[0028] Unless otherwise stated, the singular forms described in this disclosure may also include the meaning of the plural form, and this interpretation also applies to the singular forms recited in the claims.

[0029] The preferred embodiments of the multi-functional clip according to the present invention and the safe utilizing the multi-functional clip will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Figure 2 a and b are schematic diagrams illustrating the multifunctional clip according to the present invention. Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional view showing an embodiment of the multifunctional clip according to the present invention. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the state in which a multi-functional clip is attached to a safe according to the present invention. Figure 5 Figures a and b are schematic diagrams illustrating the state of connecting the rope strap to the multi-functional clip of the safe according to the present invention. Figure 6 Figures a and b are schematic diagrams illustrating the state in which the safe is locked using the multi-functional clip of the safe according to the present invention.

[0031] This invention relates to a multi-functional clip 100 that can be used as a hanging ring for connecting accessories such as bag straps, or to penetrate the lid of the safe and connect a padlock to the end, depending on the direction of its engagement with the safe, thereby enabling the locking of the safe, and a safe 200 utilizing the multi-functional clip, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the multifunctional clamp 100 according to the present invention may include: a closed ring-shaped ring portion 110, and a plurality of clamping portions 120 extending below the ring portion 110 and having grooves formed eccentrically relative to the ring portion 110.

[0032] To explain in more detail, the ring portion 110 is formed as a closed ring, but can also be formed into various shapes such as polygons, semicircles, or semi-ovals.

[0033] Furthermore, the clamping portion 120 extends to form multiple portions at the lower end of the ring portion 110, and its formed grooves are combined with the lining 10 and the like provided on the outer body 1 of the storage box 50.

[0034] That is, the storage box 50 is in the form of a plate or a hollow box, and includes: linings 10, 10' provided along the edges of the outer bodies 1, 1' that constitute the outer shape of the storage box 50, and a hinged clamp (not shown) that is combined to allow the linings 10, 10' respectively provided on the adjacent outer bodies 1, 1' to be connected in one pass.

[0035] At this time, as Figure 4 As shown, the grooves of the clamping parts 120 are configured to be located on the same straight line, so that the grooves of the respective clamping parts 120 can be engaged with the lining 10 on the outer body 1 of the storage box 50.

[0036] In addition, such as Figure 5 b and Figure 6 In the section marked with a thick line, the groove of the clamping part 120 is formed with an opening on its inner circumferential surface that can contact the outer circumferential surface of the liner 10 at an area of ​​more than 270 degrees. This maximizes the contact area with the liner 10 while simultaneously contacting the upper and lower parts of the liner 10, thereby achieving a stable fixation without wobbling in the vertical direction.

[0037] Furthermore, preferably, the groove of the clamping part 120 is made of an elastic material, which enables easy connection even if the width of the opening is smaller than the diameter of the liner 10.

[0038] Meanwhile, the opening of the groove of the clamping part 120 is inclined at a certain angle to the upper side in the direction opposite to the direction in which the ring part 110 is formed, and the opening width of the opening is configured to gradually narrow from the inside of the groove to the outside and then widen, so that even if an external force is applied to the clamping part 120, it can be prevented from easily detaching from the liner 10, and the engagement or disassembly with the liner 10 can only be achieved when the user applies force in the direction corresponding to the length direction of the opening.

[0039] However, the groove of the clamping part 120 is eccentrically disposed on one side relative to the ring part 110, so that the cross section of the multi-functional clamp 50 is formed in the state where the ring part 110 is facing upwards is b-shaped or d-shaped.

[0040] Therefore, as Figure 5 As shown in a and b, when the groove of the clamping part 120 is spaced apart from the outer body 1 relative to the ring part 110, that is, when the cross section of the multi-functional clip 100 relative to the outer body 1 is formed in shape b with the ring part 110 facing upward, or when the ring part 110 is spaced apart from the outer body 1 relative to the groove of the clamping part 120, that is, when the cross section of the multi-functional clip 100 relative to the outer body 1 is formed in shape d with the ring part 110 facing upward, it can be used as a bag, etc., as long as the rope 4 is connected to the ring part 110. In addition to the rope 4, various accessories can also be connected, thereby achieving a variety of appearance effects and improving the usability of the safe 50.

[0041] In addition, such as Figure 6As shown in a and b, when the groove of the clamping part 120 is spaced apart from the outer body 1 relative to the ring part 110, that is, when the cross section of the multi-functional clamp 100 relative to the outer body 1 is formed in shape b with the ring part 110 facing upward, the ring part 110 is passed between the outer body 1' and the liner 10' on the other side, and then a locking device such as a padlock is installed at the exposed upper end of the ring part 110, so that the safe box 50 is locked and the outer bodies 1, 1' on both sides of the safe box 50 are not opened arbitrarily, thereby enabling the safe box 50 to be used in a more diversified way.

[0042] On the other hand, the clamping part 120 may include: a plurality of first clamping parts 122 having a groove 123 formed in one direction, and at least one second clamping part 124 having a groove 125 formed in the opposite direction to the direction in which the groove 123 of the first clamping part 122 is formed.

[0043] The groove 123 of the first clamping part 122 and the groove 125 of the second clamping part 124 are configured to be located on the same straight line, so that each groove 123, 125 can be combined with the liner 10 on one side of the storage box 50, thereby realizing the combination of the multi-functional clamp 100 with the storage box 50.

[0044] That is, the openings of the groove 123 of the first clamping part 122 and the groove 125 of the second clamping part 124 are relative to the length direction of the clamping part 120 (within the length direction of the first clamping part 122). Figure 2 The axis (based on the vertical direction) is formed symmetrically, so that it can be joined from both the inner and outer sides of the liner 10, so that the liner 10 is covered by the first clamping part 122 and the second clamping part 124, thereby enabling the multifunctional clamp 100 of the present invention to be more firmly joined to the liner 10.

[0045] At this time, the second clamping part 124 can be rotatably arranged around the lower end of the ring part 110 as a pivot 112.

[0046] That is, the second clamping part 124 is connected through the lower end of the ring part 110 as the pivot 112.

[0047] Therefore, the second clamping part 124 can be rotated by a certain angle in advance in the direction in which the first clamping part 122 is combined with the liner 10. With the first clamping part 122 first combined with the liner 10, the second clamping part 124 can be combined with the liner 10 from the opposite direction to the first clamping part 122, thereby making it easier to install the multi-functional clamp 100.

[0048] Furthermore, the ring portion 110 and the second clamping portion 124 are made of elastic materials such as rubber, synthetic rubber, silicone, and synthetic resin. With the help of the elasticity of the material itself, the second clamping portion 124 can be rotatably set relative to the ring portion 110. Its effect is the same as that of the aforementioned embodiment, so detailed description is omitted.

[0049] Furthermore, according to the present invention, such as Figure 7 As shown, the second clamping part 124 can also be configured as two or more, and the configuration of the first clamping part 122 and the second clamping part 124 can also be staggered, etc. As long as they do not depart from the technical concept of the present invention, they all belong to the various embodiments covered by the present invention.

[0050] Therefore, the multi-functional clip 100 and the safe 50 using the multi-functional clip of the present invention can not only be used as a hanging ring for connecting accessories such as bag straps, depending on the different directions of engagement with the safe, or be made to pass through the lid of the safe and be connected to a padlock at the end, thereby locking the safe, but also, among the multiple clamping parts of the multi-functional clip, at least one clamping part is formed with a groove for engaging with the safe in the opposite direction to the other clamping parts, thereby enabling engagement with the safe from the opposite direction to the other clamping parts, so that the multi-functional clip can be firmly held in the state of engagement with the safe.

[0051] Although the present invention has been described above in conjunction with preferred embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the technical concept of the present invention.

[0052] Industrial utilization This invention relates to a multi-functional clip and a safe using the multi-functional clip, and more specifically, to a multi-functional clip that, depending on its orientation with the safe, can be used as a hanging ring for connecting accessories such as bag straps, or can penetrate the lid of the safe and connect a padlock to its end, thereby enabling the locking of the safe, and a safe using the multi-functional clip.
