Patent attributes
The present invention discloses a clip for attaching an object to a sheet having an aperture spaced apart from a leading edge of the sheet. The clip includes a base with a generally planar lower member, the lower member having a leading edge and a trailing edge. The base also has a generally planar upper member extending across the lower member, the upper member also having a leading edge, a trailing edge and an opening between the upper member leading edge and trailing edge. The trailing edge of the upper member is attached to and extends from the base proximate the trailing edge of the lower member. The upper member also includes a spring located proximate to the trailing edge of the upper member and extending into the opening in a generally leading edge direction. The finger spring is operable to apply a force in a generally leading edge direction onto a sheet edge of a sheet inserted and located between the lower member and the upper member. The upper member can include a catch stem located proximate to the leading edge of the upper member yet oppositely disposed across from the opening from the finger spring. The catch stem extends into the opening in a generally trailing edge direction and is operable to catch a sheet edge of the sheet bounding the aperture spaced apart from the leading edge of the sheet and thereby preventing removal of the clip from the sheet.
