A plug-in card with retractable antenna for electronic portable devices

摘要

A plug-in card (210) for electronic devices having an approximately oblong rectangular flat form includes an enclosure (211) with a printed circuit board accommodated in the enclosure, on which printed circuit board a contacting device for a SIM card is mounted electrically and mechanically, and a receiver for the chip card. So as to enable the user of a portable computer to communicate with and to the outside using external wireless connections in a simple fashion, even without the assistance of a mobile telephone and a cable connection, the plug-in card (210) includes a mobile radio antenna (215), which, relative to a narrow side (214) of the plug-in card (210), can be moved out of a safekeeping position within the enclosure (211) into an operating position arranged substantially outside of the enclosure (211) on that narrow side (214).
