Abstract
Described herein is a light emitting diode holder, including a seat block with lead wire holes widened toward the top surface of the block, and confronting pairs of gripper arms on opposite sides of the seat block and provided with locking projections at the upper ends thereof. The LED holder permits insertion of external lead wires of a light emitting diode in sockets on a circuit board, and is capable of securely holding a light emitting portion of the diode in position. Fixation of a light emitting diode on the holder can be confirmed by a click sound from the gripper arms.
