<p>A connector (10) for an edge card (102) which includes a plurality of contact terminals (50) spaced apart in an elongated connector housing (12) has a single, latch/eject mechanism (200) rotatably disposed at one end thereof which securely latches the edge card in place within the connector housing and which, when actuating force is applied thereto, partially ejects one end of the edge card out of the connector housing to allow the edge card to be "zippered" out of the connector. The mechanism includes a member having two upwardly extending engagement arms (216, 218). The member is rotatable between two positions: a first position wherein the edge card is held by the member in a space (212) between the two engagement arms and a second position wherein the member partially urges the edge card out of the connector housing. <IMAGE></p> |
