Memory card connector

摘要

A memory card connector has a sliding member and a sliding pin for coupling the insertion and rejection of the memory card. The sliding member can be stayed at the position of insertion or rejection of the memory card. A retaining sheet is formed on the side of the sliding member. The end of the retaining sheet is stamped into a dimple. A retaining portion is formed on the housing of the memory card connector corresponding to the position of the dimple. The dimple can be pushed into the retaining portion when the memory card is rejected to the rejection position. The dimple can be protruded into a notch formed on the memory card by the resilience force of the retaining sheet while the notch reaches the position corresponding to the dimple. Because of the dimple leaving the position corresponding to the retaining portion of the housing; the dimple can be retained in the notch when the memory card is pushed toward the insertion position. The dimple retains the notch of the memory card for preventing the memory card from dropping out of the predetermined position or being ejected abnormally while the memory card is in the insertion state.
