Patent number: 10312634Abstract: Disclosed is an electronic device card socket capable of preventing the breakage of a hinge and preventing noise (static), which is caused by movement between respective parts, in the tray-type card socket. The electronic device card socket according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes a socket housing, a socket cover, an ejecting hinge part, and ejecting bar, and a movement preventing means. The socket housing has a space into which a tray equipped with a card is inserted. The socket cover is provided at the upper part of the socket housing. The ejecting hinge part is rotatably hinge-coupled to one side of the socket housing so as to push the tray forward and separate the same when the ejecting hinge part rotates. The ejecting bar is provided at the other side of the socket housing so as to move in the forward and backward directions, and is connected to the ejecting hinge part so as to rotate the ejecting hinge part when the ejecting bar moves forward and backward.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2016Date of Patent: June 4, 2019Assignee: Molex, LLCInventors: Eun Guk Kim, In Chull Yang, Jeong Yong Park
