Definitions

  • the invention refers to an improved double-mouth clip, with the peculiarity that it clamps by both ends and presents a symmetrical structure, both longitudinally and cross-sectionally.
  • An outer slot is incorporated by each piece perpendicular to the teeth and corresponding to the central area, in order to insert either the ends of a wire spring or a strap, band or ring made of an elastomeric material, which forms the spring which keeps the clip closed by its both ends, so that when one of the ends is pressed, the other one opens, and vice versa.
  • the clip although it incorporates a great number of advantages compared with the traditional ones, presents the problem that, after a sustained use of it, one of the pieces moves sideways with respect to the other one. In certain circumstances, both pieces may become disengaged and, while it is easy to place them again in position, it is very upsetting for the user.
  • the clip claimed herein solves this problem satisfactorily in an efficient and simple manner.
  • each piece incorporates between the last teeth of one of its ends a projection laid transversally to such teeth, while on the last tooth of the opposite end it has been foreseen a recess to house such projection so that when both pieces of the clip join, due to the opposite laying, the projections of one side will be housed inside the recesses of the other, and vice versa, thereby producing a cross-sectional interlocking of both pieces, preventing them to move sideways.
  • the inner face of the element (1) is projected divergently, i.e., as a wedge (5) determining the clamping sections for the opening of the clip.
  • Such sections incorporate on their outer face grooves or low-reliefs (6) intended to avoid slippages.
  • Each piece (1) incorporates between the last teeth of one end a projection (7) transversally laid on with respect to such teeth.
  • projections (7) match a recess or housing (8) foreseen at the last tooth of the opposite end.
  • the outer surface opposite to the toothed area (2) may be slightly concave with parallel grooves near the ends, thereby facilitating the clip gripping by the user.
