ABSTRACT:
A socket for use in mounting of an electrical part with lead members has a main base member with contact elements secured therein and a reciprocating cover member movable up and down with respect to said base member and including a cam member adapted to engage said contact elements so that as said cover member moves from a first original position to a second position and back again the contact elements likewise move from the first position to a second position and then back again to the first position. This movement allows the insertion of the electrical part into the socket and the contacting of the contact elements with the lead members. The base member further includes at least 2 surfaces positioned along with a mounting surface so that the electrical part when mounted is guided into proper mounting position and maintains this position after contacting by contact members so that accurate contacting can be made between the contact elements of the socket and the terminal parts of the electrical part without the need of a latch mechanism.
