ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a cover for use in automatically mounting electric connectors to a printed-circuit board with the aid of a vacuum-suction nozzle. The cover comprises a top plate to which the vacuum-suction nozzle can be applied, and opposite hooks integrally connected to the opposite ends of the top plate which catch the opposite side walls of the connector housing. The fitting cover may be easily attached to an electric connector having pin-like terminals projecting from its upper surface to cover the pin-like terminals of the electric connector. The attaching of the fitting cover to the electric connector will provide a smooth, flat surface to the connector-and-cover combination, thereby facilitating the use of the vacuum suction nozzle to hold electrical connectors regardless of the contour of their upper surface.
