Abstract
A card connector, a card holder, and a terminal device, where the card connector includes a plurality of first terminals and one or more second terminals. The first terminals are arranged to form a first card access area that installs a first card, and the first terminals are configured to be electrically coupled to the first card. The one or more second terminals are distributed on a periphery of the first card access area, the first terminals and the one or more second terminals form a second card access area that installs a second card, and the first terminals and the one or more second terminals are configured to be electrically coupled to the second card.
Claims20
A card connector comprising:
- a plurality of first terminals arranged to form a first card access area that is configured to install a first card, wherein the first terminals are configured to be electrically coupled to the first card;
- one or more second terminals distributed on a periphery of the first card access area, wherein each of the one or more second terminals comprises a connection end, wherein the first terminals and the one or more second terminals form a second card access area that is configured to install a second card, and wherein the first terminals and the one or more second terminals are configured to be electrically coupled to the second card;
- and
- an insulation body, wherein each of the first terminals comprises:
- a fixed end coupled to the insulation body;
- and
- an elastic end protruding relative to a surface of the insulation body and configured to abut against the first card or the second card,
- wherein the fixed end is located on a front side of the elastic end or a rear side of the elastic end in a first direction,
- wherein the one or more second terminals are located on a front side of the first card access area or a rear side of the first card access area in the first direction, and
- wherein the first direction is perpendicular to an insertion direction of the first card or the second card.
