ABSTRACT:
A card edge connector (10) includes an insulative housing (12) having a central lengthwise slot (14) for receiving a module (100) therein and a plurality of passageways (16) disposed by two sides of the slot (14) for receiving a corresponding number of contacts therein for mechanical and electrical engagement with the circuit pads printed on the bottom edge region of the module (100). A pair of guidable retention bars (18) integrally extend upward adjacent either end of the housing (12) wherein each guidable retention bar (18) includes a retention block (20) at the top. A rotatable ejector (40) is positioned at the outermost end beside the corresponding pair of guidance bars (18), and includes on the interior surface a guiding surface (32) which generally comprises three sections (34, 36, 38) wherein a first section (34) has an arch configuration with regard to the center of the spindle (41) of the ejector (40), the second section (36) has a straight line configuration which is substantially vertical to the housing (12) when the ejector (40) is in a closed state, and a third section (38) has an oblique or diverged configuration with regard to the second section (36), whereby the module (100) can be guidably loaded into the housing (12) in both lateral and lengthwise directions regardless of whether such ejector (40) is in a closed or open state.
