Socket for electric parts
A socket for electric parts which is dawn sized. The socket of the present invention has a socket body, contact pins to conduct to an electric part, a latch rotatably located on the socket body so as to positioned above the contact pins, which presses the electric part when the latch is closed and is in a state the electric part can be accommodated and taken out when the latch is opened, and an operating member vertically movably disposed in the socket body and has an operating portion for opening constituted so as to press down an operation portion to be operated for opening formed to the latch and rotate the latch in an opening direction when the operating member descends. An outermost position of the latch is disposed on an inside of outermost portion of the contact pins when the latch is opened to an outermost position.
1. A socket for electric parts comprising:
a socket body which has a rectangle shape and has an accommodation surface to accommodate an electric parts having a rectangle shape and a lower surface to which terminals are provided;
plural contact pins of horseshoe-shapes, which are disposed in parallel and at predetermined intervals to a peripheral edge of the socket body, and each of which has an elastic piece to contact with the terminals of the electric part,
a latch rotatably disposed on the socket body so as to positioned above the contact pins, which presses an upper part of peripheral portion of the electric part when the latch is closed and is in a state the electric part is able to be accommodated onto and taken out from the accommodation surface when the latch is opened,
an operating member which is vertically movably disposed in the socket body, and comprises an operating portion for opening constituted so as to press down an operation portion to be operated for opening of the latch and rotate the latch in an opening direction when the operating member moves downward,
wherein a most outside position of the latch is disposed on an inside of most outside portion of the contact pins when the latch is opened to an outermost position.
2. The socket for electric parts according to claim 1 , wherein the most outside position of the latch is defined by the operation portion to be operated for opening.
3. The socket for electric parts according to claim 1 , wherein the rotation shaft of the latch is positioned below the accommodation surface of the socket body.
4. The socket for electric parts according to claim 1 , wherein the operation portion to be operated for opening formed at a rear end side of the latch has a surface which faces the contact pins and curves along the curved-shape of the contact pins.
