Connector coupling apparatus

A connector coupling apparatus, comprising:

• a holder having a body formed in a shape of a substantially rectangular cylinder with four walls, two of which are opposed to each other and which have a pair of slits forming a flexible arm therebetween;
• a male connector adapted to be engaged in the holder by each flexible arm in the two of the four walls of the holder;
• and
• a female connector adapted to be fitted into the male connector;
• wherein each flexible arm has a protrusion so as to project therefrom and to engage the male connector;
• wherein the male connector has four walls, two of which are opposed to each other, each of the two walls of the male connector having a second pair of slits forming a separate flexible engaging piece that fits into and is released from the protrusion of each flexible arm of the holder;
• wherein the female connector has a pair of projections, each of which corresponds to the protrusion and the flexible engaging piece;
• wherein the protrusion comes in contact with the flexible engaging piece so as to prevent the male connector from fitting into the holder;
• and
• wherein, when the female connector fits into the male connector, the projection deforms the protrusion so as to part from the flexible engaging piece, whereby the protrusion permits the male connector to fit into the holder.
