<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a contact pin which can be easily molded and stabilize a resistance value, and a socket for an electrical component. <P>SOLUTION: A contact pin 18 electrically connects a wiring board P arranged at one end with an IC package 12 arranged at the other end. The contact pin 18 has a first contact member 23 contacting the wiring board P, a second contact member 24 contacting the IC package 12, and a coil spring 25 made of a conductive material energizing the first contact member 23 and the second contact member 24 in a direction for separating them. The first contact member 23 is formed by press punching molding, and has an insertion rod part 23a inserted in the coil spring 25, a contact part 23b contacting the wiring board P, and a step part 23c formed on a base end of the insertion rod part 23a and contacting an end of the coil spring 25. The step part 23c is formed such that the position of one side 23d of the first contact member 23 around an axial core O as a center is different from the position of the other side 23e in a direction of the axial core O. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
