Circuit card insertion and removal system

A system for removably connecting a circuit card to a connector of an electronic device, comprising a support structure for loading said circuit card into said electronic device, said circuit card being supported by said support structure and displaceable relative thereto, said support structure being adapted to be slidably inserted along a first axis within the electronic device to a first position, and an actuator mounted to said support structure for selectively displacing the circuit card relative to the support structure along a second axis from said first position to a connection position of the circuit card where a connection portion of the circuit card is operatively coupled to the connector of the electronic device, and from said connection position to a disconnection position wherein the connection portion of the circuit card is disengaged from the connector of said electronic device, wherein said support structure includes a sliding member and an intermediate member, said intermediate member mounted between to said sliding member and said card, said intermediate member being movable relative to said sliding member, the circuit card being mounted to said intermediate member for conjoint movement therewith in response to the activation of said actuator.
