The escape groove 25 is used to provide movement space for the supporting member 2 so that the supporting member 2 can move. The notch 24 and the other end of the supporting arm 23 are fixedly connected to the connecting portion 22, so that the supporting arm 23 forms a cantilever structure, thereby avoiding the situation where the supporting arm 23 is pulled and broken. Furthermore, the cantilever structure of the supporting arm 23 is beneficial for increasing the elasticity of the supporting arm 23 .
[0034] One end of the abutting arm 23 is provided with a protrusion 231 that protrudes into the card slot 11. The protrusion 231 is used to abut the communication card 200. Under the combined action of the abutment of the communication card 200 by the wall of the card slot 11, the communication card 200 is confined in the card slot 11. When the communication card 200 is installed in the card slot 11, the protrusion 231 moves toward the avoidance groove 25.
[0035] It is understood that in some embodiments, the fixing portion 21 is not limited to the above structure, and the fixing portion 21 can have other structures. For example, the fixing portion 21 is connected and fixed to the first side wall of the installation groove 12, and a gap 24 is formed between one end of the supporting arm 23 and the second side wall of the installation groove 12. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the supporting member 2 does not include the fixing portion 21, and the connecting portion 22 is fixedly connected to the first side wall of the installation groove 12, so that an avoidance groove 25 is formed between the supporting arm 23 and the first side wall of the installation groove 12.
[0036] In some embodiments, there are two supporting arms 23, and the two supporting arms 23 are symmetrically arranged. Specifically, the two supporting arms 23 are symmetrically arranged with the connecting portion 22 as the center. The two supporting arms 23 respectively support the two sides of the communication card 200, so that the communication card 200 is subjected to balanced force, thereby better confining the communication card 200 in the card slot 11.
[0037] In some embodiments, the abutting member 2 is made of plastic.
[0038] For Guide 3 above, see Figure 2 The guide member 3 includes a guide portion 31 and a mounting portion 32. The guide portion 31 is mounted in the mounting opening 13 and fixed to the mounting portion 32. The guide portion 31 guides the terminals 301 of the card holder 300 when the card tray 100 is inserted into or removed from the card holder 300. The mounting portion 32 is fixed to the fixing slot 14.
[0039] The guide portion 31 is provided with a first guide surface 311 and a second guide surface 312. The first guide surface 311 is provided on the surface of the guide portion 31 facing away from the abutment 2, and the angle between the first guide surface 311 and the surface of the guide portion 31 facing away from the mounting portion 32 is an obtuse angle, so that the first guide surface 311 is arranged at an angle, thereby guiding the terminal 301 of the card holder 300 when the card tray 100 is inserted into the card holder 300. The second guide surface 312 is provided on the surface of the guide portion 31 facing the abutment 2, and the angle between the second guide surface 312 and the surface of the guide portion 31 facing away from the mounting portion 32 is an obtuse angle, so that the second guide surface 312 is arranged at an angle, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, when the card tray 100 is pulled out of the card holder 300, the terminals 301 of the card holder 300 are guided. Furthermore, the first guide surface 311 and the second guide surface 312 prevent the terminals 301 of the card holder 300 from interfering during insertion, causing the terminals 301 of the card holder 300 to fail in elasticity or be damaged.
[0040] In some embodiments, the guide 3 is made of insulating material to prevent the shell 302 of the card holder 300 and the terminal 301 from short-circuiting through the frame 1 made of metal material when the card tray 100 is inserted into or removed from the card holder 300.
