Abstract

A PGA socket having structure that permits the slide plate to be kept center-aligned while moving on the base housing, thus assuring that reliable electric connections be established between the PGA lead pins and the terminals of the socket. The PGA socket includes a base housing and a slide plate, the slide plate being movable between a first, or lead pin inserting position, in which the lead pins of the pin grid array package can be inserted in the through holes and the terminal mounts and a second, or locking position, in which the lead pins are applied to the terminals in the terminal mounts. The PGA socket includes at least one resilient piece on either the base housing or the slide plate and that other of the base housing or slide plate has an engagement means for receiving the at least one resilient piece. The resilient piece may be engaged with the engagement means in such a manner that the slide plate is kept aligned relative to its center when it is operated between the first position and the second position. Moreover, the PGA socket may include two resilient pieces, and the two resilient pieces may be arranged symmetrically with respect to the centerline of the base housing.

Claims

9AMENDED CLAIMS[received by the International Bureau on 10 February 2003 (10.02.03); claims 1 - 15 amended (2 pages)]
1. A socket for a pin grid array package, the pin grid array package having a plurality of lead pin, the socket comprising: a base housing, the base housing having a plurality of terminals in terminal mounts; and a slide plate, the slide plate having a plurality of through holes and being movable between a first position in which the lead pins of the pin grid array package can be inserted in the through holes and the terminal mounts and a second position in which the lead pins are applied to the terminals in the terminal mounts, wherein one of the base housing and the slide plate has a pair of resilient pieces whereas the other of the base housing and the slide plate has a projection that is received between the pair of resilient pieces.
2. The socket of claim 1, wherein the pair of resilient pieces is located on the base housing and the projection is located on the slide plate.
3. The socket of claim 2, wherein the distance between the pair of resilient pieces is less that the width of the projection.
4. The socket of claim 2, including a pair of rigid pieces located outboard of the resilient pieces.
5. The socket of claim 2, wherein the slide plate includes at least one resilient projection located on an end opposite the location of the projection, and wherein the base housing includes a recess for receiving the resilient projection.
6. The socket of claim 1, wherein the resilient pieces are engaged with the projection in such a manner so as to keep the slide plate center aligned when the slide plate is moved between the first position and the second position.
7. The socket of claim 2, wherein the projection is engaged with the resilient pieces in such a manner so as to keep the slide plate center aligned when the slide plate is moved between 10 the first position and the second position.
8. The socket of claim 1, wherein the pair of resilient pieces is located on the slide plate and the projection is located on the base housing.
9. The socket of claim 8, wherein the distance between the pair of resilient pieces is less that the width of the projection.
10. The socket of claim 8, including a pair of rigid pieces located outboard of the resilient pieces.
11. The socket of claim 8, wherein the base housing includes at least one resilient projection located on an end opposite the location of the projection, and wherein the slide plate includes a recess for receiving the resilient projection.
12. The socket of claim 8, wherein the projection is engaged with the resilient pieces in such a manner so as to keep the slide plate center aligned when the slide plate is moved between the first position and the second position.
13. The socket of claim 1 , wherein the pair of resilient pieces is arranged symmetrically with respect to a centerline of the base housing.
14. The socket of claim 2, wherein the pair of resilient pieces is arranged symmetrically with respect to a centerline of the base housing.
15. The socket of claim 8, wherein the pair of resilient pieces is arranged symmetrically with respect to a centerline of the base housing.
