Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) This invention is designed to be inserted into a hole made in a panel, block the hole with the head, and, if necessary, be integrated into the head itself or the top surface of the head. The present invention relates to an anchor-type clip integrally formed of plastic for attaching a workpiece to the panel using a suitable holding portion provided on the panel.

(Prior Art) The above-mentioned anchor type clip is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 309387.
No. 4, as shown in Figure 6, consists of a head, a central leg hanging from the lower surface of the head, and two triangular-shaped lower ends extending diagonally upward from the left and right sides of the central leg. Book locking legs J, 3 are integrally provided, and each of the above-mentioned locking legs J has a locking slope DA on the upper part 3α with a slope opposite to that of the lower part 3b, and the hole 3 of the panel P
Push in the center leg and each locking leg 3 from the front until the head/bottom surface contacts the surface of the panel, and lock the locking slope tab at the top of each locking leg to the edge of the hole 5 from the back. This makes it impossible to connect in reverse.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) When inserting the center leg and each locking leg 3 into the hole 5 of the panel, each locking leg 3 is pushed inward by the edge of the hole until it passes through the left side of the hole. As shown in Fig. 7, the upper end of the center leg comes into contact with both sides of the center leg and stretches, so the leg J has to be pushed into the hole 5 against this tension. It takes force.

(Means for Solving the Problems) Therefore, the present invention is characterized in that a slit is provided near the boundary between the upper and lower parts of each of the locking legs, and the upper and lower parts are connected by a thin flexible part.

(When inserting the central leg and each locking leg into the hole in the panel, each locking leg is pushed by the edge of the hole and deflects inward, and when its upper end touches each side of the center leg, , after which the top of each locking leg bends at a flexible section and extends upwardly along each side of the central leg.
In the inserted state, when the locking slope of each locking leg locks with the edge of the hole from behind, the upper part of each locking leg bends and buckles at the flexible portion.

(Embodiment) Figures 1 to 5 of the housings show two embodiments of the clip of the present invention, and the same elements as the conventional clip of Figure 6.7 described above are given the same reference numerals.

As described above, the present invention provides the upper jcc and lower part 3 of each locking leg 3.
It is characterized in that a slit 6 is provided near the boundary of b, thereby connecting the upper portion 3α and the lower portion 3b with a thin flexible portion 7.

In the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, a slit 6 is provided from the inside to near the top of the triangle, and a flexible portion 7 is formed at the top of the triangle.

This allows the hole in panel P! When the upper end of each locking leg 3 comes into contact with the upper side surface of the center leg, the upper part 3α of each locking leg J having a locking slope l becomes flexible as shown in FIG. Since it bends in the missing direction at the part and extends upward along each side of the central leg, it can be inserted without requiring a large pushing force to push against the tension as in the conventional case.

In the inserted state, as shown in FIG. 4, the upper part 3a of each locking leg J having a locking slope is connected to the flexible portion 7 by the locking slope hook being locked to the edge of the hole S from the back side. Since it breaks and bends inward, it has higher resistance to pulling out than conventional ones.

In this embodiment, a hollow circular holder for holding a pipe material, bar material, wire material, etc. is integrally provided on the top surface of the head.
As shown in the conventional example shown in Fig. 6.7, the head/self may hold the groove-shaped molding 10, or a holder for holding other workpieces may be provided.

In the second embodiment shown in FIG. 5, the slit 6 is provided from the top of the triangle, contrary to the first embodiment, and the function is the same as that of the first embodiment.

(Effects) According to the present invention, it is possible to provide an anchor-type clip that requires a small pushing force during insertion and has high resistance to pulling out in the inserted state.

Claims (1)

[Scope of Claims] A head, a central leg that hangs down from the lower surface of the head, and a locking slope that extends obliquely upward from the left and right sides of the lower end of the central leg, and the upper part has a locking slope that is opposite in slope to the lower part. A plastic anchor-type clip integrally equipped with two approximately triangular locking legs, a slit is provided near the boundary between the top and bottom of each of the locking legs, and a thin-walled metal clip is formed between the top and bottom of the locking legs. An anchor type clip characterized by being connected by a flexible part.
