ABSTRACT:
The invention is a locking device for locking circuit cards in zero-insertion force card edge connectors of the type having a vertically moving upper housing. More particularly, the locking device includes two pairs of pivotally mounted arms which are cammed inwardly from each side of the card. The upper nose-shaped ends of the arms enter holes in the card so that the card cannot be removed without actuating the camming mechanism.
