ABSTRACT:
An IC retainer in an IC socket comprise a lock lever for engaging and disengaging from an IC or an IC carrier in accordance with upward and downward motion of a cover, a turnable lever for transforming the upward and downward motion of the cover to upward and downward motion of the lock lever, a mechanism for shifting the lock lever to a backward disengaging position when the lock lever is moved upwardly and to a forward engaging position when the lock lever is lowered, and a spring arrangement for applying a downward turning force to an external end portion of the turnable lever while applying a lowering force to that side of the lock lever on which the external end portion of the turnable lever acts. An internal end portion of the turnable lever opposite to that end portion on which the spring arrangement acts is turned upwardly by the downward turning force applied to the external end portion of the turnable lever, so that an upwardly directed force is applied to the cover.
