Card connector and electronic apparatus

A card connector comprising:

• a housing configured to receive a card;
• a sliding member configured to slide together with the card in a range including a first position, a second position and a third position, the sliding member being locked to the housing at the first position, the sliding member is unlocked from the housing at the second position, the card being removable at the third position;
• a rotary member, rotatably supported by the sliding member, configured to press the card in a card ejection direction;
• a lock mechanism configured to lock the sliding member in the first position to the housing and unlock the sliding member from the housing by sliding of the sliding member from the first position to the second position;
• a first biasing member configured to bias the sliding member in the card ejection direction;
• and
• a second biasing member configured to bias the rotary member in the card ejection direction,
• wherein the sliding member includes an ejection restricting stopper configured to abut against the rotary member when the sliding member is in the third position.
