ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a data-processing apparatus comprising a data-processing unit, a connector unit, a pin-protecting member, and lock members. The lock members hold the pin-protecting member in a first position where the pin-protecting member opposes the pins and prevents anything other than the card-shaped recording medium from abutting on the pins and protects the pins from dust. When a card-shaped recording medium is inserted into the apparatus, the lock members release the pin-protecting member from the first position, whereby the pin-protecting member is moved to a second position. In the second position, the pin-protecting member allows an electrical connection between the pins and the connector of the recording medium. When the recording medium is pulled from the apparatus, the pin-protecting member is moved from the second position back to the first position. In the first position, the pin-protecting member prevents anything other than the recording medium from abutting on the pins, thus protecting the pins from damage and also from dust.
