Abstract: This invention provides a small lamp socket device for a panel/printed board which can be fitted from the surface of a printed board with a one-touch operation. Contact portions for a pattern face and snap portions for clamping and contacting a panel/printed board are disposed at upper and lower positions of the walls of an insulating socket main body 1, to which a small lamp is fitted, so that they protrude and oppose one another with a predetermined space between them. The snap portions have resilience so that they can come into and out from the socket main body, and the panel/printed board is clamped by the contact portions 6 and the snap portions after passing through a fitting hole of the panel/printed board.
