Abstract
A card connector includes an insulating housing defining a receiving chamber, a sliding recess and a guiding slot opened in a bottom of the sliding recess and having a front spread towards the receiving chamber to define a guiding slope. An ejecting device includes a slider slidably disposed in the sliding recess, an elastic element clipped between the slider and the sliding recess and a connecting bar having one end fastened in the insulating housing and the other end slidably located in the slider. A front of the slider protrudes sideward to form a holding projection. A block is protruded on a bottom of the slider and received in the guiding slot for cooperating with the guiding slope to guide the movement of the slider so as to make the holding projection tightly buckled in a gap of a card for securing the card in the receiving chamber.
