Socket for electrical parts

摘要

A socket for electrical parts includes driving mechanisms that move pressing members from a depressed position to a retired position when an operating member is vertically shifted. The operating member includes racks each of which has rack gears in the vertical direction. Follower gears engageable with the rack gears are also provided. The follower gears have different distances from the rotational pivot to the pitch circle. When the operating member is depressed, the follower gear with a longer distance from the rotational pivot to the pitch circle is engaged with one of the rack gears.
