ABSTRACT:
A card-ejection mechanism and a card connector has a low profile for use with a memory card which can be manufactured by stamping from a thin metal sheet with subsequent forming. The card connector 10 includes a connector housing 20 and a card-ejection mechanism 30. The card-ejection mechanism comprises a fixed frame 40 and movable ejection parts 50. The frame 40 has two opposed guiding rails 42, 44 of a U-shaped cross section and an integral flat connecting plate 46 joining together guiding rails 42, 44. Approximately in the center of plate 46, a nearly square opening 46a is located. An ejecting blade 60 and an arm bar 70 are placed on opposite surfaces of this plate 46, and one end of the arm bar is joined by a pivoting rivet connection to the ejecting blade through the opening 46a; the other end of the arm bar 70 is linked to a push bar 80 attached to a side surface of the guiding rail 42. The mechanism is operated by pushing the push bar to partly eject the memory card therefrom.
