ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an IC card connector in which the amount the IC card is discharged can be increased even if the operating force applied to the push rod is reduced. A first support shaft 15 and a second support shaft 16 protrude from a pin housing 10 which is provided with a large number of pin contacts, and an eject lever 13 is rotatably supported by the first support shaft 15. A push rod 12 is supported so as to be capable of reciprocating by a frame 11 which is formed into an integral unit with the pin housing 10, and the forward end of the push rod 12 is engaged with the eject lever 13. A drive lever 14 having a claw portion 14b for pushing out the IC card 1 is rotatably supported by the second support shaft 16. Formed on this drive lever 14 are a first engagement member 14c which is farther from the second support shaft 16 and a second engagement member 14d which is nearer to the second support shaft 16, these engagement portions 14c and 14d protruding into joint holes 13c and 13d formed in the eject lever 13. When the eject lever 13 rotates upon the depressing of the push rod 12, power is transmitted to the drive lever 14 through the first engagement member 14c in the initial stage of the rotation, and, halfway through the rotation, the power transmitting section for rotating the lever 14 is changed from the first engagement member 14c to the second engagement member 14d.
