ABSTRACT:
A socket for an electrical part comprises a socket body, a contact pin disposed to the socket body, a movable member mounted on the socket body and adapted to displace the contact pin, and an operation unit for moving the movable member to thereby displace the contact pin. When the contact pin is displaced, a terminal having a spherical outer shape of an electrical part is fitted to the socket body with the terminal being in non-contact state to clamping pieces of the contact pin and when the movable member is returned to an original position before movement therebetween, the displacement of the contact pin is released and the terminal of the electrical part contacts an contacting portion of a contact pin to thereby establish an electrical connection therebetween. The direction of the displacement of the contacting portion of the contact pin is set to a direction oblique to a moving direction of the movable member.
