Patent attributes
A card connector adapted for receiving a SIM card includes an insulating housing having a front surface and two opposite lateral surfaces. The front surface has at least one receiving recess extending rearward. Each of the lateral surfaces has a propping portion which passes through a top surface of the insulating housing. A plurality of connecting terminals is received in the insulating housing. The metal shell coupled with the insulating housing has a covering plate and two lateral plates extending downwards from two opposite sides of the covering plate. A front edge of the covering plate has at least one first mating portion of L shape of which a bottom is received in the receiving recess. A bottom of the lateral plate curves inwards to form a resistive portion resting against the propping portion for forming a chamber for receiving the SIM card.
