Clip-clamp with top lock device and method
A clip-clamp with top lock device for preferably closing and sealing bags and the like. The clip-clamp with top lock device includes a closure assembly including a pair of lever members spatially arranged and facing one another and also including an interconnector extending between the lever members, and further including at least one biased member connected to the lever members for memory retentiveness and to bias the lever members about and seal an opening of a container such as a bag.
1. A clip-clamp with top lock device as comprising:
a closure assembly including a pair of lever members spatially arranged and facing one another and also including an interconnector extending between the lever members, and further including at least one biased member connected to the lever members to bias the lever members about and seal an opening of a container such as a bag as a result of memory retention, wherein each of the lever members includes a handle portion having a back end, and also includes a front portion having a front end, wherein the closure assembly also includes first and second closure members engagable to one another and attached to and extending from the front ends of the lever members to seal a portion of the container therebetween, wherein the first closure member has an outer end, wherein each of the first and second closure members is angled relative to the lever member to which the respective first and second closure members is attached, wherein the second closure member includes a proximate portion angled away from the first closure member when the lever members are in a biased position and the proximate portion of the second closure member is disposed parallel to the first closure member when the first and second closure members are engaged with one another.
2. The clip-clamp with top lock device as described in claim 1 , wherein the second closure member also has an intermediate portion integrally attached to and extending perpendicular to the proximate portion with the intermediate portion extending in a direction of the first closure member.
3. The clip-clamp with top lock device as described in claim 2 , wherein the second closure member also has a distal end portion having an end and integrally attached to and extending perpendicular to the intermediate portion with the distal end portion spaced from the proximate portion of the second closure member and engagable and lockable with the first closure member to tightly seal the container therebetween.
4. The clip-clamp with top lock device as described in claim 3 , wherein the first closure member is disposed between the distal end portion and the proximate portion of the second closure member when the outer end of the first closure member is engaged with and clipped to the end of the distal end portion of the second closure member.
