<p>A card connector has enough endurance for insertion and removal of a memory card and allows stable electrical connection, and achieves miniaturization and lowering of a profile of the connector. This card connector 100 is provided with contacts (130) in a ceiling part (104). The contacts (130) are each fixed along the insertion direction inside an upper surface part (142) of a housing (140), and includes: a bridling strip part (132) that includes a step part (135) which differs a part on a card insertion slot (102) side and a part located closer to the insertion direction side than to the card insertion slot (102) side in the thickness direction of the upper surface part (142); and a contact strip part (134) that is formed to branch from the bridging strip part (132) and contacts an electrode (21) of the memory card (20). The upper surface part (142) is formed along the shape of bridging strip parts (132). In the upper surface part (142), rear side cover plate (152) of a plate (150), placed thanks to the step part (135) in practically the same plane height with the outer surface of the upper surface portion (142b) on the card insertion slot (102), is layered in the upper surface portion (142c) closer to the insertion direction side than the step part (135).</p> |
