ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a memory card reader which has a eject button; an electrical switch which senses when the eject button is in an inactive rest position. When a memory card is inserted through an aperture in the front bezel it sits at a depth to ensure the rear face of the memory card is at least flush with the bezel surface. The memory card acts on a second electrical switch contact to indicate when it is fully seated. Sensing the state of both switches allows the condition of a) the card being fully seated and b) that there is no card movement, to be detected. To eject the memory card the user must use the eject button which acts on an eject lever to push the card outwards through the aperture in the front bezel. The present invention also relates to a method for safely reading from and writing to a memory card reader device.
