Abstract: A card connector can ensure credibility of electric contact between electrodes of an inserted card and contact elements against impact and vibration as well as lowering of the height. The card connector has a main body unit having a panel portion including contact elements with a spring property, and having a rising portion on either side, the rising portion having at its front portion a notch portion followed by a hook portion, and having at its rear portion a generally L-shaped see-through hole; and a tray having a card holding portion for inserting a card, and having a front-portion tab and a rear-portion tab on either side, wherein when the tray is closed, the front-portion tab is in a position for engaging with the hook portion and the rear-portion tab is in a position at an end of a horizontal portion of the generally L-shaped see-through hole to regulate the movement of the tray in the back-and-forth direction.
