The movable part 26 provided so that rotation in the insertion and discharge | emission direction (arrow A, B direction) of 31 and 32 is provided. In FIGS. 2 and 3, reference numeral 27 denotes a rotating shaft formed integrally with the base 21, 28 denotes a shaft hole formed in the movable portion 26 and into which the rotating shaft 27 is inserted, and 29 denotes a single piece formed with the base 21. Further, it is a restricting portion that restricts the rotation of the movable portion 26 in the direction from the outside of the accommodating space to the inside of the accommodating space (the direction of arrow A in FIG. 3).

  The detection means 20 is further interposed between the movable portion 26 and the base 21 and constantly urges the movable portion 26 in a direction (arrow B direction) from the outside of the accommodation space formed by the housing 1 to the inside of the accommodation space. A torsion coil spring 30 having conductivity is provided. The torsion coil spring 30 is inserted into the rotating shaft 27. One end 30 a of the torsion coil spring 30 is constantly pressed against the contact surface 22 a of the first fixed contact 22, and movement in the direction in which the torsion coil spring 30 comes out of the rotating shaft 27 is restricted by the protrusion 22 b.

  The other end 30 b of the torsion coil spring 30 comes into contact with the contact surface 23 a of the second fixed contact 23 as the movable portion 26 rotates from the inside of the housing space of the first and second cards 31 and 32 to the outside of the housing space. In addition, the movable portion 26 protrudes from the movable portion 26 so as to be separated from the contact surface 23a of the second fixed contact 23 with the rotation of the movable portion 26 from the outside of the accommodating space into the accommodating space.

  That is, the torsion coil spring 30 contacts both the elastic body that constantly urges the movable portion 26 in the direction from the outside of the housing space to the inside of the housing space (the direction of arrow A), and the first and second fixed contacts 22 and 23. And a movable contact capable of changing to a state of being separated from the second fixed contact 23 of the first and second fixed contacts 22 and 23.

  The present embodiment configured as described above operates as follows.

  The first card 31 is fitted into the first card mounting portion 7 of the tray 6, and the tray 6 in this state is inserted into the insertion port 1 a of the housing 1.

  The tray 6 inserted into the insertion port 1a contacts the claw 16 of the cantilever spring 15 in a state of protruding into the accommodation space. Since the claw 16 converts the pressing force in the insertion direction received from the end of the tray 6 into a force that bends the cantilever spring 15 in the direction away from the accommodation space, the tray 6 leaves the cantilever spring 15 away from the accommodation space. The inside of the housing 1 is moved in the insertion direction while being bent in the direction. When the tray 6 comes into contact with the engaging portion 14 of the slider 12, the claw 16 of the torsion coil spring 30 is fitted into the concave portion 17 of the tray 6 (see FIG. 5).

  The tray 6 moves in the insertion direction together with the slider 12 against the elastic force of a coil spring (not shown) by pressing the engaging portion 14. Then, the tray 6 abuts on the movable portion 26 of the detection means 20 and further moves in the insertion direction, and rotates the movable portion 26 in the insertion direction (arrow A direction) against the elastic force of the torsion coil spring 30. As a result, the other end 30 b of the torsion coil spring 30 contacts the second fixed contact 23, and as a result, the first fixed contact 22 and the second fixed contact 23 are conducted through the torsion coil spring 30.

  The slider 12 moved to the predetermined position in the insertion direction together with the tray 6 is locked by the lock mechanism. The tray 6 is restrained from moving between the slider 12 in both the insertion direction and the discharge direction by the recess 17 and the pawl 16 of the cantilever spring 15. Therefore, when the slider 12 is locked, the tray 6 is in a state in which movement in the discharge direction is suppressed, that is, the first card 31 is held in the storage space. Thus, the accommodation of the first card 31 in the housing 1 is completed. In this state, the plurality of terminals of the first card 31 are exposed to the first contact terminal 2 from the hole 9 of the tray 6. Each of the contact portions 2 a of the plurality of first contact terminals 2 is pressed against each of the plurality of terminals of the first card 31 through the hole 9.

  The cellular phone, AV device, etc. provided with this embodiment read data from the first card 31 when a detection signal associated with the conduction of the first and second fixed contacts 22 and 23 is input. By setting to write or write, read errors, write errors, and data corruption can be prevented.

  In the state where the housing of the first card 31 in the housing 1 is completed, a gap is formed between the slider 12 and the end on the back side of the housing 1. In this state, when the operation unit 10 is pressed and the tray 6 is pushed into the interior of the housing 1 by the gap, the pressing operation member 18 of the release mechanism is pressed by the release operation protrusion 19 of the operation unit 10. Along with this, the release mechanism releases the lock of the slider 12 by the lock mechanism. The slider 12 is pushed back to the initial position (position shown in FIG. 5) together with the tray 6 by the elastic force of a coil spring (not shown). As a result, in the detection means 20, the movable portion 26 is released from being pressed by the tray 6, and returns to the initial position where it abuts on the restricting portion 29 by the elastic force of the torsion coil spring 30, and at the same time, the other end 30 b of the torsion coil spring 30. Is separated from the contact surface 23 a of the second fixed contact 23.

  When the operation unit 10 is picked and pulled in the discharge direction of the tray 6, the cantilever 16 of the cantilever spring 15 receives the pressing force in the discharge direction received from the inner wall surface of the recess 17 in the direction away from the accommodation space. Therefore, the tray 6 moves in the discharge direction while bending the cantilever spring 15 in the direction away from the accommodating space, and accordingly, the claw 16 is detached from the recess 17. Thereby, the tray 6 is released from the suppression of the movement in the discharging direction by the concave portion 17 and the claw 16.

  Since the operation when the second card 32 is received and taken out from the housing 1 is the same as that of the first card 31 described above, the description thereof is omitted.

  According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.

  In the present embodiment, the base 21, which is a member separate from the housing 1, is provided with the first and second fixed contacts 22 and 23, the movable portion 26, and the torsion coil spring 30 (elastic body and movable contact). Therefore, when producing this embodiment, the process of assembling the detection means and the process of assembling the detection means to the housing can be performed separately. Thereby, it is easy to adjust the positional relationship between the first and second fixed contacts 22 and 23 and the movable contact in the detection means 20. Therefore, the reliability of the card connector device can be improved.

  In the present embodiment, since the first contact terminal 2 is formed in the shape of a cantilever spring, the first contact terminal 2 can be pressed against the terminal of the first card 31 by its own elastic force. The contact state of the first contact terminal 2 with respect to the other terminal can be stabilized. Further, since the detection means 20 overlaps the first contact terminal 2 in a direction corresponding to the thickness direction of the first card 31, even if the first contact terminal 2 is formed in a cantilevered spring shape, the detection means. The space in which 20 and the first contact terminals 2 are arranged can be reduced, and the housing 1 can be easily downsized.

  In the present embodiment, the soldering to the first and second fixed contact soldering portions 24 and 25 can be a series of steps including the soldering to the first contact terminal soldering portion 4. Thereby, the efficiency of the manufacturing operation of the card connector device can be improved.

  In the present embodiment, since the second fixed contact soldering portion 25 is disposed between the adjacent first contact terminal soldering portions 4, the first contact terminal soldering portions 4 are arranged in parallel. Compared with the case where the second fixed contact soldering part 25 is separated, the degree of freedom of the wiring connected to the second fixed contact soldering part 25 can be improved.

  In the present embodiment, the torsion coil spring 30 having conductivity has an elastic body that constantly urges the movable portion 26 in the direction from the outside of the housing space to the inside of the housing space, and the first and second fixed contacts 22 and 23. Both of the first and second fixed contacts 22 and 23 are movable contacts capable of changing to a state separated from the second fixed contact 23. That is, the elastic body and the movable contact However, the configurations of the elastic body and the movable contact in the present invention are not limited thereto, and may be separate.

  When the movable contact is separate from the elastic body, the movable contact is in contact with both the first and second fixed contacts 22 and 23 and the first of the first and second fixed contacts 22 and 23. 2 may be provided so as to be separated from the fixed contact 23, or may be provided in a state in which both the first and second fixed contacts 22, 23 are in contact with the first fixed contact 22.
