Abstract
The card guide with hook/card lock as disclosed is designed to prevent a printed circuit board (PCB) from being disengaged without first moving the mechanical card locking hook an adequate distance. When the mechanical card locking hook is flexed to disengage a PCB, the card lock will move only enough to allow the PCB to be disengaged and removed. The card guide has a built in fixed stop to prevent the extended card lock from deforming or breaking during disengagement of a PCB.
