ABSTRACT:
Cards are enabled to be removed from a card edge connector having an ejecting mechanism, even in cases that fingers, jigs, and the like are unable to access an ejector thereof. The card edge connector is constituted by: an insulative housing having a slot; electrical contacts, provided in the slot, for electrically contacting conductive pads of a card, which is inserted into the slot; and the ejector, mounted only at one end of the insulative housing in its longitudinal direction, for ejecting the card. The card edge connector is constructed such that when a second edge of the card, opposite from a first edge at which an engaging protrusion is provided, is pulled in a direction substantially opposite the insertion direction of the card, the card rotates about the first edge, while the engaging protrusion urges a stopper to rotate the ejector, thereby disengaging the stopper from the engaging protrusion.
