Description

  The present invention relates to a clip and a writing instrument having the clip. In particular, the present invention relates to a clip composed of two members, a clip member and an elastic member, and a writing instrument having the clip.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a clip composed of two members, a clip member and an elastic member, is known as a clip that is used by being attached to a cylinder such as a writing tube, an applicator, a cosmetic tool, or a cylinder.

  One of the functions of the clip is to hold an object to be clamped such as clothes and hold the writing instrument etc. on the object to be clamped. For this purpose, the clip needs to have elasticity. When the clip is constituted by a single member, it is necessary to give elasticity to the clip body, and therefore, the portion corresponding to the clip member must be made thin and flat.

  On the other hand, as another function of the clip, there is a case where the clip itself, by extension, a writing instrument to which the clip is attached has a high-class feeling. In the case where the clip is constituted by a single member, the shape of the portion corresponding to the clip member is limited as described above, so that a high-class feeling cannot be obtained. Therefore, by configuring the clip with two members and giving the elastic member elasticity, it can be made into a shape that cannot give the clip member sufficient elasticity, for example, a thick rounded shape, Thereby, it becomes possible to give a high-class feeling.

  As such a clip, for example, a clip for a writing instrument has been proposed which includes a spring body having a mounting portion in which a locking hole is drilled and a bowl-shaped clip rod projecting a holding piece (for example, , See Patent Document 1). In this writing instrument clip, the attachment part of the spring body is inserted into the back side of the holding piece of the clip か ら from the tip end direction of the clip 、, the holding piece is bent into the locking hole, and the spring body is fixed to the clip 扞By doing so, it is formed integrally.

Moreover, it is a metal clip composed of two members, a clip part and an elastic part, and the elastic part is overlapped on the back surface of the clip part, and the inner sides of both sides of the back surface of the clip part are crushed toward the elastic part. There has been proposed a method in which a fixing portion that sandwiches both side edges of the elastic portion is formed by processing, and thereby the elastic portion is attached to the clip portion (see, for example, Patent Document 2).
Japanese Utility Model Publication 3-7181 JP 2005-131817 A

  When attaching the elastic member 2 to the clip member 1, as shown in FIG. 7A, the attachment portion of the elastic member 2 from the rear surface rear end side of the clip member 1 toward the front end direction (the black arrow direction in the figure). 23 is inserted. The elastic member 2 is inserted in a state where the open front end portion 27 of the attachment portion 23 is in sliding contact with the back surface of the clip member 1 (FIG. 7C).

  When the elastic member 2 is inserted to the position shown in FIG. 7B, the inclined portion 26 comes into contact with the rear end portion of the locking piece 13c. This creates resistance in the insertion direction and prevents insertion. When a force is further applied in the distal direction against this resistance, a downward force is applied to the open front end portion 27 with the contact portion between the inclined portion 26 and the locking piece 13c as a fulcrum, and the elastic member 2 is caused by its own elasticity. Deform. By this deformation, the difference in height between the rear end side and the front end side of the inclined portion 26 is reduced, and the elastic member 2 can be continuously inserted in the front end direction.

  When the elastic member 2 is further inserted, the elastic member 2 reaches the position shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, and the elastic member 2 tries to return to the original shape by the restoring force at this position. The front end portion 27 and the top portion 22a of the curved portion 22 come into contact with each other, and an upward pressure (in the directions of arrows I and II in FIG. 9) is applied to the clip member 1 (FIGS. 10A and 10E). On the other hand, the back surface of the mounting portion 23 comes into contact with the locking pieces 13a and 13c (FIGS. 10B and 10D), and a downward pressure (in the direction of arrow III in FIG. 9) is applied to the clip member 1. As a result, the elastic member 2 is locked to the clip member 1 in a state of being sandwiched between the back surface of the clip member 1 and the locking portion 13. Further, the elastic member 2 is positioned with respect to the clip member 1 in the vertical direction (the vertical direction in FIG. 9).

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, the locking piece 13b is fitted in the fitting recess 24 in this state (FIG. 10C). Further, the side surfaces of the locking step portions 25a and 25b are in contact with the front end side surface of the locking piece 13a and the rear end side surface of the locking piece 13c, respectively. As a result, the elastic member 2 is positioned relative to the clip member 1 in the front-rear direction (insertion direction, left-right direction in FIG. 9).

  Further, the wide portions 28a and 28b are sandwiched between the side walls of the surface portion 11 of the clip member 1, and the locking pieces 13b fitted into the fitting recesses 24 sandwich the side surfaces of the fitting recesses 24 (FIG. 10 ( c)). Furthermore, the top part 22a of the bending part 22 is clamped by the surface part 11 side wall (FIG.10 (e)).

  Next, the elastic member 2 will be described.

  14 is a plan view of the elastic member 2, FIG. 15 is a central cross-sectional view of the elastic member 2, FIG. 16A is an end view taken along line LL in FIGS. 14 and 15, and FIG. FIG. 16 is a cross-sectional end view taken along line MM in FIG. 15.

  The attachment portion 223 has a fitting groove 224 into which the third locking piece 213c is fitted, as will be described later. The attachment portion 223 is provided with two extending portions 225 extending in the distal direction, the front end of the extending portion 225 is bent upward, and a protrusion 226 is formed on the inner surface of the extending portion 225. It is arranged. The inner width of the extending portion 225 is substantially equal to the width of the first locking piece 213a.

  Next, a procedure for attaching the elastic member 2 to the clip member 1 will be described.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram illustrating a procedure for attaching the elastic member 2 to the clip member 1. 18 is a bottom view showing the state after attachment, and FIG. 19 is a central cross-sectional view showing the state after attachment. 20A is an end view taken along the line NN in FIGS. 18 and 19, FIG. 20B is an end view taken along the line OO in FIGS. 18 and 19, and FIG. 18 and 19 is a cross-sectional end view taken along the line P-P in FIG. 18, and FIG. 20D is a cross-sectional end view taken along the line Q-Q in FIGS.

  When attaching the elastic member 2 to the clip member 1, as shown in FIG. 17, the attachment portion 223 of the elastic member 2 is inserted from the back rear end side of the clip member 1 toward the front end direction (the arrow direction in the figure). To go. The elastic member 2 is inserted in a state where the front end of the extending portion 225 of the attachment portion 223 is in sliding contact with the back surface of the clip member 1.

  Since the front end of the extension part 225 is bent upward, the back surface of the extension part 225 abuts on the rear end part of the first locking piece 213a. This creates resistance in the insertion direction and prevents insertion. Therefore, a downward force is applied to the rear portion of the elastic member 2 with the contact portion between the back surface of the extending portion 225 and the rear end portion of the first locking piece 213a as a fulcrum, so that the elastic member 2 is bent and deformed. By deforming the elastic member 2 using the elasticity of the elastic member 2 in this manner, the back surface of the extending portion 225 and the rear end portion of the first locking piece 213a can be slid in a state of being in close contact with each other, Continued insertion in the distal direction is possible.

  When the elastic member 2 is further inserted in the distal direction, the protruding portion 226 disposed on the inner side surface of the extending portion 225 comes into contact with the rear end side surface of the second locking piece 213b, and insertion is suppressed. Here, when a force is further applied in the distal direction, the second locking piece 213b is slightly deformed by the protrusion 226 so as to close in the center line direction. Thereby, the further insertion to the front-end | tip direction of the elastic member 2 is attained.

  When further inserted, the third locking piece 213c is fitted into the fitting groove 224 (FIG. 20 (c)). When the elastic member 2 reaches the position shown in FIG. 18 and FIG. 19, the elastic member 2 tries to return to the original shape by its restoring force. The top portion 22a of the portion 22 comes into contact, and an upward pressure (in the directions of arrows I and II in FIG. 19) is applied to the clip member 1 (FIGS. 20A and 20D). On the other hand, the back surfaces of the attachment portion 223 and the extension portion 225 abut against the locking piece 213a (FIGS. 20B and 20C), and the downward pressure (in the direction of arrow III in FIG. 19) is applied to the clip member 1. It takes. Accordingly, the elastic member 2 is sandwiched between the back surface of the clip member 1 and the first locking piece 213a. The elastic member 2 is sandwiched between the first locking piece 213a and the third locking piece 213c (FIG. 20C). Thereby, the elastic member 2 is locked to the clip member 1. Further, the elastic member 2 is positioned with respect to the clip member 1 in the vertical direction (the vertical direction in FIG. 19).

  Further, in this embodiment, when the protruding portion 226 passes through the second locking piece 213b and the elastic member 2 reaches the position shown in FIGS. 18 and 19, the second locking piece 213b has its restoring force. Thus, it returns to its original state and comes into contact with the inner surface of the extending portion 225 (FIG. 20B). Further, the side surfaces of the extension portion 225 and the top portion 22a of the bending portion 22 are in contact with the side wall of the surface portion 11 respectively. Thereby, positioning of the elastic member 2 with respect to the clip member 1 in the left-right direction (the front-rear direction in FIG. 19) is performed.

  In this state, the rear end surface of the protrusion 226 contacts the front end surface of the second locking piece 213b, and the front end surface of the mounting portion 223 contacts the rear end surface of the second locking piece 213b. As a result, the elastic member 2 is positioned relative to the clip member 1 in the front-rear direction (insertion direction, left-right direction in FIG. 19).

  As described above, the elastic member 2 is positioned in the up / down / front / rear / left / right directions with respect to the clip member 1, and the elastic member 2 is fixed to the clip member 1.
