ABSTRACT:
An IC card connector having a detecting switch for detecting correct installation of the IC card is provided.
The actuator of the detecting switch is provided with a projected tongue piece obliquely protruding toward the card insertion section, in a manner such that the projected tongue piece is adapted to be driven in the IC card's thickness direction by the IC card just before the completion of its insertion. Therefore, an elastic force of the actuator (this force will exert on the IC card which has been inserted in its loading position) may be made generally orthogonal to the IC card's discharge direction. In this way, with the passing of time even if there occurs a deterioration in the clamping force of the connector for clamping the IC card, the IC card will not be pushed by the detecting switch in its discharge direction. Thus it is possible to avoid a position deviation of the IC card when in its inserted position.
