Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A socket includes a first base member that includes a module mount unit allowing a module including an imaging device and an object to be placed thereon and an electric connector that electrically connects the imaging device to an external apparatus, a second base member having an opening, and an engagement unit that causes the first base member to be engaged with the second base member under a condition that the module placed on the module mount unit is sandwiched by the first and second base members. When the first base member is engaged with the second base member by the engagement unit under a condition that the module placed on the module mount unit is sandwiched by the first base member and the second base member, the electric connector is electrically connected to the imaging device, and the object receives illumination light from a light source through the opening.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An assembly jig comprising: a bottom plate including a first holding portion that allows a support plate to be placed thereon; a wall portion that extends upward from the bottom plate in a direction perpendicular to the bottom plate; and a movable portion that has a rotation axis perpendicular to the wall portion and that is connected to the wall portion in a slidable manner in a direction perpendicular to the bottom plate, the movable portion including a second holding portion that allows a presser to be inserted thereinto, wherein the assembly jig has a first state in which the bottom plate is parallel to the movable portion and a second state in which the movable portion is rotated about the rotation axis from the first state at an angle greater than or equal to 90° and less than or equal to 180°, and wherein in one of the first state and the second state, the movable portion is located so that the first holding portion is disposed on top of the second holding portion.
