Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a writing instrument clip, and more particularly, to a mounting device for attaching a decorative plate to a clip. 2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, as this kind, Japanese Utility Model Publication No.
No. 7-5187, No. 6-6958, No. 3-5
The device of JP 4940 is known. 57-5
No. 187 discloses that “a mounting hole is provided at an arbitrary position of a clip, and an alignment hole formed by separating or connecting to the mounting hole is formed of a synthetic resin having an upper surface as a decorative surface and a lower portion as a receiving portion. At the same time, a groove matching the thickness of the clip is provided on the piece, and a positioning projection is provided on the back side of the decorative surface of the piece. Or a writing instrument clip attached by press-fitting ". [0003] Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-6958 discloses that "a leg is attached to a cylindrical body and a decorative body made of synthetic resin is attached to the leg. The leg is formed by drilling an engaging hole for the decorative body. The decorative body is configured such that the decorative body engages with the engaging hole of the leg rod and is exposed on the front side of the leg rod. An engaging tongue that abuts and engages with the rod protrudes from the front portion, and an engaging edge that engages with a side edge of the leg rod and is exposed on the front side is formed on the edge portion. And a clip for small articles characterized by the following. Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-54940 discloses a non-elastic metal clip in which a concave groove having flanges on both side edges is provided on the back surface and a locking projection is provided at the bottom of the concave groove. Body and
And a mounting member having a mounting piece provided with a locking hole formed by press-fitting into the concave groove and locked by the locking projection. Problems to be Solved by the Invention
No. is attached so that pieces are stacked on the clip,
When viewed from the side, there is a problem that the clip is not visible and the appearance is not good, and it is necessary to bend the piece when mounting the piece, and the mounting is troublesome. In Jitsuhei 6-6958, only a part of the decorative body is exposed on the surface of the clip, and the appearance is not good. When the decorative body is mounted, it is necessary to position the rear portion to bend the decorative body and the mounting is troublesome. There was a problem. Real fairness 3
No. 54940 discloses that although the clip body and the mounting member are both made of metal, and both side surfaces of the mounting member are surrounded by the clip body, the lower end is free, so that the clip body can be extended upward for a long time. There has been a problem that play is likely to occur between the two when repeatedly raised. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a clip for a writing implement that can be easily and securely attached to a clip with a good appearance of a decorative plate. A plate-shaped metal clip having an engaging piece, a longitudinal groove in which the clip is arranged, and a locking hole for engaging the engaging piece of the clip in the longitudinal groove;
A flange is provided on the groove wall of the longitudinal groove at a distance corresponding to the thickness of the clip, and a rear end of the clip is provided at a rear end of the longitudinal groove behind the locking hole at a distance corresponding to the thickness of the clip. A decorative plate made of a synthetic resin provided with an insertion portion, and press-fits the clip from the front of the longitudinal groove of the decorative plate, and inserts the rear end of the clip, the insertion portion of the decorative plate, and the engagement piece of the clip. The gist of the present invention is a writing instrument clip in which a locking hole of a decorative plate, an intermediate portion of the clip, and a flange of the decorative plate are engaged. FIG. 2 shows one of the clip and the decorative plate rotated by 180 ° for ease of explanation. Reference numeral 1 denotes a plate-shaped metal clip having an engagement piece 2. In the examples of FIGS. 1 and 2, notches are provided in a U-shape and the notched portions are erected in an inclined manner in the examples of FIGS. 1 and 2, and the cross-sectional shape is as shown in FIG. 3. Any shape may be employed as long as the shape is easy to press-fit into a decorative plate described later and is difficult to come out. Reference numeral 3 denotes a decorative plate made of synthetic resin having a longitudinal groove 4 in which the clip 1 is disposed, and a locking hole 5 for engaging the engaging piece 2 of the clip 1 in the longitudinal groove 4. is there. The groove wall of the longitudinal groove 4 of the decorative plate 3 is spaced from the groove bottom by the thickness of the clip 1 to form a flange 6
Is formed. Further, at the rear end of the longitudinal groove 4 behind the locking hole 5, an interval corresponding to the thickness of the clip 1 is provided from the groove bottom, and an insertion portion 7 at the rear end of the clip 1 is provided. In addition, although the flange 6 of the decorative plate 3 was formed in front of the locking hole 5 in the figure,
It may be formed behind the locking hole 5 or backward from the front of the locking hole 5. Further, the engaging piece 2 of the clip 1
The collar 6 and the insertion part 7 of the decorative plate 3 can be variously modified. Although one engaging piece 2 is formed in FIGS. 1 and 2, a plurality of engaging pieces 2 may be formed as shown in FIG. 4 (in this case, the same number of locking holes 5 of the decorative plate 3 are provided). , And the flange 6 is shown in FIGS.
Is formed only on the groove wall of the longitudinal groove 4 in front of the locking hole 5, but this flange is formed not only in front of the locking hole 5 but also in a rear portion of the locking hole 5 as shown in FIG. The flange 6 shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 5 may be formed in an inversely tapered shape as shown in FIG. 6, or both walls of the longitudinal groove 4 may be formed. Alternatively, the flange 6 formed in the above may be connected. Although the insertion portion 7 is formed in a lid shape to cover the entire rear end portion of the longitudinal groove 4 in the drawing, it is not shaped to partially cover the rear end portion of the longitudinal groove 4 like the flange portion. If necessary, a groove may be formed so that the rear end of the clip 1 and the rear end of the decorative plate 3 are integrated without being separated. Other various modifications are possible. Next, a method of attaching the decorative plate to the clip will be described. When the clip 1 is press-fitted from the front of the longitudinal groove 4 of the decorative plate 3, the engaging piece 2 of the clip 1 and the locking hole 5 of the decorative plate 3 are engaged. The rear end portion 1 and the insertion portion 7 of the decorative plate 3, and the middle portion of the clip 1 and the flange portion 6 of the decorative plate 3 are engaged with each other. That is, the clip 1 and the decorative plate 3 are engaged at least at three places, and both can be reliably fixed. The clip for a writing instrument according to the present invention has a plate-shaped metal clip having an engagement piece and a longitudinal groove in which the clip is disposed, and the clip is engaged with the longitudinal groove. A locking hole for engaging with the mating piece is provided, a flange is provided on the groove wall of the longitudinal groove at an interval corresponding to the thickness of the clip, and a clip is provided at a rear end of the longitudinal groove behind the locking hole. A decorative plate made of synthetic resin with a gap of the thickness of the clip and provided with an insertion portion at the rear end of the clip, and press-fits the clip from the front of the longitudinal groove of the decorative plate. Insertion portion, the engaging piece of the clip and the locking hole of the decorative plate, and the intermediate portion of the clip and the flange of the decorative plate are engaged, so that the decorative plate looks good on the clip, and It can be easily and securely attached.
