Abstract

A card connector includes an insulating housing having a base board of which two sides of a top define two sliding chutes each extending along a front-to-rear direction. A tray has a substantially U-shaped carrying board having two slide boards slidably assembled in the sliding chutes to realize a front-to-rear slide of the tray and a connecting board having one end designed with a locking fillister, two restraining boards and blocking slices protruding upward from side edges and rear edges of the slide boards respectively. A lever has one end designed with a locking section, and the other end pivoted in the other end of the connecting board to make the lever rotatable between a closed position by the locking section being bucked in the locking fillister for holding a card in the tray, and an opened position for the convenience of insertion and extraction of the card.
