And, under the state not inserting card pallet 161, as shown in Figure 6B, the contact site 57c of the first contact member 57 does not contact with the contact site 58b of the second contact member 58, first contact member 57 does not contact with the second contact member 58, that is, terminal does not contact each other, and pallet sense switch is in nonconducting state (OFF).But, when card pallet 161 to be inserted in card connector 1 and to arrive assigned position, utilize the front frame portion 165 of card pallet 161 by the pressing displacement of the direction of the free end forward end 11f of the main part 57b of the first contact member 57, the contact site 57c of the first contact member 57 contacts with the contact site 58b of the second contact member 58.Thus, the first contact member 57 contacts with the second contact member 58, and that is, terminal contacts with each other, and pallet sense switch is in conducting state (ON), therefore, it is possible to detect the assigned position that card release pallet 161 arrives card connector 1.

In addition, shell 11 has the first flange part 11h1 and the second flange part 11h2 that extend outside Width from the left and right sides of bottom wall part 11b.This first flange part 11h1 and the second flange part 11h2 is the board member thinner than bottom wall part 11b, and the lower surface of its lower surface and bottom wall part 11b is in same plane.Therefore, the upper surface of the first flange part 11h1 and the second flange part 11h2 than bottom wall part 11b upper surface more on the lower, its result, the shape of the insert port 18 formed between the rearward end 11r and the rearward end 61r of housing 61 of shell 11 is not the elongated rectangular-shaped of constant thickness on whole Width, but has the outstanding protuberance in downside at two ends roughly font is crown.

As mentioned above, because described card pallet 161 is having roughly from when observing above the shape that font is crown, prevents card pallet 161 from namely preventing the function be mistakenly inserted with the posture turned upside down insertion card connector 1 so described insert port 18 plays.In addition, when being described described first flange part 11h1 and the second flange part 11h2 is unified, be described as flange part 11h.

In addition, the size of the thickness direction of described insert port 18 is less than the size of the thickness direction in the rear plate portion 163 of card pallet 161.And then the size of the Width of described insert port 18 is less than the size of the Width in the rear plate portion 163 of card pallet 161.Therefore, described insert port 18 and described rear plate portion 163 co-operating, play and prevent card pallet 161 from namely preventing from being mistakenly inserted with preposterous posture insertion card connector 1.

Then, the action of the card connector 1 of described structure is described.First, action when inserting card pallet 161 is described.

First, user utilizes finger etc., will be equipped with the insert port 18 of card pallet 161 from the rear of card connector 1 of card 101, is inserted in the card insertion space of formation between shell 11 and housing 61.

At this, card pallet 161 with its upper surface upward namely towards the top plate portion 62 of housing 61 and front frame portion 165 towards the posture of the leading section 61f side of housing 61, namely insert with standard gestures.Therefore, when card 101 is contained in card pallet 161, the lower surface 111a being equipped with electrode slice 111d is with by the state that opens downward, and towards being configured with the bottom wall part 11b of shell 11 of terminal 51, front end 111f is towards the leading section 61f side of housing 61.

And, when card pallet 161 to be inserted into from insert port 18 in the card insertion space formed between shell 11 and housing 61, with the first metal side frame portion 154-1 and the lower surface of the second metal side frame portion 154-2 and the upper surface of the first flange part 11h1 and the second flange part 11h2 near to or in contact with state, card pallet 161 is advanced in card insertion space.In addition, because the lower surface in front frame portion 165 is preferably closer to the top than the lower surface 111a of card 101 accommodating in spatial portion 166, so card pallet 161 is fashionable to card insertion space interpolation, even if the contact site 51c of terminal 51 contacts with front frame portion 165, the amount of terminal 51 displacement downwards also can be reduced.

Then, when user's push card pallet 161 is pressed into further, the first maintenance protuberance 75a1 and the second maintenance protuberance 75a2 of the first retaining member 75-1 and the second retaining member 75-2 contact with card pallet 161.Specifically, described first maintenance protuberance 75a1 and the second maintenance protuberance 75a2 almost contacts with the first front end corner part 155b1 exposed at the first side frame portion 164-1 and the second side frame portion 164-2 and the lateral surface of the coupling part at the two ends in front frame portion 165 and the second front end corner part 155b2 simultaneously.

Then, when user's push card pallet 161 is pressed into further, there is strain in the first retaining member 75-1 and the second retaining member 75-2, first of first retaining member 75-1 keeps keeping expanding with the interval of protuberance 75a2 with second of protuberance 75a1 and the second retaining member 75-2, first maintenance protuberance 75a1 and the second maintenance protuberance 75a2 is while the first metal side wall portion 155-1 of exposing with the lateral surface at the first side frame portion 164-1 and the second side frame portion 164-2 and the second metal side wall portion 155-2 sliding contact, relatively move to the rear of card pallet 161 on one side.

In addition, the first contact member 57 contacts with card pallet 161.And then ejection rod 21 also contacts with card pallet 161.Specifically, the front end in the front metal frame portion 152 that the front end in former frame portion 165 is exposed and peripheral part thereof, contact with the free end of the main part 57b of the first contact member 57 and the application point portion 21a of ejection rod 21.

Then, when user's push card pallet 161 is pressed into further, as shown in Figure 1A, Figure 1B, card pallet 161 arrives the assigned position of card connector 1.Now, the direction displacement of the free end forward end 11f of the main part 57b of the first contact member 57 pressed by front frame portion 165, the contact site 57c of the first contact member 57 contacts with the contact site 58b of the second contact member 58.Thus, the first contact member 57 contacts with the second contact member 58, and pallet sense switch is in conducting state, therefore, detects the assigned position that card release pallet 161 arrives card connector 1.

In addition, by the assigned position making card pallet 161 proceed to card connector 1, the application point portion 21a of ejection rod 21 is pressed and the direction displacement of forward end 11f by front frame portion 165, therefore, and the direction displacement of the force portion 21b of ejection rod 21 end 11r backward.Therefore, slide in the direction of the end 11r backward of the push rod 22 with the holding section 22b engaged with described force portion 21b, operating portion 22a is larger than initial condition such shown in Fig. 6 A, Fig. 6 B from the overhang that shell 11 is outstanding.

And then, when card pallet 161 arrives the assigned position of card connector 1, the first maintenance protuberance 75a1 of the first retaining member 75-1 and the second retaining member 75-2 and the second maintenance protuberance 75a2 enters and is sticked in the first maintenance recess 168-1 and the second maintenance recess 168-2 that are formed at the lateral surface of the first side frame portion 164-1 and the second side frame portion 164-2.Specifically, the first side wall end difference 155a1 of the first metal side wall portion 155-1 of exposing of the first maintenance protuberance 75a1 and the second maintenance protuberance 75a2 and the front end at the first maintenance recess 168-1 and the second maintenance recess 168-2 and the second metal side wall portion 155-2 and the second side-wall step portion 155a2 engages.Thus, card pallet 161 is kept with the state being locked in the assigned position in card connector 1.In addition, due to card with pallet 161 by the first retaining member 75-1 and the second retaining member 75-2 from left and right resilient clamp, so card pallet 161 displacement is in the direction of the width limited.

Further, when card 101 is contained in accommodating in card pallet 161, card 101 remains on assigned position together with card pallet 161, thereby, it is possible to and be provided with card connector 1 electronic equipment arithmetic element etc. between carry out the sending/receiving of data.In addition, when card 101 remains on assigned position, the contact site 51c of the terminal 51 of card connector 1 contacts and conducting with the electrode slice 111d of card 101 respectively.

Then, the action that card pallet 161 is discharged from card connector 1 is described.

First, when user utilizes finger wait or promote the operating portion 22a of push rod 22 via the auxiliary part such as pin, bar and be pressed into, the direction displacement of the force portion 21b forward end 11f of the ejection rod 21 engaged with the holding section 22b of push rod 22.In addition, when using auxiliary part, after described auxiliary part inserts by user, the inserting hole 163a in plate portion 163, makes the top of described auxiliary part engage with the recess 22c of operating portion 22a, promotes described operating portion 22a via described auxiliary part.

Thus, the application point portion 21a that front frame portion 165 is ejected bar 21 presses, the card direction displacement of pallet 161 end 11r backward from assigned position.Now, because first maintenance of the first retaining member 75-1 and the second retaining member 75-2 engages with the first side wall end difference 155a1 of protuberance 75a1 and the second maintenance protuberance 75a2 and the first metal side wall portion 155-1 and the second metal side wall portion 155-2 and the second side-wall step portion 155a2, so card pallet 161 is locked, but, the power acted on due to the finger etc. of user is fully large, so easily unlock when the operating portion 22a that user promotes push rod 22 is pressed into, the card direction displacement of pallet 161 end 11r backward.
