[0010] The clip 1 of one embodiment will be specifically described below with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the insert direction of the sheet member 2 into the clip 1 is the X-axis direction, the direction perpendicular to the X-axis direction in the plane in which the sheet member 2 extends is the Y-axis direction (width direction), and the direction perpendicular to the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction is the Z-axis direction (thickness direction, up-down direction). The sheet member 2 corresponds to a non-fixed installation surface different from a rigid fixed installation surface such as a wall, and may be a flexible member that can move relative to a structure such as a building, for example, a sheet-like member such as a curtain, cloth, or film. The sheet-like member is not particularly limited, but is, for example, a member that is movably attached to a structure such as a building, and a general curtain is fixed to a rigid fixed installation surface via a curtain rail.

[0011] Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of a clip 1 according to this embodiment. Fig. 2 shows an exploded perspective view of the clip 1 according to this embodiment. Fig. 3 shows a plan view of the clip 1 according to this embodiment. Fig. 4 shows a cross-section taken along line IV-IV in Fig. 3. Fig. 5 shows a cross-section taken along line VV in Fig. 4.

[0012] The clip 1 according to this embodiment is capable of removably fixing a sheet member 2, and includes a clip body 10 having a fixing portion 70 capable of clamping an end of the sheet member 2, and a hook portion 50 provided on the opposite side of the clip body 10 in the X-axis direction from the side to which the sheet member 2 is fixed, and the hook portion 50 and the clip body 10 have a separation portion 80 that allows the hook portion 50 and the clip body 10 to be detached, and are engaged with the sheet member 2. Therefore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, when a foreign object gets caught on a member bundling the sheet members 2 and a force of a predetermined level or more is applied, the hook portion 50 can be released from the fixing portion 70, thereby improving safety.

[0013] In the clip 1 of this embodiment, the force with which the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 are engaged at the separation portion 80 is weaker than the force with which the sheet member 2 and the fixing portion 70 of the clip body 10 are engaged at the fixing portion 70. Therefore, the clip 1 of this embodiment can improve safety because the hook portion 50 can be disengaged before the sheet member 2 is engaged. Note that, although not limited to this invention, the fixing portion 70 of this embodiment is composed of the clip bottom portion 30 and the cam lock body 60, and the separation portion 80 of this embodiment is composed of the engaging portion 22 and the engaged portion 52.

[0014] Specifically, the force with which the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 are engaged at the separation portion 80 is in the range of 10N or more and less than 60N, and the force with which the sheet member 2 and the fixing portion 70 are engaged at the fixing portion 70 of the clip body 10 is 70N or more. There is no particular upper limit to the force with which the sheet member 2 and the fixing portion 70 are engaged at the fixing portion 70 of the clip body 10, but it is generally preferable that the sheet member 2 and the fixing portion 70 are fixed to a degree that does not cause significant damage to the sheet member 2 or the structure to which the sheet member 2 is fixed. If an upper limit is to be set, it is 500N or less. Therefore, the clip 1 of this embodiment can release the hook portion 50 from the engagement of the sheet member 2 with an appropriate load, thereby further improving safety. Furthermore, it is preferable that there is a certain difference between the force with which the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 engage and the force with which the sheet member 2 and the fixed portion 70 of the clip body 10 engage, and it is preferable that the difference in the engaging forces be at least 20 N. Here, for safety reasons, it is necessary that the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 are reliably separated without being affected by the locking force between the sheet member 2 and the fixing portion 70, and the above locking force is set accordingly.

[0015] The force with which the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 are engaged can be measured by fixing the clip body 10 in a state in which the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 are engaged, simulating a state in which an actual load is applied, pulling the string hooked on the hook portion 50 in a cantilever manner in the opposite direction to the clip body 10 with a load measuring device or the like, and measuring the force when the hook portion 50 separates from the clip body 10. Furthermore, the force with which the sheet member 2 and the fixing portion 70 are engaged can be measured by fixing the fixing portion 70 with a clamp or the like in a state in which the fixing portion 70 engages the sheet member 2, pulling the sheet member 2 in the opposite direction to the fixing portion 70 with a load measuring device or the like, and measuring the force when the sheet member 2 separates from the fixing portion 70.

[0016] The clip body 10 has a clip base 20, a clip bottom 30 extending in the X-axis direction from the clip base 20, and a pair of clip side portions 40. The clip side portions 40 are disposed on both sides of the clip bottom portion 30 in the Y-axis direction, extending from the clip base 20 at a distance from the clip bottom portion 30, and side openings 11 are formed between the clip side portions 40 and the clip bottom portion 30.

[0017] The clip base 20 has a base piece portion 21 extending in the Y-axis direction, and a locking portion 22 formed integrally with the base piece portion 21 and protruding from the side of the base piece portion 21 opposite the clip bottom portion 30. The base piece portion 21 extends in the Y-axis direction and connects the clip bottom portion 30 and the clip side portion 40. The locking portion 22 in this embodiment forms a protruding piece portion 22a, and the protruding piece portion 22a has both side protruding portions 221 extending up and down in the Z-axis direction from both side portions in the Y-axis direction, and a central protruding portion 222 extending up and down in the Z-axis direction from the center in the X-axis and Y-axis directions. The both side protruding portions 221 are formed away from the base piece portion 21.

[0018] The clip bottom 30 is formed in a rectangular plate shape having a pair of side edges 31 along the X-axis direction and an insertion edge 32 that is continuous with the pair of side edges 31 and along the Y-axis direction, and extends in the X-axis direction from the lower edge of the base piece 21. The clip bottom 30 is formed with a cam receiver 33 and an auxiliary cam receiver 34 that protrude upward. The cam receiver 33 and the auxiliary cam receiver 34 are disposed at a distance in the X-axis direction, with the cam receiver 33 disposed on the clip base 20 side relative to the auxiliary cam receiver 34 and the auxiliary cam receiver 34 disposed on the insertion edge 32 side of the clip bottom 30 relative to the cam receiver 33.

[0019] As shown in Fig. 2, the cam receiver 33 is formed of a protrusion extending in the Y-axis direction. Also, as shown in Fig. 4, an upper edge 331 of the cam receiver 33 is disposed on a rotation trajectory 68 of a tip 66 of a locking cam portion 65, which will be described later. Therefore, when the locking cam portion 65 is rotated without the sheet member 2, the tip 66 of the locking cam portion 65 slides against the upper edge 331 of the cam receiver 33, as shown in Fig. 4, along the rotation trajectory 68. The sheet member 2 is sandwiched in the X-axis direction between the locking cam portion 65 and the cam receiver 33, as shown in Fig. 3.

[0020] 2, the auxiliary cam receiving portion 34 has a protrusion portion 36 formed along the Y-axis direction in the same shape as the cam receiving portion 33, and uneven portions 37 formed along the Y-axis direction and continuous with both ends in the Y-axis direction of the protrusion portion 36. This auxiliary cam receiving portion 34 is disposed closer to the insertion edge portion 32 than the locking cam portion 65 in the locked state of the sheet member 2 shown in FIG. 4, and the sheet member 2 is sandwiched between the locking cam portion 65 and the auxiliary cam receiving portion 34 in the X-axis direction.

[0021] The clip side portions 40 are formed in an arm shape extending in the X-axis direction from both ends in the Y-axis direction of the base piece portion 21, and each end is formed with a shaft support hole 41. Also, on inner surfaces of the clip side portions 40 facing each other in the Y-axis direction, receiving portions 42 are formed for receiving the cam lock body 60 in the locked state of the sheet member 2.

[0022] The side opening 11 is formed between the lower edge of the arm-shaped clip side portion 40 and one side edge portion 31 of the clip bottom portion 30, and extends in the X-axis direction.

[0023] 4, the clip body 10 configured in this manner is formed into a substantially U-shaped cross section by the base piece portion 21, the clip bottom portion 30, and the clip side portion 40. As described above, the clip body 10 is made of resin and has elasticity that allows the side opening 11 to expand in the Z-axis direction.

[0024] The cam lock body 60 has a pivot operating portion 61 arranged at a distance above the clip bottom 30, a pair of shaft portions 64 formed on both sides of the pivot operating portion 61 in the Y-axis direction, and a locking cam portion 65 protruding from the pivot operating portion 61 toward the clip bottom 30 when the sheet member 2 is in the locked state.

[0025] The rotation operation unit 61 has a base 62 on which a pair of shafts 64 are formed, and a rectangular plate-shaped operation cover 63 extending from the base 62 toward the clip base 20 when the sheet member 2 is engaged. The pair of shafts 64 are supported by a pair of shaft support holes 41 so as to be rotatable in the R direction. The base 62 is disposed at an interval in the X-axis direction relative to the clip bottom 30, and forms an insertion opening 12 between the base 62 and the insertion edge 32 of the clip bottom 30. The insertion opening 12 is continuous with the side opening 11. The rotation operation unit 61 is rotated in the R direction around the rotation axis O of the shafts 64 while the operation cover 63 is held by fingers or the like.

[0026] The locking cam portion 65 is disposed on a virtual straight line along the Z-axis direction passing through the rotation axis O of the shaft portion 64 in the locked state of the sheet member 2 shown in Fig. 4. In the locked state, a surface 651 of the locking cam portion 65 on the clip base 20 side is inclined with respect to the Z-axis direction so as to approach the insertion opening 12 side described later as it moves from the base 62 toward the clip bottom portion 30, and a surface 652 of the locking cam portion 65 on the insertion opening 12 side is disposed along the Z-axis direction. In addition, uneven portions (not shown) are formed on both ends in the Y-axis direction of the tip 66 of the locking cam portion 65.

[0027] 4 by rotating the rotation operation part 61, the locking cam part 65 can rotate from an locking position P1 shown by a solid line to a release position P2 shown by a two-dot chain line, and the tip 66 moves on a rotation trajectory 68. Here, the locking position P1 is a position closer to the insertion edge part 32 than the cam receiver 33 in the X-axis direction and between the cam receiver 33 and the auxiliary cam receiver 34, and the release position P2 is a position on the inner side in the X-axis direction than the cam receiver 33. Therefore, when the locking cam part 65 rotates to the locking position P1 or the release position P2, it passes over the cam receiver 33.

[0028] The hook portion 50 has a hook portion 51 extending in the Y-axis direction, a locked portion 52 formed integrally with the hook portion 51 and protruding from the center of the hook portion 51 in the Y-axis direction, and a pair of protrusions 53 protruding from both sides of the hook portion 51 in the Y-axis direction toward the clip body 10. As shown in FIG. 3, the hook portion 51 and the locked portion 52 form a T-shape. At least a part of the protrusions 53 is located inside the width region of the clip body 10 in the Y-axis direction. In addition, both ends of the hook portion 50 in the Y-axis direction are located outside the width region of the clip body 10 in the Y-axis direction.

[0029] The hanging piece portion 51 is formed in a long plate shape extending in the Y-axis direction. The long sides of the hanging piece portion 51 are formed in a smooth curve, and both end edges are formed in a semicircular shape. A hole 50a is formed on the opposite side of the central locked portion 52 of the hanging piece portion 51 in the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction. The formation of the hole 50a makes the locked portion 52 more flexible.

[0030] The locked portion 52 of this embodiment constitutes a receiving portion 52a, and protrudes from two points spaced apart in the Z-axis direction at the center of the hook portion 51 in the Y-axis direction. In other words, the locked portion 52 is composed of a pair of protrusions spaced apart along the Z-axis direction, and a receiving portion 52a for receiving the locking portion 22 is provided between the pair of protrusions. Each receiving portion 52a is formed with a pair of hook portions 521 that protrude facing each other at the tip of the center in the Y-axis direction. The hook portion 521 is hooked to the central protrusion 222 of the protrusion portion 22a and is hooked between the both side protrusions 221. In other words, the both side protrusions 221 and both ends of the protrusion are formed to extend outward from the side ends along the Y-axis of the pair of protrusions that are the locked portion 52. At this time, the both side protrusions 221 may be spaced apart from the hook portion 50. When the latch portion 521 is disengaged from the central protrusion 222 , the hook portion 50 is released from the clip body 10 .

[0031] Fig. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along line IV-IV of the clip 1 according to this embodiment during operation. Fig. 7 is a perspective view of the clip 1 according to this embodiment in a locked state.

[0032] The operation of the clip 1 according to this embodiment will be described below. First, as shown in Fig. 6, with the locking cam portion 65 disposed at the release position P2, the sheet member 2 is inserted in the X-axis direction from the insertion opening 12. At this time, if the sheet member 2 is a strip or sheet having a width dimension in the Y-axis direction larger than the distance between the pair of clip side portions 40, the sheet member 2 is passed from the insertion opening 12 to the side opening 11.

[0033] Next, the operation cover 63 is operated to rotate the cam lock body 60 in the R direction, and as shown in FIG. 4, the locking cam portion 65 is moved from the release position P2 to the locking position P1, and the sheet member 2 is sandwiched in the Z-axis direction by the locking cam portion 65 and the cam receiver 33. At this time, the sheet member 2 may be further sandwiched in the Z-axis direction by the locking cam portion 65 and the auxiliary cam receiver 34. In addition, by sandwiching the sheet member 2 between the uneven portion (not shown) of the locking cam portion 65 and the uneven portion 37 of the auxiliary cam receiver 34, the positional deviation of the sheet member 2 in the Y-axis direction relative to the clip 1 is suppressed. By sandwiching in this manner, the sheet member 2 is locked. Note that, as shown in FIG. 1, in the locked state of the sheet member 2, the operation cover 63 is received by the receiver 42 of the clip side portion 40, so that the locking cam portion 65 is restricted from further rotating from the locking position P1 toward the insertion opening 12 side.

[0034] Here, when the locking cam portion 65 passes the cam receiver 33 while moving from the release position P2 to the locking position P1, the sheet member 2 is sandwiched vertically between the tip 66 and the upper edge 331 at a position where the locking cam portion 65 faces the cam receiver 33 vertically. At this time, the clip body 10 elastically deforms according to the thickness dimension in the Z-axis direction of the sheet member 2, etc., and the rotation resistance of the cam lock body 60 temporarily increases. Then, the locking cam portion 65 passes the cam receiver 33, and the vertical facing state between the locking cam portion 65 and the cam receiver 33 is released. In addition, the vertical sandwiching of the sheet member 2 at the tip 66 and the upper edge 331 is released.

[0035] The clip body 10 returns from the elastically deformed state to its original state, and the rotational resistance of the cam lock body 60, which had temporarily increased, is reduced and returns, and the locking cam portion 65 reaches the locking position P1. In this way, the rotational resistance of the cam lock body 60 temporarily increases and decreases, and a clicking sensation is transmitted to the fingers operating the operation cover 63, alerting the operator that the locking has been completed. Note that, in the locked state of the sheet member 2, the operation cover 63 is disposed so as to cover the clip bottom portion 30 from above, thereby covering the sheet member 2. Note that, in the locking position P1 of the sheet member 2, the average gap between the tip 66 of the locking cam portion 65 and the portion of the clip bottom portion 30 into which the sheet member is inserted is within a range of 0.1 mm or more and less than 0.5 mm. Here, the average gap refers to a gap obtained by taking the average value of the dimensions of the surfaces where the tip 66 of the locking cam portion 65 and the clip bottom portion 30 face each other when the locking cam portion 65 is pulled upward at P1.

[0036] 6, to release the lock of the seat member 2, the operation cover 63 is operated to rotate the cam lock body 60 in the opposite direction, and the lock cam portion 65 is moved from the lock position P1 to the release position P2. At this time, the lock cam portion 65 also passes over the cam receiver 33, so the rotation resistance of the cam lock body 60 temporarily increases or decreases as described above, and a clicking sensation is transmitted to the fingers operating the operation cover 63, alerting the operator that the lock has been released.

[0037] Incidentally, even if the thickness dimension of the sheet member 2 is larger than the opening dimension of the side opening 11 in the Z-axis direction, when the sheet member 2 is inserted through the insertion opening 12 and passed through the side opening 11, the clip body 10 elastically deforms and the opening dimension of the side opening 11 expands vertically, so it is possible to lock such a sheet member 2. Since the relationship between the above-mentioned average gap and the thickness dimension of the sheet member 2 is due to the force with which the sheet member 2 and the fixing part 70 lock, a design is made taking into consideration the expected material and thickness of the sheet member 2 and the average gap between the tip of the locking cam part 65 and the part of the clip bottom 30 where the sheet member 2 is inserted.

[0038] The clip 1 can engage and fasten the sheet member 2, and the loop string 2b of the tassel 2a can be hung on the T-shaped hook portion 50, so that the sheet members 2 can be bound together as shown in Fig. 7 even if a tassel hanger or the like is not attached to the building. The tassel 2a and the loop string 2b constitute the restraining members 2a and 2b.

[0039] Next, separation of the hook portion 50 of the clip 1 of this embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 7, the clip 1 of this embodiment can bundle the sheet members 2 by hooking the loop strings 2b on both sides of the tassel 2a to the hook portion 50. In this state, if a foreign object is caught on the loop-shaped tassel 2a, in the conventional clip, the foreign object may remain caught, which may cause a safety problem, or excessive load may be applied to the clip, which may damage the sheet member itself or destroy the connection portion between the sheet member and the fixed erection surface of a building or the like. In the clip 1 of this embodiment, when a foreign object is caught on the loop-shaped tassel 2a, the tassel 2a is pulled, and a predetermined load is applied to the hook portion 50, the hook portion 50 separates from the clip body 10 before an excessive load is applied to the engagement portion between the sheet member 2 and the fixing portion 70, and the loop-shaped tassel 2a is released, and the bundled sheet members 2 are untied.

[0040] Fig. 8 shows a perspective view of the clip 1 according to this embodiment with the hook portion 50 inclined. Fig. 9 shows a VV cross section of the clip 1 according to this embodiment with the hook portion 50 inclined. Fig. 10 shows a XX cross section of Fig. 9.

[0041] When the clip 521 is in a general use state, the loop string 2b of the tassel 2a is hooked in a cantilever manner on the hook piece portion 51 on the side away from the ground. The clip 1 of this embodiment assumes such a general use state, and when a predetermined load is applied to the hook portion 50, the hook portion 50 tilts relative to the clip body 10. When the tilt proceeds to a predetermined angle, as shown in FIG. 9, the apex 531 of the protrusion 53 comes into contact with the base piece portion 21 of the clip base 20, and the tilt stops. In this state, when the locked portion 52 comes into contact with the both side protrusions 221, the tilt is firmly stopped, which is preferable.

[0042] Fig. 11 shows a cross section taken along line XI-XI immediately before the hook portion 50 is separated. Fig. 12 shows a perspective view of the clip 1 according to this embodiment in a state in which the hook portion 50 is separated.

[0043] When a further load is applied to the hook portion 50 from the state of FIG. 8 or FIG. 9, as shown in FIG. 11, the hooking portion 521 rides up on the central protrusion 222, and the locked portion 52 is bent. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 12, the hook portion 50 is separated from the clip body 10. When the hook portion 50 is separated from the clip body 10, the movement in the Y-axis direction is restricted by the both side protrusions 221, so that the hook portion 50 can be stably separated from the clip body 10. In addition, as in this embodiment, the relationship between the locking portion 22 and the locked portion 52 is designed so that the hook portion 50 can be separated from the clip body 10 after rotating along the direction of gravity (i.e., the Y-axis direction), so that the engagement can be stably maintained outside the range of the expected locking force. The separated hook portion 50 can be attached to the clip body 10 by fitting the hooking portion 521 in reverse so that it rides up on the central protrusion 222. It is preferable that the ends of the central protrusion 222 and the hook portion 521 in the X-axis direction are inclined so that they can be easily separated and attached, so that they can be easily attached and detached.

[0044] FIG. 13 shows an exploded perspective view of a clip 1 according to another embodiment.

[0045] In the clip 1 of another embodiment shown in FIG. 13, the structure of the separation portion 80 is such that the locking portion 22 of the clip body 10 constitutes the receiving portion 22b, and the locked portion 52 of the hook portion 50 constitutes the protruding piece portion 52b. The receiving portion 22b of the other embodiment protrudes from two points spaced apart in the Z-axis direction at the center in the Y-axis direction of the base piece portion 21. At the tip of the center in the Y-axis direction of each receiving portion 22b, a pair of hook portions 223 are formed that protrude facing each other. The protruding piece portion 52b of the other embodiment has both side protrusions 522 that extend up and down in the Z-axis direction from both side portions in the Y-axis direction, and a central protrusion 523 that extends up and down in the Z-axis direction from the center in the X-axis and Y-axis directions. The both side protrusions 522 are formed spaced apart from the hook piece portion 51.

[0046] As described above, the clip 1 of this embodiment is a clip 1 capable of removably fixing the sheet member 2, and includes the clip body 10 having the fixing portion 70 capable of clamping an end of the sheet member 2, and the hook portion 50 provided on the side of the clip body 10 opposite to the side to which the sheet member 2 is fixed, and the hook portion 50 and the clip body 10 include a separation portion 80 that allows the hook portion 50 and the clip body 10 to be detached. Therefore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, when a foreign object gets caught on the loop-shaped tassel 2a, the tassel 2a is pulled, and a predetermined load is applied to the hook portion 50, the hook portion 50 can be released, so that the hook portion 50 separates from the clip body 10, the loop-shaped tassel 2a comes off, and the bundled sheet members 2 are untied, thereby improving safety.

[0047] In the clip 1 of this embodiment, the force with which the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 are engaged at the separation portion 80 is weaker than the force with which the sheet member 2 and the fixing portion 70 are engaged at the fixing portion 70 of the clip body 10. Therefore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, when a foreign object gets caught on the loop-shaped tassel 2a, the tassel 2a is pulled, and a predetermined load is applied to the hook portion 50, the hook portion 50 can be released before the sheet member 2 is engaged, so that the hook portion 50 separates from the clip body 10, the loop-shaped tassel 2a comes off, and the bundled sheet members 2 are untied, which can prevent damage to the sheet members 2 and improve safety.

[0048] Furthermore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, the force with which the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 are engaged at the separation portion 80 is in the range of 10 N or more and less than 60 N, and the force with which the sheet member 2 and the fixing portion 70 of the clip body 10 are engaged at the fixing portion 70 is 70 N or more. Therefore, the clip 1 of this embodiment can appropriately release the hook portion 50 before the sheet member 2 is engaged, thereby preventing damage to the sheet member 2 and the like and further improving safety.

[0049] Moreover, the clip 1 of this embodiment includes a cam lock body 60 that locks the sheet member 2 inserted into the clip body 10. Therefore, the clip 1 of this embodiment can lock the sheet member 2 appropriately.

[0050] In the clip 1 of this embodiment, the clip body 10 has a clip bottom 30, a pair of clip side parts 40 arranged on both sides of the clip bottom 30 in a width direction intersecting with the insertion direction of the sheet member 2, and a clip base part 20 continuous with the clip bottom 30 and the pair of clip side parts 40, and the cam lock body 60 has a rotation operation part 61 arranged at a distance from the clip bottom 30, a pair of shaft parts 64 formed on both ends of the rotation operation part 61 in the axial direction, and a locking cam part 65 protruding from the rotation operation part 61 to the clip bottom 30 side at the locking position P1 of the sheet member 2, and the pair of shaft parts 64 are rotatably supported by the pair of clip side parts 40. Therefore, the clip 1 of this embodiment can more appropriately lock the sheet member 2.

[0051] Furthermore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, the average gap between the tip 66 of the locking cam portion 65 and the clip bottom portion 30 of the cam lock body 60 is within a range of 0.1 mm or more and less than 0.5 mm at the locking position P1 of the sheet member 2. Therefore, the clip 1 of this embodiment can more appropriately lock the sheet member 2 between the locking cam portion 65 and the clip bottom portion 30.

[0052] In the clip 1 of this embodiment, the clip body 10 has a base piece portion 21 and a locking portion 22 formed integrally with the base piece portion 21, the hook portion 50 has a hanging piece portion 51 for hanging the restraining members 2a and 2b that bind the sheet member 2, and a locked portion 52 formed integrally with the hanging piece portion 51, at least one of the locking portion 22 and the locked portion 52 has protruding pieces 22a and 52b that protrude toward the other side, and the other of the locking portion 22 and the locked portion 52 has receiving portions 52a and 22b that receive the protruding pieces 22a and 52b, and the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 are detachably locked. Therefore, the clip 1 of this embodiment can be reused by reattaching the locked portion 52 to the locking portion 22 after separation.

[0053] In the clip 1 of this embodiment, if the insertion direction of the sheet member 2 into the clip body 10 is defined as the X-axis direction, the direction perpendicular to the X-axis direction in the plane in which the sheet member 2 extends is defined as the Y-axis direction, and the direction perpendicular to the X-axis and Y-axis directions is defined as the Z-axis direction, the protruding pieces 22a, 52b have central protrusions 222, 523 extending up and down in the Z-axis direction from the plane that defines the X-axis and Y-axis directions, and the receiving parts 52a, 22b have a pair of opposing hook parts 521, 223 that can be hooked to the central protrusions 222, 523. Therefore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, the hook parts 521, 223 are normally hooked to the central protrusions 222, 523, and the hook parts 50 can be adjusted to separate when a predetermined load is exceeded.

[0054] Furthermore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, the protruding pieces 22a, 52b have both side protruding parts 221, 522 extending up and down in the Z-axis direction from both sides in the Y-axis direction of the central protruding parts 222, 523, and the receiving parts 52a, 22b are engaged between the both side protruding parts 221, 522. Therefore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, the both side protruding parts 221, 522 restrict the movement of the receiving parts 52a, 22b in the Y-axis direction, and even if the hook part 50 is inclined with respect to the clip body 10, it is possible to maintain a stable state until a predetermined load is applied.

[0055] In the clip 1 of this embodiment, the two side protrusions 221, 522 are formed spaced apart from the base piece portion 21 or the hook portion 50. Therefore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, the inclination angle of the hook portion 50 relative to the clip body 10 can be adjusted, and the predetermined load when the clip body 10 and the hook portion 50 are separated can be finely adjusted.

[0056] Moreover, the clip 1 of this embodiment has a pair of protrusions 53 that protrude from both sides of the hook portion 51 in the Y-axis direction toward the clip body 10, and at least a portion of the protrusions 53 is located inside the width region in the Y-axis direction of the clip body 10. Therefore, even if the hook portion 50 is inclined with respect to the clip body 10, the clip 1 of this embodiment can bring the protrusions 53 into contact with the clip body 10, and can maintain a stable state until a predetermined load is applied.

[0057] Furthermore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, both ends of the hook portion 50 in the Y-axis direction are located outside the width region of the clip body 10 in the Y-axis direction. Therefore, in the clip 1 of this embodiment, when a predetermined load is applied, the hook portion 50 functions in this manner, and can properly separate the hook portion 50 from the clip body 10.

[0058] Although various embodiments of the present invention have been described, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and embodiments formed by appropriately combining the configurations of each embodiment also fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0059] For example, in this embodiment, the hook portion 50 is formed in a T-shape, but the shape of the hanging piece portion 51 may be changed. For example, the hanging piece portion 51 may have any shape, such as a curved shape, that allows the tassel 2a to be hooked.

[0060] In addition, in this embodiment, the clip 1 is made of resin, but may be made of other materials. Although the clip body 10 has elasticity that allows the side opening 11 to expand vertically, the clip body 10 does not need to have elasticity when there is no application for fastening a sheet member 2 larger than the vertical dimension of the side opening 11 or when there is no need for the clip body 10 to have the above-mentioned clicking sensation.

[0061] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the locking cam portion 65 is arranged on a virtual straight line along the Z-axis direction passing through the rotation axis O of the shaft portion 64, but this is not limited to this, and as long as it is capable of locking the sheet member 2, it may be arranged on the clip base 20 side or the insertion opening 12 side with respect to the rotation axis O.

[0062] In addition, in this embodiment, an auxiliary cam receiving portion 34 is formed opposite the cam receiving portion 33, but if the sheet member 2 can be sufficiently engaged without the auxiliary cam receiving portion 34, the configuration of this auxiliary cam receiving portion 34 may be omitted.

[0063] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a pair of side openings 11 are formed, but this is not limiting, and only one of the side openings 11 may be formed. Even in this case, a sheet member 2 having a width dimension larger than the width dimension of the clip side portion 40 in the Y-axis direction can be passed through one of the side openings 11 to be locked.

[0064] In addition, in this embodiment, the upper edge 331 of the cam receiver 33 is disposed on the rotation locus 68 of the tip 66 of the locking cam portion 65, but is not limited thereto, and may be disposed on the outer circumferential side of the rotation locus 68. In this case, if the distance between the upper edge 331 and the rotation locus 68 is smaller than the thickness dimension of the sheet member 2, elastic deformation occurs in the clip body 10 when the locking cam portion 65 passes the cam receiver 33, and the rotation resistance of the locking cam portion 65 temporarily increases or decreases, so that a clicking sensation can be conveyed to the operator.

[0065] Furthermore, the upper edge 331 of the cam receiver 33 may be disposed on the inner peripheral side of the rotation locus 68. In this case as well, when the locking cam portion 65 passes the cam receiver 33, elastic deformation occurs in the clip body 10, and the rotation resistance of the locking cam portion 65 temporarily increases or decreases, so that a clicking sensation can be conveyed to the operator.

[0066] In addition, in this embodiment, the cam receiving portion 33 has a convex shape that protrudes upward, but this is not limited thereto. It is sufficient that the cam receiving portion 33 has a surface that faces the locking cam portion 65 in the X-axis direction at the locking position P1, and the cam receiving portion 33 may have a stepped shape having such a surface, for example.

[0067] Furthermore, the auxiliary cam receiving portion 34 is also formed in a convex shape protruding upward, but it is sufficient that it has a surface that faces the locking cam portion 65 in the X-axis direction at the locking position P1, and it may be formed in a stepped shape having such a surface, for example.
