SOCKET WITH AN IMPROVED COVER LID

摘要

A socket (100) comprises an insulative housing (1) with a number of passageways (13) thereon. A number of contacts are received in the passageways. A cover lid (3) rotationally is assembled to the housing to be in an open position or a closed position. The cover lid comprises a latch member (31) integrally molded thereon to reduce the component of the socket, and the insulative housing forms a step portion (15) for mating with the latch member to keep the cover lid in the closed position.
