Electrical card connector with improved detect means

摘要

An electrical connector ( 100 ) provides a housing ( 1 ) defining a receiving space ( 10 ), a number of contacts ( 3 ) received in the housing, and an improved detect means including a first switch contact ( 4 ) and a second switch contact ( 5 ). The contacts and the switch contacts are embedded in corresponding passageways ( 111 ) defined on a mounting wall ( 11 ) of the housing. The second switch contact has a body portion ( 53 ) and a tail portion ( 54 ) curved backwardly from the body portion. The tail portion provides an extension potion ( 541 ) extending laterally to be positioned under the first switch contact and be spaced from the first switch contact a distance, and the first switch contact is depressed to engage with the extension portion when an electronic card ( 7 ) is inserted into the receiving space of the housing.
