ABSTRACT:
A card connector is provided wherein a memory card or other such card housed in the connector can be prevented from falling out of the connector when the card is ejected, and wherein the card can be taken out of the connector with ease. The card connector is such that one side (12) of a housing (10) that houses a card (80) is provided with an ejector mechanism (50) having a cam member (30) that pushes out and ejects the card (80) from the housing. The other side (13) of the housing (10) is provided with a resilient member (60) that engages with a straight lateral edge (81) of the card (80) ejected by the cam member (30), and that restricts the movement of the card (80) in the ejection direction.
