  • Publication number: 20150294125
    Abstract: The connector comprises a holding member and a contact which is held by the holding member. The contact has a fixed portion, a first spring portion and a second spring portion. The fixed portion is held by and fixed on the holding member. The first spring portion extends from the fixed portion. The first spring portion includes two pressed portions, a movable starting point and a movable end portion which is movable. When an inserting object is moved along a moving direction which is a forward direction or a rearward direction, the pressed portions are pressed by a press portion to be moved downward perpendicular to the moving direction. The inserting object is a card or a card adapter. The inserting object has the press portion. The second spring portion is provided with a free end and a contact point.

  • Patent number: 8523614
    Abstract: [Object] To provide a card socket having a structure that achieves a low profile. [Solving Means] The base portion of a card frame is basically constituted by a base frame (100) made of metal. Resin is used only for parts where absolutely necessary, such as a housing (200) for retaining contacts (300) and a switch piece holding housing (700) that retains a second switch piece (620). Thus, the resin thickness can be reduced while maintaining the strength of the card socket, so that the structure of the card socket is simplified and a low profile can be achieved.
