Abstract
Disclosed is a trigger device for release of the restrained link arm in a memory card connector. In this device a longitudinally directed force which may result, for example, from the activation of an electrical current in a memory wire causes a rotational force transfer device to withdraw a pin from the link arm so that the link arm moves out of its restrained position in response to a longitudinal force provided by a spring connected to the link arm.
