<p>There remains a need for a simple means of attachment of a clip to an elongated instrument. The solution includes a clip assembly (16) comprising a base portion (20), a resilient elongated member (18) extending from the base portion (20); and means (22, 26) extending from the base portion (20) configured and dimensioned for insertion into at least one aperture defined by the body (12) or cap member (14) of the writing instrument (10) for snap-locking engagement therewith and attachment of the base portion thereto, the base portion (20) and resilient elongated member (18) being configured and dimensioned such that attachment of the base portion to the body (12) or cap member (14) of the writing instrument (10) will retain the elongated member (18) in generally parallel and sufficiently close proximity to the writing instrument (10) for attachment of the writing instrument to wearing apparel.</p> |
