Card ejecting mechanism for an electronic card connector

An electronic card connector for receiving an electronic card therein, comprising:

• a body portion including a pair of guiding arms and a head section located between the guiding arms, one of the guiding arms defining a guiding channel and having a contacting portion thereabouts;
• a plurality of terminals retained in the head section for electrically connecting with the inserted electronic card;
• and
• an ejecting mechanism including a push rod received in the guiding channel of the guiding arm and moveable along a front-to-back direction for insertion or ejection of the card, the push rod having a tab abutting against the contacting portion of the guiding arm during the movement of the push rod;
• wherein
• at least one of said contacting portion and tab is resilient, and is under tension when said push rod is in a moving status, while is under relaxation when said push rod is in either an innermost position or an outermost position so as to allow the user to feel difference manually.
