Socket with pick up cap with a pivot having a long side and a short side
A socket comprises an insulating housing receiving a plurality of contacts, and a pick-up cap engaging with the insulating housing. The pick-up cap has a planar main body covering the insulating housing. The main body is formed with two pivots on a side thereof. The insulating housing is formed with a plurality of sidewalls, one of the sidewall is provided with a pair of mounting seats on an outside thereof, each mounting seat defines a mounting hole with a gap, and the pivots of the pick-up cap enter into the mounting holes via the gaps to pivotally assemble the pick-up cap to the mounting seats.
1. A socket comprising:
an insulative housing receiving a plurality of contacts, the insulative housing having a plurality of sidewalls and at least one mounting seat formed on one of the sidewalls and defining a mounting hole with a gap; and
a pick up cap assembled to the insulative housing, the pick up cap formed with at least one pivot disposed on a side thereof, the pivot inserting into the mounting hole via the gap to pivotally assemble the pick up cap to the insulative housing.
2. The socket as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the mounting seat has a base and an accessory seat which both extend outwardly from the sidewall of the insulative housing.
3. The socket as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the base has a first recess with an upwardly opening, and the accessory seat has a second recess with a downwardly opening, the first and the second recesses cooperatively forms the mounting hole, the mounting hole is located outside the sidewall.
4. The socket as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the mounting seat has a base protruding outwardly from the sidewall, the sidewall of the insulative housing defines a horizontal slot from a part thereof facing the base, the horizontal slot passes through a top surface of the sidewall and has arch bottom.
5. The socket as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the insulative housing further defines an upright slot communicating with the horizontal slot and passing through a bottom surface of the sidewall, the sidewall forms an accessory seat at a part thereof above the upright slot, and a bottom seat at a part thereof under the horizontal slot, so that the base, the bottom seat and the accessory seat together define the mounting hole.
6. A socket comprising:
an insulative housing having a plurality of sidewalls and a pair of mounting seats, the mounting seats located on one of the sidewalls and defining a mounting hole which substantially having a circular section with a gap; and
a pick up cap assembled to the insulative housing, the pick up cap formed with a pair of pivots pivotally received in the mounting hole, the pivots substantially having a rectangular shape with a long side and a short side, and the pivot inserting into the mounting hole via the gap when the short side faces the gap and limited in the mounting hole when the long side faces the gap.
7. The socket as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the mounting seat has a base and an accessory seat, both of the base and the accessory seat extend outwardly from the sidewall of the insulative housing.
8. The socket as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the base has a first recess with an upwardly opening, and the accessory seat has a second recess with a downwardly opening, the first and the second recesses cooperatively forms the mounting hole, the gap is defined between the base and the accessory seat.
9. The socket as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the mounting seat has a base protruding outwardly from the sidewall, the base and the sidewall of the insulative housing cooperatively defines the mounting hole therebetween.
10. The socket as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the sidewall of the insulative housing defines a horizontal slot from a part thereof facing the base, the horizontal slot passes through a top surface of the sidewall and has arch bottom.
11. The socket as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the insulative housing further defines an upright slot communicating with the horizontal slot and passing through a bottom surface of the sidewall, the sidewall forms an accessory seat at a top part thereof above the upright slot, and a bottom seat at a bottom part thereof under the horizontal slot, so that the base, the bottom seat and the accessory seat together define the mounting hole.
