ABSTRACT:
A card edge connector assembly includes an elongated housing having opposite ends with card injection and ejection levers thereat, and a card receiving slot between the ends. A printed circuit card has an edge insertable into the slot. The edge of the card is provided with a notch for embracing a partition spanning the slot of the housing to locate the card longitudinally of the housing. The partition of the housing and the notch in the card edge are complementarily offset from a mid-point of the slot to provide polarization between the card and the housing. Each insertion and ejection lever includes a plurality of spaced projections for interengagement with a plurality of recesses in an adjacent side edge of the printed circuit card. The projections move seriatim into and out of the recesses in response to pivoting of the lever to thereby insert and eject the card to and from the slot in response to pivoting the lever between the latched position and the eject position.
