Abstract
In an IC card connector in which an IC card is inserted into a card receiving chamber through a card inlet port of a card case so that electrode pads of the IC card are brought into contact with contacts of the card case, an ejecting mechanism in the IC card connector comprises a card pusher inserted into the card receiving chamber from outside the card case through a guide port provided on the card case and engageable with a front end face of the IC card. The card pusher is moved towards the card inlet port within the guide port to push the front end face of the IC card, so that a rear end portion of the IC card is ejected from the card inlet port.
