Abstract
The present invention provides a card connector in which heat dissipation of a card can be performed by means of a heatsink without requiring any operation of the heatsink by the consumer. The card connector comprises a heatsink for contacting one surface of the card that is inserted into a connector part, and a push rod for ejecting the card. The push rod has a cam having a first cam surface which acts so that the heatsink moves away from the one surface of the card at the time of the insertion of the card, and a second cam surface which acts so that the heatsink moves away from the one surface of the card during the ejection of the card.
