A retractable card reader is described herein. In some examples, the retractable card reader can comprise a reader body having an incision to insert a card and a rotatable bracket attached to the reader body to guide the card into the reader body.

According to various embodiments, an electronic device may include: a housing including an opening connected to an internal space of the electronic device; a tray socket connected to outside the electronic device through the opening in the internal space and including a tray reception space; a tray configured to be inserted into the tray reception space, wherein the tray includes a tray body including at least one space configured to receive at least one external component; and a tray cover including a pin insertion hole configured to guide a tray ejecting pin to the opening; an eject bar movably disposed in a tray mounting direction or ejecting direction in the tray reception space and facing the pin insertion hole; and a rotation lever configured to press the tray in the ejection direction based on pressing of the eject bar in the tray reception space, wherein the eject bar is disposed at a position at least partially overlapping the tray body when viewed from above the tray socket.

Electronic devices are provided with ejectable component assemblies. The ejectable component assembly may include a tray that can be loaded with one or more removable modules, wafers coupled to circuit boards, cages and retaining plates to assist in retaining the tray within the assembly. The ejectable component assembly may include springs operative to engage detents in the tray to retain the tray in the assembly. The ejectable component assembly may include a tray ejector mechanism for ejecting the tray from the assembly.

An apparatus is described. In an embodiment, the apparatus comprises a housing; a tray; an ejector; a push member having two positions, the push member is configured to receive an external force for moving the push member and to operate the ejector to eject the tray to an ejected open position when the push member is moved to a second position and to maintain in the second position; and a switch comprising two electric position; the switch is configured to switch to a first electric position when receiving the external force, and the push member is configured to maintain the switch in the first electric position when the push member is moved to the second position causing the tray to eject; when the tray is returned to a retracted closed position, the push member is moved to a first position causing the switch to switch to a second electric position.

This document describes apparatuses that include integrated memory card ejector and sensor ports. A first described aspect of an apparatus includes a memory card connector, a housing, and a carriage. The memory card connector includes a receiver configured to receive a memory card and an ejector assembly configured to eject the memory card from the receiver. The housing includes a sidewall that includes a memory card slot and an integrated port. The integrated port defines an outside opening of the housing. The carriage includes a slide portion slidably positioned in the integrated port and is accessible through the outside opening of the housing. The carriage includes a carriage body having an outer port, a sensor port, and an acoustic chamber defined within the carriage body. The carriage includes an ejector connector configured for contacting the ejector assembly and a sensor assembly mounted on the carriage at the sensor port.

A tray mechanism for a device housing includes a tray bed having a planar surface with first and second opposing sides that form a boundary around the planar surface, wherein the first opposing sides include a front side and a back side, wherein the front side is configured with dimensions for closing an opening of a cavity within the device housing, and wherein the second opposing sides are configured for a slideable attachment within the cavity of the device housing. The tray mechanism further includes a lever positioned on the planar surface of the tray bed and a hinge mechanism that pivotally connects the lever to the planar surface of the tray bed. A method for operating the tray mechanism includes a convex side of the lever rolling against the device housing as the lever rotates to eject the tray bed pivotally connected to lever from the device housing.

The present disclosure relates to a card socket for an electronic device and, more particularly, to a card socket for an electronic device having an improved card insertion confirmation structure, wherein the structure of a card insertion confirmation terminal, which senses full insertion of a card or a tray into a card socket, is changed so as to improve stability of insertion of the card or the tray.

A connector is provided that includes a housing, a contact, and a slider. The housing includes a mating connector receiving section, while the contact extends into the mating connector receiving section. The slider is positioned on the housing and includes a cam plate and a protruding wall positioned along a rear end of the cam plate.

The card connector includes a card connector base and a limiting structure. The card connector base includes a first area and a second area, the limiting structure includes a first limiting part and a second limiting part; the first limiting part is used to limit a first data card in the first area, and the second limiting part is used to limit a second data card or a third data card in the second area; a first spring plate group is disposed in the first area and is configured to electrically connect to edge connectors of the first data card; a second spring plate group and a third spring plate group are disposed in different positions of the second area; the second spring plate group is configured to electrically connect to edge connectors of the second data card; the third spring plate group is configured to electrically connect to edge connectors of the third data card.

A chip card securing assembly detachably received in a body of an electronic device, the chip card securing assembly includes a tray and a connector. The tray includes a receiving portion and a holding portion. The receiving portion includes a first end and a second end, the second end defines a receive slot. The holding portion extends from the first end and configured to hold a chip card. The connector is received in the receiving portion and exposed from the receive slot. An electronic device applying the chip card securing assembly is also provided.
