Abstract
A joint socket device for memory cards provides a common lower base with an upper covering to offer a common space for receiving a smart media card (SMC), a multimedia card (MMC), a secure digital memory card (SD) and a memory stick (MS). The joint socket device is available for being inserted with four different memory cards without a need of offering four different socket devices so as to save contact points thereof, reduce the size occupied thereof, and facilitate the use thereof, respectively.
