ABSTRACT:
An electronic card connector includes an insulative header retaining contact elements therein and a shielding member attached to the header for electrically engaging with an electronic card received in the connector. The shielding member forms a pivot thereon for rotatably supporting a rocking member which is rotated by a manually-operated bar for drivingly engaging with and ejecting the electronic card out of the connector. A retaining tab is formed on the pivot and is shaped to be unsymmetrical about a center of the pivot thereby having a maximum dimension in a first direction. An opening is defined in the rocking member for receiving the retaining tab. The widest portion of the opening substantially corresponds to the maximum dimension of the retaining tab whereby the retaining tab is received in the opening when the maximum dimension is aligned with the widest portion. The maximum dimension of the retaining tab engages with the opening when it is not aligned with the widest portion of the opening thereby retaining the rocking member on the shielding member.
