Socket for electronic module

Abstract

In the socket (41), a receiving section is formed by a circumferential wall (12) and a restricting section that defines the position of the counter module (M) when it is placed in the receiving section. The latching member (20) is formed by directly forming or attaching to the circumferential wall an elastic bar that extends in the circumferential direction of the circumferential wall. The latching member (20) has a securing section and a latching section (23) that elastically displaces outward of the circumferential wall by flexion of the elastic bar, and the securing section and the latching section are provided away from each other in the circumferential direction.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a socket for an electronic module. Background technique [0002] When connecting an electronic module with a built-in predetermined electronic circuit or parts to the circuit substrate, the module is not directly welded to the circuit substrate, but the socket is soldered to the circuit substrate, and then the above-mentioned module is inserted into the socket, The terminals are connected in contact with each other. This is in consideration of not causing damage due to the heat during welding when some parts in the module are weak to heat. [0003] Such a socket is disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example. [0004] The socket of Patent Document 1 such as Figure 13 As shown, it is made of insulating material, and the receiving recess 53 that can accommodate the electronic module M from above is formed by using the bottom wall 51 and the surrounding wall 52 . A plurality of terminals 54 are mounted on opposing wall portion...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0008] In the socket of Patent Document 1, the locking arm extends from the upper surface of the bottom wall of the socket, so the length of the locking arm is below the height of the peripheral wall of the socket. In today's demand for thinner , the snap wrist does not ensure sufficient elasticity

That is to say, the elasticity of the claw of the locking wrist is not strong enough, so the insertion force when inserting the module needs to be very large, there will be too much force acting on the locking wrist, which may damage it

[0009] And if the height of the above-mentioned surrounding wall is kept and only the locking wrist is increased, the height of the socket will be increased only because of the locking wrist, which will cause inconvenience in operation.
