A connecting apparatus for detachably interconnecting two objects includes male and female structures respectively connectable to the objects. The female structure is of unitary, one-piece construction having parallel planar walls cooperating to define a receptacle therebetween, one wall having an aperture therein communicating with the receptacle and extending to a peripheral edge of the wall for opening thereat to define an entrance. An inclined flexible and resilient cam portion is laterally offset to one side of the entrance and is integral with the one wall and inclined out of the plane thereof toward the other wall. Male structure has a stud projecting therefrom with a part-circular head having a straight side and dimensioned to pass through the entrance so that, in one rotational orientation of the head, it will clear the cam portion to permit free passage into and out of the receptacle. In all other rotational orientations the head will engage the cam portion, flexing it to permit movement of the head into the receptacle, but wedging against it to inhibit movement out of the receptacle.
