Abstract
The present invention provides a card connector capable of preventing contact parts of connector terminals from coming off card contact terminal parts due to overstroke after the contact parts contact the card contact terminal parts when the card is mounted. A housing 1 is disposed with a first contact part and a second contact part which are different from each other in placement position in an insertion direction of a card, correspondingly to one contact terminal part disposed in the card, and when the card is inserted or ejected, as long as the card is further subjected to overstroke in the insertion direction from a card mounting position, at least one of the first contact part and the second contact part is formed so as to always contact one contact terminal part.
