electronic substrate when the electronic substrate is received by the housing; a second conductive part disposed in the insertion hole, the second conductive part configured to come in contact with the second terminal when the electronic substrate is received by the housing; a first supporting conductive part disposed in the housing, the first supporting conductive part located at a second distance from the first surface of the electronic substrate in the direction approximately vertical to the planer direction of the electronic substrate when the end portion of the electronic substrate is received by the housing, wherein the second distance is larger than the first distance; a first connecting element coupling the second conductive part and the first supporting conductive part; a first harness coupled with the first conductive part and protruding to an outside of the housing; and a second harness coupled with the first supporting conductive part and protruding to an outside of the housing.
