Patent ID: 8657611

Claim:
A card connector adapted for being mounted on a circuit board and receiving an external card, comprising: an insulating housing defining a receiving chamber for receiving the card therein, and a sliding recess adjacent to one side of the receiving chamber; a plurality of terminals disposed in the insulating housing for electrically connecting the card and the circuit board; an ejecting device disposed in the sliding recess of the insulating housing, the ejecting device including a sliding body and a spring restrained between a rear sidewall of the sliding recess and the sliding body, a pushing arm being formed at a rear end of the sliding body and protruding sideward into the receiving chamber, a top face of the sliding body defining a sliding fillister, a bottom sidewall of the sliding fillister protruding upward to form a blocking block spaced from a front sidewall of the sliding fillister and designating a front face thereof as a blocking face; and a cover coupled on the insulating housing, the cover having a top plate of which one side is die-cut to form an elastic slice inclined downward into the sliding fillister and elastically against a top of the blocking block, wherein in the process of the card being inserted into the receiving chamber of the card connector and pushing the sliding body to move rearward via resisting against the pushing arm, the elastic slice of the cover is elastically propped upward by the blocking block and slides forward with respect to the blocking block, when the card is inserted in place, the elastic slice slips off from the blocking block to resist against the blocking face, when the card needs to be withdrawn from the card connector, the elastic slice of the cover is driven upward by an external force to set free the blocking block and the spring so as to push the card out.
