Abstract
The present invention provides a PC card connector which has a small number of parts, and which makes it possible to obtain good operating characteristics and a low-operating force by means of a relatively simple structure. A guide plate assembly (70) of the PC card connector has a guide plate (32) which has guide grooves (80, 84) and a circular cam groove (82); furthermore, the guide plate assembly (70) also has pressing-bar assemblies (72a, 72b) which are disposed on both sides of the guide plate 32. Each of the pressing-bar assemblies (72a, 72b) has a swinging plate (76) which is pivot mounted on a pin (74) in a front portion. Pins (74, 77) and projection (89) of the pressing-bar assembly (72a) respectively slide along a guide groove (80), circular cam groove (82) and guide groove (84) of the guide plate (32) in accordance with the operation of the pressing-bar assembly (72a). When the knob (26) is pressed, the swinging bar (76) is displaced in a lateral direction and engages with an eject bar (24) so that the eject bar is pushed thereby operating an ejection member (16) to eject a PC card (2) from the card connector.
