<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a clothespin which can be easily used for pinching laundry with one hand. <P>SOLUTION: The clothespin includes: a first pinching member 1 having a shaft part 1b formed at one end side, a pinching part 1d formed in the middle part and a finger putting part 1f formed at the other end side; a second pinching member 2 which is approximately V-shaped and has a fitting part 2a in which the shaft part of the first pinching member is rotatably fitted in a bent part, a pinching part 2d formed at one end side for pinching laundry 7 between itself and the pinching part of the first pinching member, and a finger putting part 2g formed at the other end side extended in parallel with the other end side of the first pinching part; and a ring-shaped spring 4 for energizing the first and second pinching members so as to close the pinching parts of the first and second pinching members. Thus, the laundry can be pinched between the pinching parts with one hand even by a user carrying a laundry basket containing laundry under an arm or having a physically-disabled hand, without requiring any knack. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
