HINGED CLIP

摘要

A reusable clip for closing plastic bags comprises a pair of jaws which are hinged together, and a releasable latch. One of the jaws is provided with a rib, the other a channel within which the rib is received, wherein at least one of the rib and channelled jaw being formed in medial portions with a lacuna as seen in profile, with a clearance between such medial portions when the jaws are closed. The lacuna assists in locating the clip relative to the bag, and permits the gathering of the neck of the bag whereby a substantial reduction in the size of the clip is possible in comparison to prior art clips.
