Binder clip

摘要

A binder clip includes a clamping member of spring steel having jaws interconnected by a transverse portion, and a pair of handles each formed of two legs mounted at spaced positions to adjacent the free ends of the jaws. A portion of one leg of one handle extends adjacent one edge of a jaw of the clamping member to adjacent the transverse portion, where another portion of the leg is directed inwardly; and a portion of the other leg of that handle extends adjacent the other edge of the jaw of the clamping member to adjacent the transverse portion, where another portion of the leg is directed inwardly. There is thus provided a space between the two legs so that an element such as a label holder can be mounted on the jaw of the clamping member, without interference from the legs of the handle.

主权项

1. A binder clip comprising a clamping member having first and second jaws and a transverse portion, the first jaw being connected at a first end to one side of the transverse portion and having a second, free end, and the second jaw being connected at a first end to an other side of the transverse portion and having a second, free end; the first and second jaws converging and providing a clamping force so that an item positioned between the second ends of the jaws will be clamped; there being mounted to the second end of the first jaw a first handle which extends over the first jaw to a first actuating part beyond the transverse portion; and there being mounted to the second end of the second jaw a second handle which extends over the second jaw to a second actuating part beyond the transverse portion; characterised in that one leg of the first handle extends adjacent one edge of the first jaw of the clamping member to adjacent the first end of the first jaw and is then directed inwardly; and an other leg of the first handle extends adjacent an other edge of the first jaw of the clamping member to adjacent the first end of the first jaw and is then directed inwardly; wherein a label holder is mounted on the first jaw in a space between the legs of the first handle.
