Description

卡連接器 Card connector

本揭露係關於一種卡連接器,尤關於一種SIM卡連接器。 The present disclosure relates to a card connector, and more particularly to a SIM card connector.

圖1顯示揭露於公開號第2010/0055985 A1號美國專利之一現有SIM(subscriber identity module)卡連接器1。SIM卡連接器1具有一絕緣殼體11、一金屬遮罩16、一卡承載機構14、一對之彈性件12、一縱向臂13、一端子模組15,以及一開關17。絕緣殼體11具有一卡收容空間。金屬遮罩16可組裝於絕緣殼體11。卡承載機構14可插入卡收容空間。彈性件12具有鎖扣部121,鎖扣部121可固持卡承載機構14。縱向臂13包含一主體部131和兩彎曲彈性臂132,兩彎曲彈性臂132設置於主體部131之相對兩端。端子模組15設置於絕緣殼體11,並具有複數端子151。開關17具有一可動件171和一固定件172,其中當卡承載機構14未插入時,固定件172接觸可動件171。彈性件12產生較弱固持力量,不足以固持卡承載機構14。為將卡承載機構14牢牢地固持住,因此需使用縱向臂13。 1 shows a conventional SIM (subscriber identity module) card connector 1 disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2010/0055985 A1. The SIM card connector 1 has an insulative housing 11, a metal mask 16, a card carrying mechanism 14, a pair of elastic members 12, a longitudinal arm 13, a terminal module 15, and a switch 17. The insulating housing 11 has a card housing space. The metal mask 16 can be assembled to the insulative housing 11. The card carrying mechanism 14 can be inserted into the card housing space. The elastic member 12 has a locking portion 121, and the locking portion 121 can hold the card supporting mechanism 14. The longitudinal arm 13 includes a main body portion 131 and two curved elastic arms 132. The two curved elastic arms 132 are disposed at opposite ends of the main body portion 131. The terminal module 15 is disposed in the insulative housing 11 and has a plurality of terminals 151. The switch 17 has a movable member 171 and a fixing member 172, wherein the fixing member 172 contacts the movable member 171 when the card carrying mechanism 14 is not inserted. The resilient member 12 produces a weaker holding force that is insufficient to hold the card carrier mechanism 14. In order to hold the card carrier 14 firmly, it is therefore necessary to use the longitudinal arm 13.

縱向臂13具有兩彎曲彈性臂132,兩彎曲彈性臂132對應一對之彈性件12。當卡承載機構14插入時,卡承載機構14會壓抵各彈性件12之U形部,並將各彈性件12之U形部往外移動。各彈性件12之頂端接觸對應之彈性臂132,因而額外的固持力會施加在卡承載機構14。然而,SIM卡連接器1使用太多的彈性元件來固持卡承載機構14。為收容這些彈 性元件,會使用掉許多SIM卡連接器1之內部空間。再者,儘管導入縱向臂13可增加固持力,然而這些彈性元件仍不夠強而有力而能將卡承載機構14牢固地固持,因此仍無法避免卡承載機構14可能被意外拔出。 The longitudinal arm 13 has two curved elastic arms 132, and the two curved elastic arms 132 correspond to a pair of elastic members 12. When the card carrying mechanism 14 is inserted, the card carrying mechanism 14 presses against the U-shaped portions of the elastic members 12 and moves the U-shaped portions of the elastic members 12 outward. The top end of each of the elastic members 12 contacts the corresponding elastic arm 132, and thus an additional holding force is applied to the card carrying mechanism 14. However, the SIM card connector 1 uses too many elastic members to hold the card carrying mechanism 14. In order to accommodate these bombs Sexual components will use the internal space of many SIM card connectors 1. Moreover, although the introduction of the longitudinal arms 13 can increase the holding force, these elastic members are still not strong enough to hold the card carrying mechanism 14 securely, and thus it is still impossible to prevent the card carrying mechanism 14 from being accidentally pulled out.

此外,可動件171具有一弧形部,弧形部凸入卡收容空間,以接觸插入之卡承載機構14。當卡承載機構14插入時,可動件171被推離開固定件172,從而產生一插卡信號。SIM卡連接器1有另一個缺點。因為是卡承載機構14移動可動件171,即便卡承載機構14上無SIM卡,插卡信號仍會被觸發,造成不必要之讀、寫操作。 Further, the movable member 171 has an arcuate portion that protrudes into the card accommodating space to contact the inserted card carrying mechanism 14. When the card carrying mechanism 14 is inserted, the movable member 171 is pushed away from the fixing member 172, thereby generating a card signal. The SIM card connector 1 has another disadvantage. Since the card carrying mechanism 14 moves the movable member 171, even if there is no SIM card on the card carrying mechanism 14, the card signal is still triggered, resulting in unnecessary reading and writing operations.

圖1B與圖1C顯示揭露於公告號第6,270,365號美國專利之另一現有SIM卡連接器2。現有SIM卡連接器2具有一殼體20,殼體20具有一內殼體部,該內殼體部可將IC卡22固定於殼體20內。一滑動件21具有一軸部,滑動件21可在內殼體部旁滑動。退出臂23具有一軸孔,軸孔形成在退出臂23之中間。滑動件21之軸部可配合地插入退出臂23之軸孔,如此退出臂23可繞著滑動件21之軸部轉動。退出臂23具有第一臂部23a和第二臂部23b,第一臂部23a和第二臂部23b從退出臂23之盤狀部分向外延伸。第一臂部23a是提供以當IC卡22正被插入時抵接IC卡22之前端,以轉動退出臂23。第二臂部23b具有一頂端部,頂端部具有圓形形狀,頂端部可伸入IC卡22之一側邊上之凹部221。 1B and 1C show another prior art SIM card connector 2 disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 6,270,365. The existing SIM card connector 2 has a housing 20 having an inner housing portion that secures the IC card 22 within the housing 20. A slider 21 has a shaft portion, and the slider 21 is slidable beside the inner casing portion. The exit arm 23 has a shaft hole formed in the middle of the exit arm 23. The shaft portion of the slider 21 is cooperatively inserted into the shaft hole of the exit arm 23 such that the exit arm 23 is rotatable about the shaft portion of the slider 21. The exit arm 23 has a first arm portion 23a and a second arm portion 23b, and the first arm portion 23a and the second arm portion 23b extend outward from the disk portion of the exit arm 23. The first arm portion 23a is provided to abut the front end of the IC card 22 when the IC card 22 is being inserted to rotate the exit arm 23. The second arm portion 23b has a distal end portion having a circular shape, and the distal end portion can extend into the concave portion 221 on one side of the IC card 22.

由於第二臂部23b是以擺動方式移動,因此IC卡22之凹部221必須要足夠大,如此當IC卡22插入時,第二臂部23b 才不會碰觸IC卡22。然而,大的凹部221會讓插入之IC卡22鬆動(如圖1C所示),而無法使其緊固。此外,SIM卡連接器2之退卡與卡鎖固機構包括太多部件,故太複雜,因而造成高成本。 Since the second arm portion 23b is moved in an oscillating manner, the recess 221 of the IC card 22 must be sufficiently large, so that when the IC card 22 is inserted, the second arm portion 23b The IC card 22 is not touched. However, the large recess 221 causes the inserted IC card 22 to be loosened (as shown in Fig. 1C), and cannot be fastened. In addition, the card ejecting and card locking mechanism of the SIM card connector 2 includes too many components, which is too complicated and thus causes high cost.

圖2顯示現有並揭露於公告號第7,261,578號之另一SIM卡連接器。參照圖2所示,現有SIM卡連接器8包含一絕緣殼體81、收容於絕緣殼體81內之複數端子82、一開關85、包含一滑動件84和一退卡件86之一退卡機構,以及覆蓋絕緣殼體81之一殼體83。SIM卡連接器8是一種雙推式(push-push type)連接器,故其具有複雜之退卡機構。通常,複雜之退卡機構會包括太多構件,造成高成本。再者,滑動件84的設計太複雜,因此滑動件84必須以塑膠射出成型之方法製造。滑動件84並不導電,因此需使用金屬製退卡件86,以和開關85一同導通端子82。額外增加之退卡件86增加成本及使SIM卡連接器8之組裝變更為複雜。此外,開關85包含兩接觸件,兩接觸件相對於滑動件84之移動方向橫向排列。此種開關無法使用在由包括桿件和槓桿件之機構所操作之推拉式(push pull type)連接器上。 Figure 2 shows another SIM card connector as disclosed and disclosed in Bulletin No. 7,261,578. Referring to FIG. 2, the existing SIM card connector 8 includes an insulative housing 81, a plurality of terminals 82 received in the insulative housing 81, a switch 85, and a card including a slider 84 and a card ejecting member 86. The mechanism, and a housing 83 covering one of the insulating housings 81. The SIM card connector 8 is a push-push type connector, so it has a complicated card ejecting mechanism. Often, complex card ejecting mechanisms can include too many components, resulting in high costs. Moreover, the design of the slider 84 is too complicated, so the slider 84 must be manufactured by plastic injection molding. The slider 84 is not electrically conductive, so a metal snap-off member 86 is required to electrically connect the terminal 82 with the switch 85. The additional card ejecting member 86 adds cost and complicates the assembly of the SIM card connector 8. In addition, the switch 85 includes two contacts that are laterally aligned with respect to the direction of movement of the slider 84. Such a switch cannot be used on a push pull type connector operated by a mechanism including a lever member and a lever member.

鑑於前述問題,一種新的連接器被提出。 In view of the foregoing problems, a new connector has been proposed.

The two detecting terminals 37 are disposed under the actuating member 351 and form a switching circuit with the actuating member 351. The switch circuit can control whether the plurality of terminals 33 are turned on or off.

在一實施例中,卡鎖扣件34是剛性的,不具彈性,如此插入之托盤5可被穩固地固持。 In one embodiment, the latching fastener 34 is rigid and non-elastic, so that the inserted tray 5 can be securely held.

在一實施例中,卡連接器3也可收容那些可直接插入卡 連接器3之電子卡。 In an embodiment, the card connector 3 can also accommodate those directly insertable cards. The electronic card of the connector 3.

特別地,卡連接器3可進一步包含一蓋件31。當蓋件31固定在本體32上時,致動件351和槓桿件352會被限位於蓋件31和本體32之間。 In particular, the card connector 3 may further include a cover member 31. When the cover member 31 is fixed to the body 32, the actuating member 351 and the lever member 352 are confined between the cover member 31 and the body 32.

特別地,槓桿件352可憑藉一樞軸322轉動。槓桿件352包含一第一臂部3521和一第二臂部3522。第一臂部3521在本體32之後方橫向延伸,並包含一端部35211。端部35211可被移入收容空間321內,以退出插入的托盤36。第一臂部3521之端部35211可進一步包含一推動片。當槓桿件352轉動以退出托盤36或當托盤36插入收容空間321時,第一臂部3521會接觸托盤36。第二臂部3522延伸靠近致動件351,如此致動件351可推動第二臂部3522、轉動槓桿件352,以及移動第一臂部3521,以在退卡過程中將插入的托盤36向外推出。 In particular, the lever member 352 is rotatable by a pivot 322. The lever member 352 includes a first arm portion 3521 and a second arm portion 3522. The first arm portion 3521 extends laterally behind the body 32 and includes an end portion 35211. The end portion 35211 can be moved into the receiving space 321 to exit the inserted tray 36. The end portion 35211 of the first arm portion 3521 may further include a push piece. When the lever member 352 is rotated to eject the tray 36 or when the tray 36 is inserted into the accommodating space 321, the first arm portion 3521 contacts the tray 36. The second arm portion 3522 extends closer to the actuating member 351 such that the actuating member 351 can push the second arm portion 3522, rotate the lever member 352, and move the first arm portion 3521 to insert the inserted tray 36 during the card withdrawal process. Outreach.

特而言之,如圖8和圖18所示,槓桿件352可在圖8或圖12所示之一第一位置和圖18所示之一第二位置間轉動,以退出插入的托盤。於一退卡過程中,一推動件6推動致動件351,在槓桿件352之第二臂部3522抵接致動件351之一端部後,槓桿件352被轉動,轉動之槓桿件352以其端部35211將插入的托盤6向外推動,直到槓桿件352到第二位置上。在第二位置上,第一臂部3521部分延伸入收容空間321。另一方面,在插卡過程中,一正插入之托盤36推抵槓桿件352之第二臂部3522之端部35211,轉動槓桿件352,直到托盤36完全插入為止,同時使槓桿件352位於第一位置上。 In particular, as shown in Figures 8 and 18, the lever member 352 can be rotated between a first position shown in Figure 8 or Figure 12 and a second position shown in Figure 18 to exit the inserted tray. During a card retracting process, a pushing member 6 pushes the actuating member 351. After the second arm portion 3522 of the lever member 352 abuts one end of the actuating member 351, the lever member 352 is rotated, and the rotating lever member 352 is rotated. Its end portion 35211 pushes the inserted tray 6 outward until the lever member 352 reaches the second position. In the second position, the first arm portion 3521 partially extends into the receiving space 321. On the other hand, during the card insertion process, a tray 36 that is being inserted pushes against the end portion 35211 of the second arm portion 3522 of the lever member 352, and the lever member 352 is rotated until the tray 36 is fully inserted while the lever member 352 is positioned. In the first position.

致動件351可移動至一靠內位置(如圖18所示)或一靠外位置(如圖6或圖12所示)。致動件351可沿平行托盤36之插入方向之一方向移動。致動件351可用來移動卡鎖扣件34。卡鎖扣件34可包含一第一連動部342,而致動件351可包含第二連動部3511。第一連動部342和第二連動部3511可相連結,以讓卡鎖扣件34和致動件351可連動(linked rmovement),如此卡鎖扣件34在鎖扣位置和開鎖位置間移動時,致動件351可向內和向外同步移動。當致動件351移動至靠外位置上時,卡鎖扣件34同步移動至鎖扣位置。第一連動部342和第二連動部3511間之相互配合可讓卡鎖扣件34和致動件351在不同方向上移動,例如在兩垂直方向上移動。 Actuator 351 can be moved to an inner position (as shown in Figure 18) or an outer position (as shown in Figure 6 or Figure 12). The actuating member 351 is movable in one of the insertion directions of the parallel trays 36. Actuator 351 can be used to move latching clip 34. The latching fastener 34 can include a first linkage portion 342, and the actuator member 351 can include a second linkage portion 3511. The first linking portion 342 and the second linking portion 3511 can be coupled to allow the latching member 34 and the actuating member 351 to be linked rmovement, such that the latching member 34 moves between the latching position and the unlocking position. The actuating member 351 can move synchronously inward and outward. When the actuating member 351 is moved to the outer position, the latching member 34 is synchronously moved to the latching position. The interaction between the first linkage portion 342 and the second linkage portion 3511 allows the latching member 34 and the actuator member 351 to move in different directions, for example, in two perpendicular directions.

特別地,當卡鎖扣件34在鎖扣位置上時,卡鎖扣件34之鎖扣部341會在托盤36上所形成之凹口361內(圖4);當卡鎖扣件34在開鎖位置位置上時,卡鎖扣件34之鎖扣部341會移離開托盤36之凹口361,如此鎖扣部341不會阻礙插入的托盤36在收容空間321內的移動。 In particular, when the latching member 34 is in the latching position, the latching portion 341 of the latching member 34 will be formed in the recess 361 formed in the tray 36 (Fig. 4); when the latching member 34 is When the unlocking position is in the position, the locking portion 341 of the latching member 34 is moved away from the recess 361 of the tray 36, so that the latching portion 341 does not hinder the movement of the inserted tray 36 in the receiving space 321.

特而言之,如圖12所示,為操作順利,卡連接器3可被形成為在第一位置上之槓桿件352之第二臂部3522與致動件351間之距離x可大於卡鎖扣件34從鎖扣位置到開鎖位置之移動距離y,其中卡鎖扣件34在開鎖位置上不阻礙插入的托盤36在收容空間321內的移動。 In particular, as shown in FIG. 12, for smooth operation, the card connector 3 can be formed such that the distance x between the second arm portion 3522 of the lever member 352 and the actuating member 351 in the first position can be greater than the card. The moving distance y of the locking member 34 from the locking position to the unlocking position, wherein the locking fastener 34 does not hinder the movement of the inserted tray 36 in the receiving space 321 in the unlocking position.

如圖5所示,在一實施例中,卡鎖扣件34之第一連動部342包含一銷桿(pin),而致動件351之第二連動部3511包含一開槽,其中開槽可相對於致動件351之移動方向傾斜一角 度(例如45度)。開槽具有兩長開槽邊。當致動件351移動時,一長開槽邊會抵接銷桿,並推動該銷桿沿其移動,如此卡鎖扣件34可被移動。在另一方面,當銷桿移動時,銷桿會抵壓另一長開槽邊,並沿該長開槽邊移動,以推動致動件351。 As shown in FIG. 5, in an embodiment, the first linking portion 342 of the latching member 34 includes a pin, and the second linking portion 3511 of the actuating member 351 includes a slot in which the slot is slotted. Inclining a corner with respect to the moving direction of the actuating member 351 Degree (for example, 45 degrees). The slot has two long slotted edges. When the actuating member 351 is moved, a long slotted edge abuts the pin and pushes the pin along it so that the latching member 34 can be moved. On the other hand, when the pin moves, the pin will press against the other long slot and move along the long slot to push the actuator 351.

如圖5所示,彈性件353可抵接致動件351,以提供一彈力,其中該彈力相反作用於將致動件351向內移動之一力量,且該彈力可在該力量移除後,將致動件351向外移動。在一實施例中,彈性件353包含彈簧。 As shown in FIG. 5, the elastic member 353 can abut against the actuating member 351 to provide an elastic force, wherein the elastic force acts on a force that moves the actuating member 351 inwardly, and the elastic force can be removed after the force is removed. The actuator 351 is moved outward. In an embodiment, the resilient member 353 includes a spring.

特別地,如圖5與圖6所示,致動件351包含一突出部3512,突出部3512可接觸彈性件353,如此當致動件351向內移動時,突出部3512可壓縮彈性件353。本體32更包含一槽道325,槽道325收容彈性件353。槽道325為一端壁所界定,其中彈性件353之一端部抵靠槽道325之該端壁。 In particular, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the actuator 351 includes a protrusion 3512 that can contact the elastic member 353 such that when the actuator 351 moves inward, the protrusion 3512 can compress the elastic member 353. . The body 32 further includes a channel 325 that receives the elastic member 353. The channel 325 is defined by an end wall with one end of the resilient member 353 abutting the end wall of the channel 325.

如圖4與圖5所示,本體32包含一第一下凹區域323及一第二下凹區域324。第一下凹區域323讓致動件351限制在向內與向外移動。第二下凹區域324限制卡鎖扣件34之移動。第一下凹區域323鄰近本體32之一側邊。第二下凹區域324可橫越第一下凹區域323。 As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the body 32 includes a first recessed area 323 and a second recessed area 324. The first recessed area 323 restricts the actuator 351 from moving inwardly and outwardly. The second recessed area 324 limits the movement of the latching fastener 34. The first recessed area 323 is adjacent one of the sides of the body 32. The second recessed area 324 can traverse the first recessed area 323.

如圖5與圖7所示,兩偵測端子37設置於致動件351之下方。致動件351可為導電材料製作,例如金屬。致動件351與兩偵測端子37構成開關電路,開關電路控制複數端子33導通或不導通。當致動件351在靠外位置上時,複數端子33是導通的。在致動件351之移動路徑上,存在一觸發位置( 如圖9所示),當致動件351通過觸發位置時,偵測端子37和致動件351之連接狀態會改變。值得一提的是在致動件351移動至觸發位置前,複數端子33是導通的,而當致動件351移動通過觸發位置時,複數端子33是不導通的,如此可避免電子卡5遭受破壞。 As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 7 , the two detecting terminals 37 are disposed below the actuating member 351 . Actuator 351 can be fabricated from a conductive material, such as a metal. The actuating member 351 and the two detecting terminals 37 constitute a switching circuit, and the switching circuit controls the plurality of terminals 33 to be turned on or off. When the actuator 351 is in the outer position, the plurality of terminals 33 are conductive. On the moving path of the actuating member 351, there is a trigger position ( As shown in FIG. 9, when the actuating member 351 passes the trigger position, the connection state of the detecting terminal 37 and the actuating member 351 changes. It is worth mentioning that before the actuator 351 is moved to the trigger position, the plurality of terminals 33 are conductive, and when the actuator 351 moves through the trigger position, the plurality of terminals 33 are non-conducting, so that the electronic card 5 can be prevented from being subjected to damage.

如圖6與圖7所示,在一實施例中,兩偵測端子37是沿平行致動件351之移動方向之一方向設置。 As shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, in one embodiment, the two detecting terminals 37 are disposed in one direction of the moving direction of the parallel actuating member 351.

特別地,如圖4所示,電子卡5包含複數個接觸墊51。當電子卡5正被插入時,致動件351在向內移動通過觸發位置前,接觸墊51不接觸複數端子33。當電子卡5完全插入後,所有接觸墊51接觸對應端子33,且卡鎖扣件34臨近托盤36之凹口361。此時,彈性件353開始將致動件351向外移動,卡鎖扣件34同時向凹口361移動。當致動件351向外移動時,在致動件351移動通過觸發位置後,導通複數端子33。 In particular, as shown in FIG. 4, the electronic card 5 includes a plurality of contact pads 51. When the electronic card 5 is being inserted, the contact pad 51 does not contact the plurality of terminals 33 until the actuator 351 moves inward through the trigger position. When the electronic card 5 is fully inserted, all of the contact pads 51 contact the corresponding terminals 33, and the latch fasteners 34 are adjacent to the notches 361 of the tray 36. At this time, the elastic member 353 starts to move the actuating member 351 outward, and the latching member 34 simultaneously moves toward the notch 361. When the actuator 351 moves outward, the plurality of terminals 33 are turned on after the actuator 351 moves through the trigger position.

在另一方面,當電子卡5正被退出時,在致動件351向內移動且移動通過觸發位置前,電子卡5不移動。當致動件351向外移動時,在致動件351移動通過觸發位置前,電子卡5脫離複數端子33。 On the other hand, when the electronic card 5 is being ejected, the electronic card 5 does not move until the actuator 351 moves inward and moves through the trigger position. When the actuator 351 moves outward, the electronic card 5 is disengaged from the plurality of terminals 33 before the actuator 351 moves past the trigger position.

在一實施例中,致動件351包含兩凸部3513,兩凸部3513對應兩偵測端子37。當致動件351在靠外位置上時,致動件351脫離至少一偵測端子37且複數端子33是導通的。當致動件351移動通過觸發位置時,致動件351之兩凸部3513對應接觸兩偵測端子37,形成一迴路,讓複數端子33是不 導通的。隨著致動件351在超越觸發位置過後之向內移動,致動件351之兩凸部3513持續接觸兩偵測端子37,而且複數端子33保持在不導通的狀態。 In one embodiment, the actuating member 351 includes two convex portions 3513, and the two convex portions 3513 correspond to the two detecting terminals 37. When the actuating member 351 is in the outer position, the actuating member 351 is disengaged from the at least one detecting terminal 37 and the plurality of terminals 33 are conductive. When the actuating member 351 moves through the triggering position, the two convex portions 3513 of the actuating member 351 contact the two detecting terminals 37 to form a loop, so that the plurality of terminals 33 are not Conducted. As the actuating member 351 moves inwardly beyond the triggering position, the two convex portions 3513 of the actuating member 351 continuously contact the two detecting terminals 37, and the plurality of terminals 33 are maintained in a non-conducting state.

再者,致動件351包含一開口3515,開口3515對應一偵測端子37設置。開口3515用於確保當致動件351在如圖7所示之靠外位置上時,對應偵測端子37不接觸致動件351。 Furthermore, the actuating member 351 includes an opening 3515, and the opening 3515 is disposed corresponding to a detecting terminal 37. The opening 3515 is for ensuring that the corresponding detecting terminal 37 does not contact the actuating member 351 when the actuating member 351 is in the outer position as shown in FIG.

如圖12與圖13所示,卡連接器3可在槓桿件352將插入的托盤36向外推移前,複數端子33是不導通的。為此,致動件351之靠外位置與觸發位置間之距離c不大於第二臂部3522與致動件351間之距離x。為避免在端子33不導通前移動電子卡5,距離c需不大於移動距離y。 As shown in Figures 12 and 13, the card connector 3 can be non-conducting before the lever member 352 pushes the inserted tray 36 outward. To this end, the distance c between the outer position of the actuating member 351 and the triggering position is not greater than the distance x between the second arm portion 3522 and the actuating member 351. In order to avoid moving the electronic card 5 before the terminal 33 is turned on, the distance c needs to be no larger than the moving distance y.

圖8至圖13是用來說明在本發明一實施例中承載著電子卡5之托盤36插入卡連接器3之步驟。圖8與圖9例示承載著電子卡5之托盤36插入收容空間321內並移至觸發位置。在觸發位置上,凸部3513開始接觸對應偵測端子37,且托盤36接觸卡鎖扣件34之一切角,並將卡鎖扣件34略微向外推動。同時,致動件351會同步略微向內移動,彈性件353會被略微壓縮。從圖可看出,在觸發位置上,電子卡5之接觸墊51不接觸複數端子33。 8 to 13 are views for explaining the step of inserting the tray 36 carrying the electronic card 5 into the card connector 3 in an embodiment of the present invention. 8 and 9 illustrate that the tray 36 carrying the electronic card 5 is inserted into the accommodating space 321 and moved to the trigger position. In the trigger position, the projection 3513 comes into contact with the corresponding detecting terminal 37, and the tray 36 contacts all corners of the latching member 34 and pushes the latching member 34 slightly outward. At the same time, the actuating member 351 will move slightly inward in synchronization, and the elastic member 353 will be slightly compressed. As can be seen from the figure, the contact pads 51 of the electronic card 5 do not contact the plurality of terminals 33 at the trigger position.

如圖10與圖11所示,托盤36持續向內移動,致動件351移動通過觸發位置,致動件351持續接觸偵測端子37,而複數端子33繼續保持不導通狀態。在其中的一些時刻,卡鎖扣件34被推移離開托盤36之插入路徑且以其前緣推壓在托盤36之一側上,而致動件351移動至非常靠近槓桿件352之 第二臂部3522之位置上,例如距離第二臂部3522小於0.1公釐(mm)的位置上。 As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the tray 36 continues to move inwardly, the actuator 351 moves through the trigger position, the actuator 351 continues to contact the detection terminal 37, and the plurality of terminals 33 continue to remain non-conductive. At some of these times, the latching member 34 is pushed away from the insertion path of the tray 36 and urged with its leading edge on one side of the tray 36, while the actuator 351 is moved very close to the lever member 352. The second arm portion 3522 is located, for example, at a position less than 0.1 mm from the second arm portion 3522.

如圖12與圖13所示,當托盤36被完全插入後,卡鎖扣件34會臨近托盤36之凹口361,而不再推壓著托盤36。由於沒有抵抗力量,致動件351被由壓縮彈性件353所產生之彈力量外推動,在第一連動部342與第二連動部3511之配合下,卡鎖扣件34被同步向內移動,帶動鎖扣部341向托盤36之凹口361移動。最後,彈性件353推動致動件351回到靠外位置,且卡鎖扣件34位在鎖扣位置。 As shown in Figures 12 and 13, when the tray 36 is fully inserted, the latch fastener 34 will be adjacent the notch 361 of the tray 36 and will no longer push the tray 36. Since there is no resistance force, the actuating member 351 is pushed by the elastic force generated by the compression elastic member 353, and the latching member 34 is synchronously moved inwardly in cooperation with the first linking portion 342 and the second linking portion 3511. The latching portion 341 is moved to the notch 361 of the tray 36. Finally, the resilient member 353 pushes the actuating member 351 back to the outer position and the latching member 34 is in the latched position.

圖14至圖19是用來說明在本發明一實施例中承載著電子卡5之托盤36被移出卡連接器3之步驟。如圖14與圖15所示,用推動件6將致動件351向內移動,卡鎖扣件34之鎖扣部341移出凹口361,以解開托盤36之鎖扣,且槓桿件352被轉動,將托盤36向外推出。 14 to 19 are views for explaining the step of removing the tray 36 carrying the electronic card 5 from the card connector 3 in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, the actuating member 351 is moved inwardly by the pushing member 6, and the latching portion 341 of the latching member 34 is moved out of the recess 361 to unlock the latch of the tray 36, and the lever member 352 It is rotated to push the tray 36 outward.

如圖4與圖5所示,本體32包含一開口326,開口326露出致動件351之彎曲端部3514。托盤36包含另一開口362,開口362對應本體32之開口326。推動件6(例如插桿)插入開口326和362,推動致動件351之彎曲端部3514,將致動件351向內移動。當致動件351向內移動時,在第一連動部342與第二連動部3511之配合下,使卡鎖扣件34進行同步移動,將卡鎖扣件34之鎖扣部341移出托盤36之凹口361。當致動件351移動至觸發位置(如圖15所示),凸部3513接觸對應偵測端子37,使複數端子33不導通。在觸發位置上時,卡鎖扣件34之鎖扣部341可被部分移出托盤36之凹口361。此時 ,電子卡5尚未被移動。 As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the body 32 includes an opening 326 that exposes the curved end 3514 of the actuator 351. The tray 36 includes another opening 362 that corresponds to the opening 326 of the body 32. A pusher 6 (e.g., a plunger) is inserted into the openings 326 and 362, pushing the curved end 3514 of the actuator 351 to move the actuator 351 inwardly. When the actuating member 351 moves inward, the latching member 34 is synchronously moved in cooperation with the first linking portion 342 and the second linking portion 3511, and the latching portion 341 of the latching member 34 is removed from the tray 36. The notch 361. When the actuating member 351 moves to the trigger position (as shown in FIG. 15), the convex portion 3513 contacts the corresponding detecting terminal 37, so that the plurality of terminals 33 are not turned on. When in the triggered position, the latching portion 341 of the latching fastener 34 can be partially removed from the recess 361 of the tray 36. at this time The electronic card 5 has not been moved yet.

如圖16與圖17所示,當推動件6持續推動致動件351,卡鎖扣件34之鎖扣部341可被移出托盤36之凹口361,且致動件351可被移至一接觸位置,其中在該接觸位置上,致動件351開始接觸槓桿件352之第二臂部3522。較佳地,在致動件351接觸槓桿件352前,卡鎖扣件34之鎖扣部341可完全移出凹口361。 As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, when the pusher 6 continues to push the actuating member 351, the latching portion 341 of the latching member 34 can be removed from the recess 361 of the tray 36, and the actuating member 351 can be moved to a A contact position in which the actuator 351 begins to contact the second arm portion 3522 of the lever member 352. Preferably, the latching portion 341 of the latching member 34 can be completely removed from the recess 361 before the actuating member 351 contacts the lever member 352.

如圖18與圖19所示,在致動件351接觸槓桿件352之第二臂部3522後,隨著致動件351被推動件6向內移動,槓桿件352跟著被轉動。轉動的槓桿件352之第一臂部3521之端部35211推動托盤36之後側,將托盤36向外移動,直到槓桿件352轉動至第二位置上。 As shown in Figs. 18 and 19, after the actuating member 351 contacts the second arm portion 3522 of the lever member 352, as the actuating member 351 is moved inward by the pushing member 6, the lever member 352 is rotated. The end portion 35211 of the first arm portion 3521 of the rotating lever member 352 pushes the rear side of the tray 36 to move the tray 36 outward until the lever member 352 is rotated to the second position.

如圖20與圖21所示,在托盤36被退出至如圖18所示之位置上時,推動件6可被移開。在推動件6移開後,彈性件353之彈力將致動件351向外推動,當卡鎖扣件34觸及托盤36之側邊時,致動件351停止移動。 As shown in Figs. 20 and 21, when the tray 36 is withdrawn to the position shown in Fig. 18, the pusher 6 can be removed. After the pushing member 6 is removed, the elastic force of the elastic member 353 pushes the actuating member 351 outward. When the latching member 34 touches the side of the tray 36, the actuating member 351 stops moving.

如圖22與圖23所示,托盤36接著被手動移出。在托盤36移出時,當卡鎖扣件34不推抵托盤36之側邊時,彈性件353之彈力進一步將致動件351向外移。最後,致動件351移回靠外位置上,而卡鎖扣件34回到鎖扣位置上。 As shown in Figures 22 and 23, the tray 36 is then manually removed. When the tray 36 is removed, when the latch fastener 34 does not push against the side of the tray 36, the elastic force of the elastic member 353 further moves the actuator 351 outward. Finally, the actuating member 351 is moved back to the outer position and the latching member 34 is returned to the latched position.

此外,在退卡階段,當卡鎖扣件34推抵在托盤36之側邊,致動件351一直接觸著偵測端子37。當致動件351移動通過如圖8所示之觸發位置時,致動件351脫離偵測端子37,而且當致動件351向外移動時,在致動件351移動通過觸 發位置前,電子卡5之接觸墊51已經脫離對應端子33,如此電子卡5可獲得保護。 Further, in the card withdrawal phase, when the latching member 34 is pushed against the side of the tray 36, the actuating member 351 is always in contact with the detecting terminal 37. When the actuating member 351 moves through the triggering position as shown in FIG. 8, the actuating member 351 is disengaged from the detecting terminal 37, and when the actuating member 351 moves outward, the actuating member 351 moves through the touch. Before the position, the contact pad 51 of the electronic card 5 has been detached from the corresponding terminal 33, so that the electronic card 5 can be protected.

卡連接器包含一彈性件、用於鎖扣一插入的托盤之一卡鎖扣件(或無需托盤之另一型態之單一電子卡)和用於使卡鎖扣件在一鎖扣位置與一開鎖位置移動之一退卡機構。卡鎖扣件具剛性,如此插入的托盤可被牢牢地固持。再者,卡鎖扣件是以線性移動方式扣合托盤上之凹口,如此托盤不是鬆動地被固持住。再者,退卡機構包含致動件,致動件可在一靠外位置與一靠內位置間移動。彈性件可抵接致動件,以提供相反於將致動件向內移動之力量之彈力。當該力量移除後,彈力可將致動件向外移動。此外,致動件可包含導電材料,如此致動件可接觸設置於致動件下方之偵測端子,形成迴路,使該些端子不導通。此種偵測開關電路設計簡單,可運用在其他類型之電連接器。 The card connector includes an elastic member, a latching fastener for locking one of the inserted trays (or a single electronic card of another type without a tray), and for causing the latching fastener to be in a latching position One of the unlocking positions moves one of the card withdrawal mechanisms. The latching fastener is rigid so that the inserted tray can be firmly held. Moreover, the latching fastener fastens the notch on the tray in a linear movement so that the tray is not loosely held. Furthermore, the ejecting mechanism includes an actuating member that is movable between an outer position and an inner position. The resilient member abuts the actuator to provide an elastic force that opposes the force that moves the actuator inwardly. When the force is removed, the spring force can move the actuator outward. In addition, the actuating member may comprise a conductive material such that the actuating member may contact the detecting terminal disposed under the actuating member to form a loop such that the terminals are non-conducting. The detection switch circuit is simple in design and can be applied to other types of electrical connectors.
