Abstract
A card connector 1, which is constructed with a main body 11, a flap member 21, a plurality of first contacts 31 and a plurality of second contacts 32, comprises a first connector section 10 and a second connector section 20. The first connector section 10 allows removable insertion of a first card-like memory module 51 through a insertion opening 12 into a slot-like receiving part provided at the lower part of the main body 11 for electrical connection through the first contacts 31, which are aligned and retained in the receiving part. The second connector section 20 allows removable installation of a second card-like memory module 52 for electrical connection through the second contacts 32, which are aligned and retained on the main body above the receiving part, with the flap member 21 being mounted on the upper part of the main body 11 pivotally to be opened and closed for installation of the second card-like memory module 52.
