Abstract
A card connector comprises an insulating housing defining a card receiving space for accommodating two kinds of different cards in size; a plurality of contacts retained in the housing, and comprising a plurality of different contacting portions for electrically connecting with the different cards respectively; and at least a anti-misinsertion appliance disposed in the housing, and comprising a shutter member and an actuator member for controlling the shutter member to open and close so that the different cards are led into the correct contacting areas.
Claims13
A card connector, comprising:
- an insulating housing defining a card receiving space which defines a first card cavity and a second card cavity along a vertical direction for accommodating two kinds of different cards in size, respectively;
- a plurality of contacts retained in the housing, and exposed in the card receiving space for electrically connecting with the corresponding different cards respectively, and
- an anti-misinsertion appliance disposed in the housing, and comprising a shutter member and an actuator member for controlling the shutter member to open and close and a connecting member connecting the actuator member detachably and the shutter member, the shutter member and an actuator member being protruding into the second card cavity.
A card connector, comprising:
- an insulating housing defining a card receiving space for accommodating two kinds of different cards in size;
- a plurality of contacts retained in the housing, each contact provided with a first and a second contacting portion exposed in the card receiving space and a soldering portion extending out of the housing, the first contacting portions together defining a first contacting area and the second contacting portions together defining a second contacting area, accordingly, the two contacting area spaced along a card insertion direction for electrically connecting with the different cards;
- and
- an anti-misinsertion appliance disposed in the housing, and comprising a shutter member and an actuator member for controlling the shutter member to open and close so that the different cards are led into the correct contacting areas.

- and
- an anti-misinsertion appliance disposed in the housing, and comprising a shutter member, which protrudes into the second card cavity and communicates with the first card cavity, and an actuator member, which is used to block or unblock the shutter member, for controlling the shutter member to open and close;
- wherein
- both said shutter member and said actuator member are rotatable about corresponding axes extending along a vertical direction which are perpendicular to an insertion direction of the corresponding card.
