An electrical card connector (100) includes a receiving space (10) for receiving an electrical card, an insulative housing (1), a metal plate (3) installed on the insulative housing (1) and an ejecting mechanism (4) retained in the insulative housing (1). The ejecting mechanism (4) includes a movable slider (41), a coiled spring (42) urging the slider forwardly and a link rod (43) for controlling the slider to be positioned at a first position or a second position. The slider (41) includes a heart-shape groove (413) for guiding and limiting a movement of the slider (41). The metal plate (3) defines a pair of first and second retaining portions (31, 32) for limiting movement of the slider (41).
