Abstract
An electrical card connector (100) includes an insulative housing (10) defining a card receiving room, at least one set of terminals (30) retained in the insulative housing, and an ejector attached on the insulative housing. Each terminal has a soldering portion (303) extending out of the insulative housing and a contacting portion (301) extending towards the card receiving room. The ejector includes a slider (50), at least one spring member (90) and at least one pin member (80) cammedly pushing an inserted card. The slider includes a base portion (501) pressing against the contacting portions of the terminals and a pair of arm portions (503) extending laterally from the base portion. The base portion defines a number of passageways (502) and forms a number of protrusions (5011) extending into the corresponding passageways. The slider blocks the contacting portions from entering the card receiving room at an original position and moves to an inner position for giving way for the contacting portions. The contacting portions extend through the passageways into the card receiving room are supported by the protrusions.
