Abstract
An electrical card connector, in which a shielding member introduced therein has a tab using for abutting against a top of a guide rod so as to limit an upward displacement of the guide rod. This configuration can prevent the guide rod from shaking up and down. The guide rod is thus securely fixed. On the other hand, the guide rod further includes a guide groove slideably mated with a corresponding guide rib of an insulating housing, which make the slider slide reliably in a front-to-back direction. Moreover, the slider further includes a spring switching for abutting against and fixing an inserted electrical card. Thereby, the electrical cards can be engaged in the receiving cavity reliably.
Claims7
An electrical card connector, comprising:
- an insulating housing comprising a receiving cavity, wherein the insulating housing comprises a guide rib;
- a plurality of conductive terminals retained in the insulating housing;
- an ejector comprising a slider, a spring, and a guide rod, the slider slideably mating with the insulating housing along a front-to-back direction, wherein the slider has a slide groove therein, a guide groove in a bottom portion thereof, and a push button extending from an inner side thereof into the receiving cavity, the guide groove slideably engages with the guide rib, the spring is introduced between the insulating housing and the slider, the guide rod is fixed to the insulating housing, and one end of the guide rod is movably mated with the slide groove;
- a spring switching fixed to the slider and extending into the receiving cavity;
- and
- a shielding member mounted on the insulating housing, wherein the shielding member comprises a tab abutting against a top portion of the slider.
The electrical card connector, comprising:
- an insulating housing including a receiving cavity and a guide rib, the insulating housing further including two slots respectively disposed at two sides of the guide rib;
- a plurality of conductive terminals retained in the insulating housing;
- an ejector including a slider, a spring, and a guide rod, the slider slideably mating with the insulating housing along a front-to-back direction, the slider having a slide groove therein and a guide groove in a bottom portion thereof, the guide groove being slideably engaged with the guide rib, the spring being introduced between the insulating housing and the slider, the guide rod being fixed to the insulating housing, and one end of the guide rod being movably mated with the slide groove, the slider further including two protruding blocks disposed at both sides of the guide groove, and the protruding blocks being respectively slideably mating with the slots;
- a spring switching fixed to the slider and extending into the receiving cavity;
- and
- a shielding member mounted on the insulating housing, wherein the shielding member comprises a tab abutting against a top portion of the slider.
