  • Patent number: 7326070
    Abstract: A memory card connector has an insulative frame receiving conductive terminals therein, a slide guiding mechanism assembled on the insulative frame, and a shell. The slide guiding mechanism includes a sliding bar, a guiding bar, and a resilient element. The sliding bar defines a guiding groove. A link portion is formed on an end of the sliding bar. A driving member is arranged at an end of the sliding bar and opposite the link portion, and has a pushing portion and a drawing portion. A driven member has a pushed portion and a drawn portion. The driven member cooperates with a stop member to control stopping of a member card. The slide guiding mechanism further includes a first conductor and a second conductor respectively communicating with ends of a detecting circuit of a circuit system for detecting ejection of the memory card at the earliest time.

  • Patent number: 7175452
    Abstract: A memory card connector includes an insulative frame, a plurality of conductive terminals, an ejecting mechanism for guiding a memory card in or out, and a conductor connecting with a circuit system. The ejecting mechanism includes a guiding groove, a guiding device displacing in the guiding groove, and an urging element providing returning force for the guiding device. The conductor is located in a position before an ejection portion of the guiding groove for detecting the memory card as which is disconnected from a circuit system at the earliest time that the ejecting mechanism be ejected from a starting position of the ejection portion, thereby the circuit system has sufficient time to protect the proceeded data before the memory card disengages wholly from the terminals during the memory card ejects out, avoiding the proceeded data being lost and preventing the memory card from being damaged.
