Memory card socket
A memory card socket is disclosed. The memory card socket has a body for receiving a memory card, many pins to electrically connect to the memory card, two elastic members for holding the memory card, and a blocking member for restraining one of the two elastic members. In accordance with the format of the memory card, the blocking member can restrain or release the elastic member for holding the memory card.
1. A memory card socket comprising:
a body comprising at least one first space for a memory card;
a plurality of pins disposed in the first space for electrically connecting the memory card;
a first and a second elastic members respectively disposed on the body and extending into the first space for holding the memory card; and
a blocking member disposed on the first elastic member for restraining the second elastic member from being deformed outwardly from the first space when the first elastic member is not deformed.
2. The memory card socket of claim 1 , wherein the first elastic member is disposed on a top wall of the body and the second elastic member is disposed on a side wall of the body.
3. The memory card socket of claim 2 , wherein said first elastic member disposed on said top wall is made out of the same metal piece of said top wall.
4. The memory card socket of claim 1 , wherein the first elastic member is disposed on the side wall of the body and the second elastic member is disposed on the top wall of the body.
5. The memory card socket of claim 4 , wherein said second elastic member disposed on said top wall is made out of the same metal piece of said top wall.
6. The memory card socket of claim 1 , wherein the first elastic member is disposed on the bottom wall of the body and the second elastic member is disposed on the side wall of the body.
7. The memory card socket of claim 1 , wherein the first elastic member is disposed on the side wall of the body and the second elastic member is disposed on the bottom wall of the body.
8. A memory card socket comprising:
a body comprising at least one first space for a memory card;
a plurality of pins disposed in the first space for electrically connecting the memory card;
an elastic member disposed on the body and extending into the first space for holding the memory card; and
blocking means for restraining the elastic member from being deformed outwardly from the first space when the blocking means is not pressed by the memory card.
9. The memory card socket of claim 8 , wherein the elastic member is disposed on a side wall of the body and the blocking means is disposed on a top wall of the body.
10. The memory card socket of claim 8 , wherein the body further comprises a second space overlapping the first space.
11. The memory card socket of claim 10 , wherein the elastic member extends into an overlap between the first space and the second space.
12. The memory card socket of claim 10 , further comprising:
at least one assistant elastic member disposed on the body and extending into the second space and opposite to said elastic member for holding the memory card.
13. The memory card socket of claim 12 , wherein the elastic member is disposed on the top wall of the body and the blocking means is disposed on the side wall of the body.
14. The memory card socket of claim 12 , wherein the elastic member is disposed on a side wall of the body and the blocking means is disposed on a top wall of the body.
15. The memory card socket of claim 12 , wherein the elastic member is disposed on the bottom wall of the body and the blocking means is disposed on the side wall of the body.
16. The memory card socket of claim 12 , wherein the elastic member is disposed on the side wall of the body and the blocking means is disposed on the bottom wall of the body.
17. The memory card socket of claim 12 , wherein the body further comprises a second space overlapping the first space.
18. The memory card socket of claim 17 , wherein the elastic member extends into an overlap between the first space and the second space.
19. The memory card socket of claim 17 , further comprising:
at least one assistant elastic member disposed on the body and extending into the second space and opposite to said elastic member for holding the memory card.
20. The memory card socket of claim 12 , further comprising:
at least one assistant elastic member disposed on the body and extending into the first space and opposite to said elastic member for holding the memory card.
