ABSTRACT:
A card connector has: a connector housing which is formed therein so as to be enclosed on three sides by an opposed pair of first and second frames and a third frame that links the end portions of the first and second frames; and an open-close cover. The open-close cover has a sensing member that senses the installation status of the card, and a cover locking mechanism that latches onto either the first or the second frame and locks the open-close cover in the closed state. The rear of the open-close cover is rotatably pivoted on the first and second frames. The card's installation status is sensed by closing the open-close cover and positioning the sensing member at the rear end portion of the card; and the open-close cover is retracted, being thereby locked in the closed state via the cover locking mechanism.
