[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a clip for inserting memo paper or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional clip shown in FIG. 7 is well known. In this clip 21, a pair of clip pieces 21a and 21b are connected by a pin 22, a spring 23 is attached to the pin 22, and the leading ends of the clip pieces 21a and 21b are brought into contact with the urging force of the spring 23 to be pinched. This constitutes the unit 24.

[0003]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The above conventional clip 2
1 requires a separate member such as a pin 22 or a spring 23 for manufacturing, which increases the cost. In addition, the clip pieces 21a and 21b have a T-shape in plan view, and the knobs 25 are widened in the vertical direction. is there.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a clip which can be mass-produced at low cost with a small number of members and which can be compactly stored when not in use.

[0005]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention comprises a clip body and a storage frame,
The clip body is overlapped with a pair of clip pieces, one end of which is brought into contact with each other to form a holding portion, and the other end is separated from each other to form a knob portion. And the length thereof is set to be longer than the width of the storage frame, and the storage frame is configured by fixing both ends of a pair of elastic pieces. The structure that supports it rotatably was adopted.

[0006]

[Function] When the clip body is rotated so that the clip piece is oriented perpendicular to the elastic piece of the storage frame, and the knob is sandwiched, the elastic pieces of the storage frame are pushed apart from each other, and the clip portion of the clip body is gripped. Opens. In this state, a memo sheet or the like is inserted between the clip pieces.

When the clipping of the knob of the clip body is stopped, the clipping portion of the clip body closes due to the elasticity of the elastic piece of the storage frame, and the memo paper or the like is pinched.

When not in use, the clip body is rotated so that the clip pieces are parallel to the elastic pieces of the storage frame and housed in the storage frame.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS As shown in FIG. 1, a clip according to the present invention comprises a clip body 1 and a storage frame 2 made of synthetic resin.

As shown in FIG. 2, the clip body 1 is provided with a small projection 4 and a fitting hole 5 substantially at the center of the inner surfaces of a pair of clip pieces 3, respectively. As shown in FIG. 1, one end of the fitting is brought into contact with each other to form a holding portion 1a, and the other end is separated from each other to form a knob portion 1b.

A shaft hole 6 is provided at the center of both outer surfaces of the clip body 1, and a concave step 7 in the length direction passing through the shaft hole 6 is provided.

The size of the clip body 1 is set to a size that fits in the storage frame 2, and the length thereof is set longer than the width of the storage frame 2.

As shown in FIG. 1, the housing frame 2 has a pair of elastic pieces 2a and 2b fixed at both ends by short pieces 2c. At the center of the inner surfaces of the two elastic pieces 2a and 2b of the storage frame 2, a rotary shaft 8 that fits into the shaft hole 6 protrudes.

On one elastic piece 2a of the housing frame 2, locking projections 9 aligned with the rotating shaft 8 are provided in front and rear at a required interval, and are provided on the surface of the other elastic piece 2b. Has a double-sided tape 10 adhered thereto as shown in FIGS.

As shown by arrows in FIG. 1, the clip body 1 has elastic steps 2a, 2a,
b, the rotating shaft 8 protruding from the inner surface of each elastic piece 2a, 2b fits into the shaft hole 6,
The clip body 1 is rotatably supported in the middle of the storage frame 2 (see FIG. 3).

When the clip body 1 is rotated 90 degrees about the rotation shaft 8, the locking projections 9 protruding from the inner surface of the elastic piece 2a of the storage frame 2 have a slight click feeling, and It fits into the concave step 7. In this manner, the rotation of the clip body 1 is restricted, and the clip body 1 is stored in the storage frame 2 as shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 5, the clip constructed as described above is fixed to, for example, a dashboard 11 of an automobile by the double-sided tape 10.

As shown by an arrow in FIG.
Is rotated so that the clip piece 3 is oriented perpendicular to the elastic pieces 2a and 2b, and when the knob 1b is sandwiched, the elastic pieces 2a and 2b of the storage frame 2 are pushed apart from each other, and the clip body 1 The holding portion 1a opens. In this state, for example, a delivery slip 12 is inserted between the clip pieces 3.

When the gripping of the knob 1b of the clip body 1 is stopped, the elasticity of the elastic pieces 2a and 2b closes the clamping section 1a of the clip body 1 and the delivery slip 12 is sandwiched.

Next, a second embodiment of the clip according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The components having the same configuration and operation as those of the above-described first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted.

This clip is composed of the clip body 1 and the storage frame 13, and the width of the center of the elastic pieces 13a and 13b of the storage frame 13 is smaller than the width of both ends. In this way, when the knob 1b of the clip body 1 is clamped by applying the same force as in the first embodiment, the clamping portion 1a can be opened more widely, so that the memo paper or the like can be easily clamped. be able to.

In each of the above embodiments, two locking projections 9 are provided on the inner surfaces of the elastic pieces 2a, 13a of the storage frames 2, 13 in order to restrict the rotation of the clip body 1. . However, the locking projections 9 need not always be provided, and a configuration in which only one locking projection 9 is provided may be employed. Alternatively, the locking projections 9 are
, Only the elastic pieces 2b, 13b are provided.
It is also possible to adopt a configuration provided on both the elastic piece 13a and the elastic pieces 2b and 13b.

[0023]

As described above, the clip according to the present invention supports the clip body in which the pair of clip pieces are overlapped with each other in the middle of the storage frame constituted by fixing both ends of the pair of elastic pieces. Thus, unlike the conventional products, fine separate members such as pins and springs are not required, and mass production can be performed at low cost.

Also, since the clip main body is rotatably supported by the storage frame, the clip main body can be stored in the storage frame, so that the shape is interesting and compact when not in use. Thereby, even when a plurality of clips are stored in a drawer of a desk or the like, they can be neatly arranged or stacked.
