Abstract
In this front face of an electronics card designed to be inserted into a housing through an opening, at least one of the edges of which opening is provided with a notched bar, that portion of said front face which is to be disposed in the vicinity of said bar is provided with at least one abutment surface for abutting against a drive member engaged through the notch when inserting said card into the housing or when extracting it therefrom. The method consists in inserting a drive member through one of the notches in said bar, in causing said member to bear against an abutment surface, and in exerting a pivot force on said drive member to pivot it about the zone via which it bears against an edge of the notch, so that a force is transmitted to the front face, at the abutment surface, in a direction corresponding to inserting the card or to extracting the card.
