Abstract
An electronic card connector (100) includes an insulative housing (1), a plurality of terminals (2) retained in the insulative housing, a tray (5) movable between an original position and a final position and having a notch (51) and a stepping part (52), a shielding shell (4) having an elastic part (43), and an ejecting mechanism (6). The elastic part has a holding part (432) for latching with the stepping part at a final position. The ejecting mechanism has a lever (62) including a buckling portion (624) and a spring (61) cooperated with the lever. The lever is movable forwardly against with the spring to disengage the holding part from the stepping part and to plunge the buckling portion into the notch, thereby permitting the tray together with the lever to return to the original position under a restoring force provided by the spring.
