Abstract: A compact plastic clip has a recessed auxiliary plate (23) in an upper clipping member (21) which is inserted into a fitting window (5) in a lower clipping member (1). A horizontal bar portion (27) is placed on a support shelf (6), and an axis receiver (46) of an operation member (41) is fitted into an axis support (8) formed in a side wall (4) of the lower clipping member (1) and when it is forcibly pressed downward, both the ends of the lower and upper members (1,21) are pinched together by the elastic power of a plastic material for a closed position, while when the rear area of the operation member (41) is moved upward, a contacting surface (28a) of a projection (28) is pressed forcibly toward the rear at a bottom end (47a) of a first actuation cam (47), so that this action causes an open position between the lower and upper clipping members thereof by the force of a fulcrum function of the horizontal bar portion (27).

Abstract: A compact and smart plastic clip has a recessed auxiliary plate (12) prepared in an upper clipping member (10) which is inserted into a square-like window (5) prepared in a lower clipping member (1). The arcuate bottom (14) is placed on a support shelf, pivot pin receiver holes (25) of an operation member (20) receive pivot pins (4) formed in a pair of side walls (3) for the lower clipping member (1) and is forcibly pressed downward, both top ends of the lower and upper clipping members (1,10) are pinched together in a closed position by elastic power of plastic material. When a rear area of the operation member (20) is moved up the rear wall (15) forcibly presses it onto a tongue-like actuation cam (24). This action causes opening between the lower and upper clipping members by the power of a fulcrum function of the arcuate bottom (14) of the upper clipping member (10).

Abstract: The plastic clip comprises a lower clipping member having bridging plate connected integrally to one end of a substrate so as to separate from the substrate and a support shelf formed between a pair of side walls for supporting the bridging plate, and an upper clipping member having a U-shaped auxiliary portion integrally connected with one end of another substrate and a hinge portion formed at a free end of an outer leg of the U-shaped portion. The clip also comprises an operation member having an actuation cam plate inserted between both legs of the auxiliary portion so that ends of the lower clipping member and the upper clipping member are opened and closed with each other when the upper clipping member is assembled into the lower clipping member by inserting the auxiliary portion of the upper clipping member into the gap situated below the bridging plate of the lower clipping member, and fitting the hinge portion of the upper clipping member to the support shelf of the lower clipping member.
