Patent ID: 7160131

Claim:
A SIM (subscriber identification module) card holder, comprising: a base defining a receiving groove and a slot, the receiving groove being configured for receiving a SIM card therein, the base comprising a protrusion, the protrusion and the slot being arranged at two opposite sides of the receiving groove; and a catching mechanism comprising a main board having a bending piece and a bending hem at two opposite ends thereof, the bending hem being engaged in the slot, the bending piece being engagable with the base so as to lock the SIM card in the receiving groove, the main board comprising an elastic slice resisting the protrusion when the bending piece is engaged with the base, the catching mechanism being slidable in a first direction facilitating an engagement of both of the bending hem in the slot and the bending piece with the base, the catching mechanism further being slidable in a second opposite direction facilitating a corresponding disengagement of both of the bending hem and the bending piece, wherein the catching mechanism is configured such that, when the slice is pulled to move away from the protrusion, the catching mechanism slides relative to the base to make the catching mechanism rotatable in a manner such that the catching mechanism can be rendered removable from the base.
