Abstract
A SIM card socket and method for manufacturing the same. The SIM card socket includes a base, a first engaging member, and a second engaging member. The base includes a first side and a second side opposite thereto. The first engaging member is fixed on the first side of the base. The second engaging member is disposed on the second side of the base in an elastically deformable manner. The manufacturing method includes the following steps. A conductive base with a plurality of protrusions is provided. An isolating member is formed on the conductive base, and the protrusions are partially covered by the isolating member. The protrusions are cut so as to not connect with each other.

A subscriber identification module card socket for holding a subscriber identification module card, comprising:
- a base including a first side and a second side opposite to the first side;
- a first engaging member fixed on the first side of the base;
- a second engaging member disposed on the second side of the base in an elastically deformable manner;
- and
- a first elastic member, disposed on the base, lifting the subscriber identification module card up.
An electronic device comprising:
- a body including a connector;
- a subscriber identification module card socket disposed on the body;
- and
- a subscriber identification module card disposed in the subscriber identification module card socket in a manner such that the subscriber identification module card is coupled to the connector;
- wherein the subscriber identification module card socket includes:
- a base including a hollow portion, a first side, and a second side opposite to the first side, wherein the connector is located in the hollow portion and connected to the SIM subscriber identification module card;
- a first engaging member, fixed on the first side of the base, holding the subscriber identification module card;
- a second engaging member, disposed on the second side of the base in an elastically deformable manner, for further holding the subscriber identification module card, wherein the second engaging member is deformable such that the subscriber identification module card is easily disposed into or removed from the subscriber identification module card socket;
- and
- an elastic member, integrally formed on the base, lifting the subscriber identification module card up.
