Abstract: A cushion clip may include an engagement leg that is capable of being attached to either one of a fixed member or a movable member moving toward and away from the fixed member; and a cushion that is capable of being elastically deformed by a load applied from the movable member moving toward the fixed member, thereby absorbing impact caused by movement of the movable member. The cushion has a hollow barrel shape such that an intermediate portion positioned between a bottom portion connected to the engagement leg and a top portion positioned opposite to the bottom portion is circumferentially expanded to a maximum circumference.

Abstract: A watertight clip may include a watertight clip main body and a packing. The watertight clip main body has a stabilizer, a pillar extending from the stabilizer, engagement legs formed in the pillar, and a packing retainer member. When the pillar is inserted into an attaching hole formed in a plate-shaped subject member, the subject member is positioned between the engagement legs and the stabilizer, so that an attached member connected to the stabilizer can be attached to the subject member. The packing is previously attached to the pillar. The packing is interleaved between the subject member and the stabilizer. The packing retainer member is configured to prevent the packing from separating from the pillar.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention may include a clip mounting seat having a clip attachment surface, a peripheral wall and an opening. The peripheral wall extends from the clip attachment surface. The opening opens a part of an outer peripheral edge of the clip attachment surface. The clip attachment surface has an attachment hole, a guide groove and a tongue. The guide groove guides an insertion of a neck portion of the clip from the opening into the attachment hole. The tongue protrudes from an edge of the guide groove towards the attachment hole. The tongue is deflected to permit the neck portion to enter from the opening into the attachment hole. When the neck portion moves from the attachment hole toward the opening, the tongue is deflected by the neck portion in a closing direction.

Abstract: A clip may have a clip body configured to be attached to a rib formed in an attaching article and configured to be inserted into an attaching hole formed in an object panel. The clip body includes a clamping portion configured to be coupled to the rib via an engagement slot formed in the rib, and an engagement portion elastically engageable with the attaching hole. The engagement portion has a biasing body that is configured to elastically contact an outer surface of the rib when the engagement portion is deformed inwardly caused by an extraction load applied to the clip body. The biasing body is positioned so as to contact the outer surface of the rib in a position closer to a distal end of the rib than the engagement slot.

Abstract: A clip may include an anchor made of a hard resinous material and having a pillar that is configured to be inserted into an attaching hole formed in a plate-shaped object member and elastic arms that are formed in the pillar and capable of flexing inward and outward with respect to the pillar, and cushions made of a soft resinous material. The elastic arms respectively have engagement claws respectively having engagement surfaces that are configured to engage an inner periphery of the attaching hole. The engagement surfaces are respectively covered by the cushions.

Abstract: A clip having a main clip body that is made of resin and has a shape in front view that is closed at one end and open at the other end. The main clip body has engaging arms and holding members positioned to the inside of the engaging arms. The engaging arms are configured so as to be elastically deformed when the main clip body passes through an installing hole of a partner panel and to engage with a rim of the hole when the engaging arms have been inserted. The holding members are configured so as to keep the main clip body fitted onto the clip seat of the mounted member. The engaging arms and the holding members are connected to assume a substantially diamond-shaped loop in front view, and are configured so that the positions thereof differ in side view, and overlap in front view, when elastically deformed.

Abstract: A waterproofing structure for a vehicle door having a cover member for closing a service hole formed in an inner panel, and a clip for detachably mounting the cover member to the inner panel. The cover member includes a seat portion and a tool hole. The seat portion is formed on an outer side of the cover member facing the inner panel, and the clip is mounted thereto. To detach the clip from the inner panel, a tool is inserted into the tool hole from an inner side. The clip includes a countersunk head covering the tool hole to seal the hole while the clip is mounted to the seat portion. The seat portion serves as a canopy with respect to the tool hole, and changes a course of water entering an interior of the door and falling toward the tool hole from the outer side of the cover member.

Abstract: An attaching structure using a clip for attaching an article of a vehicle to a panel secured to a vehicle body in a condition in which an article body of the article is inserted into an opening formed in the panel, may include an engagement portion formed in the article body, and a retainer portion formed in the clip and capable of being connected to the article body via the engagement portion. The engagement portion and the retainer portion are arranged and constructed such that the retainer portion can overlap a periphery of the engagement portion when the retainer portion is connected to the article body via the engagement portion.
