On the other hand, a locking end 24 formed in a rectangular frame shape is formed at the free end on the other end side of the pressing plate 3, and the locking end 24 extends along the rotation direction of the pressing plate 3. It has a first fitting piece 25 and a second fitting piece 26 formed in a radial direction at a predetermined interval, and the first fitting piece 25 and the second fitting piece 26 are formed. Can enter the gaps 13 and 14 to be locked and fitted. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the first fitting piece 25 and the second fitting piece 26 correspond to the locking portions 11b, 12b of the first locking piece 11 and the second locking piece 12, respectively. The contact portions 25a and 26a are formed by arc-shaped inclined surfaces, and the respective sliding surfaces 25b and 26b corresponding to the upper surfaces 11a and 12a of the first stopper piece 11 and the second stopper piece 12 are arc-shaped. Are formed on the inclined surface.

As shown in FIG. 2, the locking end 24 is deviated from the center line in the longitudinal direction of the pressing plate 3 toward the base end of the first stopper 11 and the second stopper 12. I have.

Further, an elastic body 31 is integrally formed between both ends of the pressing plate 3. The elastic body 31 has a long punched portion 32 formed at a central portion along the longitudinal direction, and the punched portion 32 has a connecting portion 32 connecting between both side portions 31a of the elastic body 31.

A wavy lower portion 31f is formed. A non-slip projection 34 is formed on the surface of the lower portion 31f facing the substrate 2.

Since the upper portions 31b, 31b are close to the pressing plate 3 and have a relatively large thickness, their elasticity is relatively weak. Further, the middle sections 31d, 31d are relatively far away from the pressing plate 3 and have a small thickness, so that the elasticity is stronger than that of the upper sections 31b, 31b. Further, since the lower portion 31f is farthest from the pressing plate 3 and has the thinnest and wavy shape, the maximum deformation elasticity can be obtained.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described.

First, the locking end 24 of the pressing plate 3 is
When the hair H of the user of the hair clip 1 is thick and large when engaging with the stop piece 11 and the second stop piece 12, the second fitting piece 26 is formed into a groove as shown in FIG. 7, and the second fitting piece 26 is separated from the gap 13 by the first fitting piece 11 and the second fitting piece 12.
When the elastic member 31 is positioned between the elastic members 31, the elastic member 31 receives a pushing-up biasing force generated from the hair H, and the first stopper 11 has a locking action. Further, the first fitting piece 25 is located above the first fitting piece 11.

When the first fitting piece 25 is positioned above the first fitting piece 11, the locking end 24 is moved from the center line of the pressing plate 3 to the first position.
Since the stop piece 11 is formed near the base end of the stop piece 11, the biasing force is naturally applied to the first fitting piece 25 by its deflecting action and elasticity at the moment it is located at the upper portion, and the first stop piece 25 The piece 11 moves in the proximal direction. At the same time, the second fitting piece 26 is
b, it is possible to freely slide on the upper surface 12a of the second stopper piece 12, and the contact portion of the second fitting piece 26
Since the resistance by the locking portion 11b of the first stopper 11 when entering the gap 13 is reduced by 26a, the second stopper 26 is
The locking position can be automatically and smoothly entered. Further, in the locked state, the locking portion 11b of the first stopper 11 is
Abutment portions 26a of the fitting pieces 26 are tightly engaged with each other, and the elastic body 31 receives a push-up elastic urging force generated from the hair H bundle.

Therefore, in the state where the hair clip 1 is used, the elastic body 31 is in contact with the hair H with gentle, uniform, reliable and appropriate pressure, and the hair H is damaged by the lower portion 31f having the maximum elastic deformation. In addition to this, the deformation of the pressing plate 3 can be prevented by the upper steps 31b, 31b having a small deformation elasticity.

That is, as shown in FIG. 7, the hair H is sandwiched between the elastic body 31 and the substrate 2, and the elastic body 31 is pressed by the hair H against the elastic body 31 so that the elastic body 31 As shown by, compression deformation is performed from the free state to the position shown by the solid line. At this time, the pressing plate 3 bends and deforms in the direction of the substrate 2 and presses the locking end 24 upward in the outward direction to further enhance the engagement effect.

When viewed from the direction in which the hair H extends, that is, from the cross-sectional direction of the hair clip 1, the hair H interposed and held between the elastic body 31 and the substrate 2, as shown in FIG.
The projections 17a of the slip portions 17 of the substrate 2 project toward the punched portions 32 of the elastic body 31, and the projections of the slip portions 16 on both sides of the substrate 2.
Since the projection 16a protrudes from the outer surface of the elastic body 31, it extends in a wave shape, and the elastic body 31 and the projection 16a of the substrate 2, the non-slip projection 34,
The protrusion 17a is sandwiched between the non-slip protrusion 34 and the protrusion 16a.
