Modular flash memory card expansion system

A memory card system;

• a printed circuit board;
• a plurality of memory cards;
• a module for holding the plurality of memory cards, the module comprising a plurality of supports, the supports including rails to guide the at least one memory card in place, and a latch system for securing the at least one memory card to the module;
• and
• wherein the latch system comprises a plurality of latches and a plurality of knobs for controlling the latches;
• a plurality of layers of pins, and
• a controller coupled to the module, wherein the module electronically connects the plurality of layers of pins to the controller and the controller communicates through a cable to the printed circuit board.

A flash memory card system;

• a printed circuit board;
• a plurality of flash memory cards;
• a module for holding the plurality of flash memory cards, the module comprising a plurality of supports, the supports including rails to guide the at least one memory card in place, and a latch system for securing the at least one memory card to the module;
• and
• wherein the latch system comprises a plurality of latches and a plurality of knobs for controlling the latches;
• a plurality of layers of pins, wherein when the plurality of latches are in an open position at least one memory card can be removed from the module and when the plurality of latches are in a closed position the at least one memory card is secured to the module;
• wherein each of the pins comprise a first curved portion;
• a second curved portion coupled to the first curved portion and an end portion coupled to the second curved portion, wherein when a flash memory card is inserted below a centerline of the pin, the resulting direction will force the card to move downward and be in contact with the first curved portion and cause the first curved portion to move in an upward direction and wherein when a flash memory card is coupled above a centerline of the pin, the resulting direction will force the card to move upward and be in contact with the second curved portion and cause the second curved portion to move in a downward direction wherein the pin is prevented from bending or being damaged, wherein a greater contact surface area is provided with the flash memory card;
• and
• a controller coupled to the module, wherein the module electronically connects the plurality of layers of pins to the controller and the controller communicates through a cable to the printed circuit board.
