Card connector

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connector for a card in which a switch part can be easily installed, capable of changing contact position of a fixed contact and a movable contact of the switch part. ŽSOLUTION: The connector device for a card is composed of a housing 1 in which the card 10 is inserted, a slide member 4 ejecting the card 10 installed in a prescribed position of the housing 1, first and second fixed contacts 9a, 9b, and a switch part electrically connected to the second fixed contact 9b at all time, composed of a movable contact 8 capable of contacting with and separating from the first fixed contact 9a. The switch part is operated in accordance with the movement of the slide member 4 in a direction of a prescribed mounting position, and that the card 10 is mounted on the prescribed mounting position is detected. It is constituted so that the first and second fixed contacts 9a, 9b are formed on the housing and the movable contact 8 is mounted on the slide member. Ž

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a card connecting device including a switch unit that detects that a card for an information storage medium or the like is mounted at a predetermined mounting position in a housing. Background technique [0002] Patent Documents 1 and 2 have already disclosed such prior art. In Patent Document 1, it is disclosed that on the inner side of the casing forming the main body, a device consisting of first and second fixed contact parts and a movable contact part that can be contacted and separated from the first and second fixed contact parts is disclosed. switch department. In the switch unit, for example, when the card is not inserted into the housing and the slide member is not engaged with the movable contact unit, the movable contact unit is connected to the first and second fixed contact units to maintain an open state. In addition, the slide member moves with the insertion of the card, and when the card reaches a pre...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] In the prior art shown in the above-mentioned Patent Documents 1 and 2, since the contact positions of the fixed contact and the movable contact are almost at the same position, when a foreign matter such as dust enters the contact position, the fixed contact and the movable contact are intruded. Poor contact may occur between contacts

In addition, since the switch unit composed of fixed contacts and movable contacts is assembled on the housing, the assembly process of the switch unit is complicated, and there is also a problem that it is difficult to improve the production efficiency of the card connector.
