  • Patent number: 5559672
    Abstract: A door apparatus for a portable computer memory card international association (PCMCIA) aperture formed in a surface of a portable computer having a molded housing structure. The aperture has opposing edges and is configured to receive a PCMCIA card therethrough. The door apparatus includes a first and second doors having inner and outer sides. The outer sides are hingedly coupled via journal members and bearing supports to the opposing edges of the aperture to separately rotate between a closed position wherein the inner sides of the first and second doors are adjacent to one another and an open position wherein the inner sides of the first and second doors are rotated in opposing directions when a PCMCIA card is inserted through the aperture. The door apparatus further includes a biasing member coupled to the first and second doors to thereby pivotally rotate the first and second doors toward the closed position when the PCMCIA card is removed from the aperture.
