Abstract:
A tool () for mounting a clip () to a CPU socket () includes a body (), and a pair of feet () attached on opposite sides of the body. The body includes a handle (), a presser () for downwardly pressing the clip, and a finger () with a claw () for catching a bar () of a leg () of the clip thereby allowing the body to outwardly rotate the leg. The handle defines two first holes () for extension of two pins () therethrough. Each foot includes a connection portion () and a toe (). Two second holes () are defined in each foot, for retaining ends of the pins. The pins thereby attach the feet to the handle. The toes abut the socket, thereby allowing the tool to be safely rotated in contact with the socket.
