Clip, connected clip, and seat cover covering structure
Slits ( 36 ) are formed on a wall part ( 28 ) of a clip ( 16 ), and a locking piece ( 34 ) is made elastically deformable. Only the locking piece ( 34 ) is elastically deformed outward when a suspender ( 22 ) is locked in the locking piece ( 34 ). The locking piece ( 34 ) is restored when an upper face ( 22 A) of the suspender ( 22 ) passes a top part of a locking claw ( 38 ) of the locking piece ( 34 ). The suspender ( 22 ) is thus prevented from coming out, and the suspender ( 22 ) is locked in the clip ( 16 ).
1. A clip, comprising:
a board-form base part adapted to be held on a foamed material;
a pair of wall parts erected on said base part and facing each other, each of the pair of wall parts including two side portions, each having a protruding part formed on an inner face thereof and extending horizontally in a width direction thereof, and a middle portion arranged between the two side portions;
locking parts, each being elastically deformably attached to each of the middle portions and spaced from each of the two side portions to form slits therebetween; and
locking claws, each projecting from an inner face of said locking part and being adapted to lock an anchoring member attached to a seat cover covering said foamed material and inserted between said wall parts,
wherein the middle portion connects upper portions of the two side portions, and each of the locking parts extends downwardly from the middle portion of each of the pair of wall parts, and
an end face of each of the locking claws and two side portions of each of the pair of wall parts define a space, and the slits are communicated with the space and extend toward the middle portion to space each of the locking parts from each of the two side portions.
2. A clip according to claim 1 , wherein the inner faces of said side portions of the pair of wall parts and end faces of said locking claws define a space thereinside, and the space is adapted to have a shape same as an external shape of said anchoring member.
3. A clip according to claim 1 , wherein each of the locking parts includes a pointed part on an outer face of said locking part.
4. A clip according to claim 1 , wherein each of the protruding parts aligns with positions of end faces of said locking claws.
5. A clip according to claim 1 , wherein the base part includes at least two hole parts to which the foamed material enters.
6. A clip according to claim 1 , wherein each of the side portions of the pair of wall parts includes an R part provided on a base portion thereof and having a thickness to become gradually wide toward the base portion thereof.
7. A connected clip, comprising:
a board-form member or a linear-form member; and
the clip according to claim 1 , provided on the board-form member or the linear-form member.
8. A connected clip according to claim 7 , wherein said clip is provided on one end of said board-form member or said linear-form member, and a connecting part to mutually connect to another board-form member or linear-form member is provided on another end of the board-form member or linear-form member.
9. A seat cover covering structure, comprising:
the clip according to claim 1 , embedded in the foamed material;
the anchoring member to be inserted between the wall parts of said clip, and having a shape same as a shape of the space formed with the inner faces of said side portions of the pair of wall parts and end faces of said locking claws; and
a connecting member attached to the anchoring member and adapted to connect said seat cover with said anchoring member.
10. A seat cover covering structure, comprising:
the connected clip according to claim 9 , embedded in the foamed material;
the anchoring member to be inserted between the wall parts of said clip, and having a shape same as a shape of a space formed with the inner faces of said side portions of the pair of wall parts and end faces of said locking claws; and
a connecting member attached to the anchoring member and adapted to connect said seat cover with said anchoring member.
11. A seat cover covering structure according to claim 9 , wherein said anchoring member and said connecting member are integrally molded with resin.
12. A seat cover covering structure according to claim 10 , wherein said anchoring member and said connecting member are integrally molded with resin.
13. A clip according to claim 1 , wherein each of the side portions of the pair of wall parts includes a reinforced rib extending in an erected direction thereof, and triangular rib extending outwardly in a width direction thereof to have a width becoming gradually wide toward a base portion thereof.
14. A seat cover covering structure according to claim 9 , wherein the end faces of the locking claws and the protruding parts hold the anchoring member when the anchoring member is inserted between the pair of wall parts.
15. A clip according to claim 1 , wherein each of the protruding parts is arranged at a position same as a height of an end face of each of the locking claws, and has a length shorter than that of each of the locking claws in a protruding direction.
