Abstract: An electrical connector includes a housing having an opening portion in an upper surface thereof including a width edge in a short side direction and a side edge in a long side direction; a terminal disposed in the housing; and a suction member detachably attached to the housing. The suction member includes a plate portion for covering the housing and an attachment portion for attaching to the housing at a middle portion of the side edge. The plate portion includes an attachment region between both end portions of the attachment portion in the long side direction and a non-attachment region outside the attachment region extending to a distal end portion of the plate portion in the long side direction. The non-attachment region includes a deformable portion with a free end portion to be deformable.

Abstract: A card connector include a housing with a contact; an ejector provided inside the housing to be slidable between a holding position and a temporary holding position in a card insertion and pull-out direction; and an elastic member provided inside the housing for urging the ejector from the holding position to the temporary holding position. The ejector has a corresponding locking portion to be locked with a locking portion of the card. The ejector is slidable between the holding position and the temporary holding position while being locked with the locking portion. When the card is moved toward the card insertion slot beyond the temporary holding position, the corresponding locking portion contacts with the card. Accordingly, the corresponding locking portion moves away from the locking portion, and the elastic member moves away from the locking portion, so that the locking portion is unlocked from the corresponding locking portion.

Abstract: A card socket assembly includes a plurality of sockets situated in multiple stages for receiving cards and a pair of fixing members disposed at both sides of the sockets for fixing the sockets to a circuit board. Each of the fixing members includes a fixing portion to be fixed to the circuit board and a holding portion for holding the socket. The holding portion of one of the fixing members includes a first holding member for holding all of the sockets. The holding portion of the other of the fixing members includes a second holding member for holding one of the sockets and an elastic holding member for holding the others of the sockets separately and elastically.

Abstract: The socket for a card comprises a connector portion (16) on the rear side, an opening portion on the front side, and a guiding means (17) for guiding a card (C2) having a width smaller than a width of the opening portion to the proper position for connection with the connector portion. The socket has bottom and top plane portions (11, 25, and 30) for regulating the position of the card in the thicknesswise direction of the card and side face portions (12 and 13) for regulating the position of the card in a widthwise direction to define an accommodation space to receive the card. The guiding means is made by processing part of the bottom and top plane and side face portions (11, 25, 30, 12, and 13) that are made of a metal sheet so as to extend slantwise toward the connector portion (16) and continuously in parallel to the card insertion direction (A).

Abstract: A card ejector comprises a frame (10) having a support section (11) for guiding and supporting a removable card (C) and a guide plate (23) extending substantially parallel to said support section (11) and having a guiding slot (24); an ejector lever (39) provided on said frame (10) for ejecting the card (C); a first push rod (31) made of a flat metal sheet and provided in parallel to said guide plate (30) for sliding therealong upon depression; a second push rod (32) made of a flat metal sheet and provided in parallel to said guide plate (23) for transmitting a force from said first push rod (31) to said ejector lever (39); and a cam member (40) provided behind said first rod (31) so as to face said second rod (32) for engagement with said guiding slot (24) such that when said first rod (31) is depressed, said second rod (32) pushes said ejector lever (39) for rotation, thereby pushing said card (C) for ejection.
