Abstract
A socket is adapted for electrically connecting a chip module and a printed circuit board, and the socket includes a main body having a base and a plurality of contacts arranged in the base for resiliently contacting with the chip module, wherein the base includes a foundation and two lateral sidewalls extending from the foundation; an upper lid movably connecting to the main body; and a lock member securing the upper lid and the main body together. Each of the two lateral sidewalls has a projection disposed on at least one corner of an upper surface thereof for abutting against the upper lid.

A socket adapted for an electrical connection between a chip module and a printed circuit board, comprising:
- a main body having a base and a plurality of contacts arranged on the base for resiliently contacting the chip module, wherein the base includes a foundation having two lateral sidewalls extending upwardly from a periphery of the foundation;
- an upper lid movably connected to the main body;
- and
- a lock member adapted for securing the upper lid and the main body;
- wherein the foundation further includes two projections disposed diagonally, a first of the two projections being arranged on a front end of an upper surface of a respective one of the lateral sidewalls, and a second of said projections being arranged on a rear end of an upper surface of the other lateral sidewall so that the two projections abut against the upper lid.
A socket adapted for an electrical connection between a chip module and a printed circuit board, and comprising:
- a main body having a base and a plurality of contacts arranged on the base for resiliently touching the chip module, wherein the base includes a foundation, two lateral sidewalls extending upwards from a peripheral of the foundation, and a cavity defined by the foundation and the two lateral sidewalls for receiving the chip module;
- an upper lid connecting the main body movably;
- and
- a lock member being capable of securing the upper lid and the main body;
- wherein the foundation further includes at least two projections disposed diagonally;
- a first one is arranged on a front end of an upper surface of a respective one of the lateral sidewalls, and a second one is arranged on a rear end of an upper surface of the other lateral sidewall, so that the two projections abut against the upper lid while the chip module is received inside the cavity.
