Abstract
An electrical card connector includes an insulative housing, an ejector and a shield casing. The insulative housing includes an insertion space formed therein, and a guiding groove. The ejector includes a sliding element and an auxiliary terminal. The sliding element has a guiding block projected from a bottom side thereof. The guiding block is installed slidably in the guiding groove. The auxiliary terminal is disposed slidably in the sliding element. The auxiliary terminal has a guiding piece. The shield casing covers the insulative housing, and has a concave portion received in the insertion space. The shield casing has a guiding track parallel to the guiding groove of the insulative housing, wherein the guiding piece is installed slidably in the guiding track. As such, the sliding element can be moved smoothly into the guiding groove and the electronic card can be smoothly inserted into or ejected from the insulative housing.
