ABSTRACT:
A hinged cover for an electrical socket having a top plate fixed relative the socket's housing and a cover plate pivotally attached to the top plate for removably retaining an electronic package in electrical engagement with contacts within the housing by compressing the electronic package against the contacts. The top plate is fixed relative to the housing of the socket and has integrally formed hinge members and first latch portions. The cover plate is pivotally movable between an open position and a closed position. The cover plate has an integrally formed complementary hinge member that is receivable about the hinge member and a second latch portion integrally formed with the cover plate and disconnectably engageable with the first latch portion to hold the cover in the closed position, thereby enabling the cover plate to exert the necessary force against the electronic package.
