The four corners of theframe 1 are provided with afirst screw hole 18 respectively. The fourfirst screw holes 18 penetrate the top and bottom surfaces of theframe 1. - The
pressing assembly 2 comprises acover 21 and abuckling piece 22. Thecover 21 is pivotally connected on theframe 1. Thebuckling piece 22 is used to lock thecover 21 on theframe 1. - One end of the
cover 21 is pivotally connected to one end of theframe 1. Thecover 21 has a pair ofholes 211, a pair of firstpivotal holes 212, and a plurality ofabutting portions 213. The pair ofholes 211 is provided on one end of thecover 21. The pair ofholes 211 is connected onto the connectingportions 17 at one end of theframe 1, so that thecover 21 can rotate on theframe 1. The top surface of thecover 21 abuts on the abuttingportion 14 to limit the rotating range of thecover 2. The pair of firstpivotal holes 212 is provided on both sides of the other end of thecover 21, thereby pivotally connecting to thebuckling piece 22. Theabutting portions 213 are formed by means of protruding downwards from the bottom surface of thecover 21. - The
buckling piece 22 is pivotally connected to the other end of thecover 21. Thebuckling piece 22 has apivoting plate 221 and arocking plate 222. Thepivoting plate 221 has atongue 2211 and a pair of secondpivotal holes 2212. Thetongue 2211 extends from thepivoting plate 221 to correspond to theblocking plate 15.

FIG. 3 , both sides of thecover 21 overlap the partitioningwalls 13 on both sides of theframe 1. Thetongue 2211 of thebuckling piece 22 can be blocked in the opening 151. Therocking plate 222 can be pressed and locked in thelocking portion 16 by using thetongue 2211 as a fulcrum. In this way, thecover 21 can be firmly pressed on theframe 1. - The
circuit board 4 has a plurality of second screw holes 41. The bottom end of thecircuit board 4 is provided with aback plate 5. Theback plate 5 is provided with a plurality of third screw holes 51 to correspond to the second screw holes 41. The first screw holes 18 of theframe 1 are aligned with the second and third screw holes 41, 51 andscrews 6 are inserted therein, thereby connecting thecircuit board 4 with theback plate 5. - Incidentally, the
back plate 5 is removable. Thescrew 6 passes through theframe 1 and thecircuit board 4 directly and thus is locked on a housing (not shown) or secured by a nut. - Referring to
FIGS. 4 and 5 , when theframe 1 is to be disposed on thecircuit board 4, since theprotrusions 12 on one end and both sides of theframe 1 are provided corresponding to the outer peripheral surface of thesocket connector 3, theframe 1 can be aligned with thesocket connector 3 accurately to be disposed on thecircuit board 4. Thesocket connector 3 further supports a chip module (not shown). The abuttingportion 213 of thecover 21 abuts the chip module on thesocket connector 3 so as to be locked and covered thereon. - Referring to
FIGS. 6 and 7 , one end of theframe 1 extends to form an abuttingportion 14 and a pair of hookingportions 19. The hookingportion 19 has anopening 191. One end of thecover 21 extends to form a pair ofhooks 214 and astopper 215. The pair ofhooks 214 is inserted in theopenings 191 of the hookingportion 19, so that the one end of thecover 21 can be pivotally connected with one end of theframe 1 in a rotatable way. Thestopper 215 is stopped by the abuttingportion 14, thereby limiting the rotating range of thecover 21. - The buckling
piece 22 is pivotally connected to the other end of theframe 1. The other end of theframe 1 has a pair of reversely-foldedportions 20. The reversely-foldedportion 20 has a throughhole 201. The bucklingpiece 22 is an integral rod, which has a pivotingrod 223 and a rockingrod 224. The pivotingrod 223 has apressing portion 2231 and pivotingportions 2232 formed on both sides of thepressing portion 2231. The twopivoting portions 2232 are pivotally provided in the two throughholes 201. Thepressing portion 2231 is provided between the two reversely-foldedportions 20. - Incidentally, the way of pivotally connecting the
frame 1, thecover 21 and the bucklingpiece 22 is not limited to the means disclosed herein, but other suitable connecting means can be used. - The other end of the
cover 21 extends to form an extendingportion 216. Thepressing portion 2231 exerts a force on the extendingportion 216 by means of rotating the rockingrod 224. The rockingrod 224 is locked to the lockingportion 16, thereby pressing thecover 21 on theframe 1. - According to the above, when the
socket connector 3 is firmly soldered to thecircuit board 4, theframe 1 is disposed on thecircuit board 4 to surround the outer peripheral surface of thesocket connector 3. Since theprotrusions 12 of theframe 1 can be disposed outside thesocket connector 3 quickly and accurately, the inner edge surface of theframe 1 is flush with the outer peripheral surface of thesocket connector 3. In this way, thepressing assembly 2 of theframe 1 can be operated accurately to lock and press the chip module on thesocket connector 1. - While a preferred embodiment of the invention is shown and described, it is envisioned that those skilled in the art may devise various modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the foregoing description and the appended claims.
