Clip for object grouping and organized storage
A flexible clip is provided which has a flexible body running between opposing ends. The clip is foldable to an as-used position at a central portion thereof to a removable engagement of two end portions using mating fasteners such as magnets. The clip in the as-used position is removably engageable with both planar and three dimensional objects.
1. A clip comprising:
a flexible body having a first end opposite a second end and having opposing side edges extending therebetween;
said body having a first side surface opposite a second side surface;
a central portion of said body positioned between said first and second end;
said body foldable at said central portion to an as-used positioning engageable with an object, by positioning said first side surface adjacent a first end portion at said first end, in a removable engagement with said first side surface at a second end portion adjacent said second end;
a first magnet positioned within said body in-between said first side surface and said second side surface and adjacent said first end being positionable to a cooperative engagement with a second magnet positioned in-between said first side surface and said second side surface adjacent said second end of said body, said cooperative engagement maintaining said body in said as-used positioning engaged with said object;
a rib projecting from said body at said first end thereof, said rib engaged at opposite ends with an edge surface of said body;
an aperture positioned between a first edge of said rib communicating between said opposite ends thereof and an edge surface of said body running between said opposite ends of said rib, and
whereby said clip is removably engageable with an object by folding said body at said central portion to position said object in-between opposing portions of said first surface at said first end and said second end and engaging said first fastener with said second fastener.
2. A clip comprising:
a flexible body having a first end opposite a second end and having opposing side edges extending therebetween;
said body having a first side surface opposite a second side surface;
a central portion of said body positioned between said first and second end;
said body foldable at said central portion to an as-used positioning engageable with an object, by positioning said first side surface adjacent a first end portion at said first end, in a removable engagement with said first side surface at a second end portion adjacent said second end;
a first magnet positioned on said body adjacent said first end positionable to a cooperative engagement with a second magnet positioned adjacent said second end of said body, said cooperative engagement maintaining said body in said as-used positioning engaged with said object;
a rib projecting from said body at said first end thereof, said rib engaged at opposite ends with an edge surface of said body; and
an aperture positioned between a first edge of said rib communicating between said opposite ends thereof and an edge surface of said body running between said opposite ends of said rib;
said first end portion and said second end portion of said body having a first thickness in-between said first side surface and said second side surface,
said central portion having a second thickness between said first side surface and said second side surface, said second thickness being less than said first thickness; and
whereby said clip is removably engageable with an object by folding said body at said central portion to position said object in-between opposing portions of said first surface at said first end and said second end and engaging said first fastener with said second fastener.
3. The clip of claim 1 additionally comprising:
said first end portion and said second end portion of said body having a first thickness in between said first side surface and said second side surface; and
said central portion having a second thickness between said first side surface and said second side surface, said second thickness being less than said first thickness.
4. The clip of claim 2 wherein said central portion is defined by a tapering depression depending into said first side surface.
5. The clip of claim 3 wherein said central portion is defined by a tapering depression depending into said first side surface.
