Abstract
A card edge connector with latches that improve the connector's reliability. The connector comprises a housing having a slot for receiving a card and latches on opposite ends of the slot for locking the card in the slot. Each latch includes a body and a projection extending in a transverse direction from a side surface of the body. The latch is pivotably connected to the housing by the projection. The latch may rotate about the projection between a locked position and an unlocked position. The body includes a lower body and an upper body wider than the lower body in the transverse direction. The projection is disposed on the lower body. The latch further includes a protrusion extending between the projection and the upper body. Such a configuration restricts the latches from moving in the housing and therefore improves the reliability of the connector.
