ABSTRACT:
Quick-release connecting apparatus for mounting an object on a belt includes male and female members, respectively attachable to the object and the belt. The male member has a stud projecting therefrom with a teardrop-shaped button or flange at its distal end which has the same configuration as a teardrop-shaped opening in the front surface of the female member, which opening communicates with a circular recess in the rear of the female member and larger than the opening. The button is insertable axially through the opening and into the recess, permitting rotation of the male member about 180.degree. to an attached position wherein the button engages the bearing surface at three spaced-apart locations. The stud has arcuate surfaces which can engage the edges of the opening when the male member is disposed in the recess for inhibiting translational movement of the male member except during insertion into and withdrawal from the opening.
