Abstract
A card edge connector includes a connector including a target engagement part, a substrate that can be inserted into and removed from the connector, a fixing part fixed to the substrate, and a lock that secures the substrate to the connector. The lock includes a shaft fixed to the fixing part and configured to slide in the direction of insertion and removal of the substrate and rotate around an axis, an urging part that exerts force on the shaft and biasing the shaft toward the direction of the substrate, and an engagement part provided on the shaft, configured to engage the target engagement part.

A card edge connector comprising:
- a connector including a target engagement part;
- a substrate that can be inserted into and removed from the connector;
- a fixing part fixed to the substrate;
- and
- a lock that secures the substrate to the connector, the lock includes
- a shaft fixed to the fixing part and configured to slide in the direction of insertion and removal of the substrate and rotate around an axis;
- an urging part that exerts force on the shaft and biasing the shaft toward the direction of the substrate;
- and
- an engagement part provided on the shaft, configured to engage the target engagement part.
A card type module for being inserted into and removed from a connector, the card type module comprising:
- a substrate;
- a fixing part fixed to the substrate;
- a shaft rotatably fixed to the fixing part, configured to slide in a direction of insertion and removal of the card type module;
- an urging part that exerts force on the shaft in a direction of removal of the card type module;
- and
- an engagement part provided on the shaft;
- wherein the engagement part is configured to engage to a portion of the connector by a rotation of the shaft.
A connector to which a substrate is insertable, the connector comprising:
- a target engagement part configured to engage an engagement part of the substrate;
- wherein the engagement part is configured to slide a direction in which the substrate is inserted, and rotate around an axis of an insertion/removal direction.
