Abstract: A card reader with a protective mechanism includes an upper shell, a lower shell, a protective mechanism and a circuit board assembly. An upper portion of a front end of the upper shell slantwise extends downward and rearward, and then is bent rearward to form an upper extending portion. A lower portion of the front end of the upper shell extends rearward to form a lower extending portion. The upper extending portion is spaced from the lower extending portion to form an inserting passageway between the upper extending portion and the lower extending portion. The lower shell is mounted to a bottom surface of the upper shell. The protective mechanism is disposed between the upper shell and the lower shell. The circuit board assembly is disposed between the upper shell and the lower shell.
