Card reader

Abstract

The invention relates to a card reader which comprises a seat body and an electric module, wherein the seat body comprises a hollow shell conforming to a USB plug type and a socket combined at the rear part of the hollow shell; a containing space for containing the electric module is formed in the hollow shell, and an inlet vertically communicated to the containing space is arranged on the socket; the electric module is a circuit plate provided with a USB type first connection point set, and the other side far from the first connection point set is provided with a second connection point set; a connector forming the vertical direction with the circuit plate is combined on the second connection point set, faces to the inlet of the seat body and forms the electric contact with a vertically inserted external electronic card; and the card reader has small structure and can be inserted by the external electronic card to form a vertical state so as to effectively utilize a butted space with an electronic device, thereby achieving the effects of wide applicability and better extensibility.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrical connector, in particular to a card reader. Background technique [0002] The progress of modern science and technology also leads many electronic products to continuously innovate and progress, and enter the digital age. Therefore, digital technology products are constantly being introduced, such as digital TVs, digital audio, MP3, digital cameras, electronic dictionaries, PDAs or other electronic products. products, etc. In many digital products, the memory card is usually used to store, access data, update memory data, etc., and then the card reader reads or stores the data inside the memory card. However, in pursuit of ease of use , Easy to carry, many electrical products are designed to be light, thin, short, and small, and the internal components must be reduced in size, so it is necessary to design a smaller memory card power supply product for use. [0003] At present, the memory cards on the market are ro...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In addition, the card reader is an interface between the memory card and the host computer, through the USB jack of the host computer, the card reader can transmit data, so that the card reader can be quickly read by the host computer by hot plugging. However, the current card readers on the market are relatively large in size, occupy too much space, and are inconvenient to carry because of their large size, which also increases the overall weight of the card reader, so that the card reader cannot be directly inserted into the USB jack of the host computer. On the Internet, only an additional USB cable can be purchased for connection before transmission can be carried out, resulting in an increase in use costs, resulting in more and more cables around the computer host

[0005] Furthermore, the opening method of the USB jack on the casing of the general computer host is to follow the upper and lower docking grooves of the stacked electrical connector in the casing to correspond to the arrangement, so that the USB jacks are adjacent to and close to each other up and down on the surface of the casing. The storage device (such as flash drive, card reader, etc.) of the USB connection part is inserted into it, and when the general storage device is plugged into the upper USB jack, the lower USB jack is blocked by the volume of the storage device, causing the lower USB plug The problem that another storage device cannot be plugged into the socket, so that only one storage device can be plugged into two USB sockets at a time
