Abstract

A socket (100) of the present invention includes a base member (20), a cover member (30), a plurality of contacts (40), a latch member (60A) that is rotatably supported by the base member (20) and rotates in response to movement of the cover member (30), an adaptor (50) providing a mounting surface for an IC package and attached with the base member (20) so as to move in an up and down direction in response to the movement of the cover member (30), and a latch plate (200) rotatably attached with the adaptor (50A) and urged by an elastic member. The adaptor (50A) is formed with a latch guide (58) that moves the latch plate (200) in the vertical direction when the latch plate (200) presses the IC package.
