Abstract
The invention relates to a removable memory cartridge for electronic equipment such as a programmable automaton, the cartridge being of the type comprising a box (101), a memory unit mounted in the box, an elongate connector fixed to the box, and grasping means provided on the box to enable the cartridge to be extracted by seaprating the connector. The grasping means comprise a flat member (110) hinged about an axis (114) lying at least approximately in the midplane of the connector, said flat member being suitable for occupying a first position against the box where it does not substantially increase the size thereof, and a second position away from the box in which it may be grasped in order to exert an extraction force on the box acting substantially level with the connector.
