  • Card slot structure having an automatic card ejection function
    Patent number: 9397420
    Abstract: A card slot structure is disposed in a housing of an electronic device. The card slot structure includes a slot, a cover door, and a push portion, wherein the slot has a push-push type unit. A card is adapted to be fixed in or ejected from the slot through the push-push type unit along a first axial direction. The cover door is slidably disposed in the housing along a second axial direction for opening or closing the slot. A push portion is connected to the cover door. As the cover door slides along the second axis to open the slot, a portion of the card located in the moving path of the push portion is pushed into the slot to trigger the push-push type unit. As the push portion moves away from the card, the card is ejected from the slot through the push-push type unit.
