Abstract
A connector includes an insulative housing, a plurality of contacts retained in the housing, and a metallic stiffener surrounding the housing. A first pivot section and a second pivot section respectively located at opposite rear and front ends of the stiffener. A first lever is pivotally mounted upon the first pivot section and a second lever is pivotally mounted upon the second pivot section. The first lever includes a first pivot mounted upon the first pivot section, and a first handle moveable between a closed position and an open position. The first pivot includes an offset section on which a load plate is pivotally mounted. The first pivot section includes a stopper limiting outward rotation of both the first lever and the load plate at more than ninety degrees so as not to hinder loading/unloading the CPU with regard to the housing in the vertical direction.
