Title

(EN) CARD CONNECTOR

(FR) CONNECTEUR DE CARTE

Abstract

(EN) A card connector is configured for receiving a card having contact pads with the card having a thickness and a width perpendicular to the thickness. The card connector includes a housing with a slot for receiving the card and conductive terminals within the housing and which contact the contact pads of the card. A switch includes a first contact member and a second contact member wherein the first contact member is moveable in a direction parallel to the thickness direction of the card upon insertion of the card into the housing such that the first contact member moves relative to the second contact member.

(FR) L'invention concerne un connecteur de carte conçu pour recevoir une carte présentant des plages de contact, la carte présentant une épaisseur et une largeur perpendiculaire à l'épaisseur. Le connecteur de carte comprend un boîtier présentant une fente destinée à recevoir la carte, ainsi que des bornes conductrices fixées à l'intérieur du boîtier et qui entrent en contact avec les plages de contact de la carte. Un commutateur comprend un premier élément de contact et un second élément de contact, le premier élément de contact pouvant être déplacé dans une direction parallèle à l'épaisseur de la carte lors de l'insertion de la carte dans le boîtier de sorte que le premier élément de contact se déplace relativement au second élément de contact.
