Therefore, the conventional clip requires two clips, which increases the cost, requires time and man-hours to attach and detach the clip, and furthermore, the connecting part of the clip is connected to the V-shaped protrusion 9 and the V-shaped groove 10. They are connected only by the fitting force of , and have the disadvantage that they are likely to come off due to external forces 76 such as transportation, dropping, etc.

The present invention eliminates these drawbacks, and its purpose is to reduce costs by using only one clip, and to easily and quickly attach the clip to the storage container body.
The purpose is to make it possible to attach and detach the clip, and to prevent it from coming off even under the action of external force.

The clip for fixing the lid of a storage container of the present invention has a plurality of lid presser claw holders, each of which has a lid presser claw part that presses the lid of the storage container and is formed with its tip facing inward, and the lid presser claw holders are arranged opposite to each other. In the clip for fixing the lid of a storage container, the base frame part has a detachable claw on each of the other opposing sides where the lid holding claw holding part is not provided. It has a stopper part and a presser arm part, and the retaining claw part has a width smaller than the length of the side surface of the base frame part, and
The presser arm has a slope portion that slopes upward from the base frame portion, and a retaining claw that is connected to the tip of the slope portion and comes into contact with the bottom of the storage container, and the presser arm portion has a length of the side surface of the base frame portion. The retaining claw part and the presser arm part have a width smaller than that of the base frame part, and are formed to protrude in a straight line substantially horizontally with the base frame part, and the retaining claw part and the presser arm part are formed in a straight line on one side and the other side. It is characterized by being arranged according to the position.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail based on examples.

FIG. 4 is a sketch showing an embodiment of the present invention. That is, the clip for fixing the lid of a storage container of the present invention includes a lid presser claw holding part 30 having a lid presser claw part 1, a base frame part 4, and a slope part 5a from both side surfaces 1a of the base frame part. It is composed of a retaining claw part 2 which is formed to protrude with substantially the same width through the retaining claw part 2, and a presser arm part 3 which is formed to protrude from the side opposite to the said retaining claw part 2, and the retaining claw part The part 2 is composed of a retaining pawl 2a and a slope part 5a that connects the retaining pawl 2a and the base frame part 4 and has an inclination angle 5 and is formed to be inclined upward from the base frame part.

FIG. 5 is a sectional view showing how the clip is used in one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 6 is a sectional view of the clip shown in FIG.
It is an AA sectional view. The clip shown in FIG. 1 is attached to the storage container body 100, and the storage container 60 and the lid 50 are held together by the lid holding claw 1 and the retaining claw 2.
is shown in a state in which the retaining claws 2 are inside the bottom edge 61 of the storage container.

The operation of attaching the clip to the storage container body in one embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG.

The storage container body 100 is inserted between the lid holding claw part 1 and the base frame part 4, and then the holding force 70 and the pushing force 71 are simultaneously applied to the retaining claw part 2 while moving the clip to remove it. Stopper claw part 2
The attachment of the clip is completed by passing the clip through the bottom edge 61 of the storage container and inserting the tip 6 of the retaining claw part inside the bottom edge 61 of the storage container.

With reference to FIG. 8, a state in which the clip does not come off the storage container body when an external force 74 is applied in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 will be explained.

When external force 75 is applied, the clip moves to the right in FIG. That is, the storage container body 100
is held between the lid holding claw part 1 and the retaining claw part 2, and even if the clip is moved from the storage container body 100 due to external forces 74 and 75 acting on the clip,
The tip 6 of the retaining claw interferes with the bottom edge 61 of the storage container and does not come off easily. Furthermore, the retaining claws 2 are provided on both sides of the base frame 4, and since they are integrated with the base frame 4, they have rigidity, and are structured so that they do not easily come off the bottom edge 61 of the storage container due to deformation. .

Next, referring to FIG. 9, the operation of removing the clip from the container body in one embodiment of the present invention will be explained.

A pressing force 72 is applied to the presser arm 3, and on the principle of leverage, the slope angle 5 of the retaining claw serves as a fulcrum, and the tip 6 of the retaining claw rotates, causing the tip 6 of the retaining claw to press against the bottom of the storage container. When the clip rotates to the outside of the edge 61, a pushing force 73 is further applied to move the clip from the storage container body 100, allowing the retaining claw portion 2 to pass from the bottom edge 61 of the storage container, and then to remove the lid from the storage container body 100. By releasing the inserted state between the presser claw portion 1 and the base frame 4, the removal of the clip is completed.

As explained above, in the present invention, the lid presser claw holding part, the base frame part, the retaining claw parts provided on each side surface of the base frame part, and the presser arm part are integrally formed. The retaining pawl portion projects from the side surface of the base frame portion with a width smaller than the length of the side surface, and is connected by an upwardly inclined sloped portion to have a step. In other words, the base frame part and the retaining claw are connected via the slope part, which allows the storage container body to be easily fixed with a single clip, and can be attached and detached in a short time. Since it does not come off easily, it has the following effects in terms of the clip attachment/detachment work and the clip function.

In other words, by providing a single clip with a retaining claw and a presser arm at predetermined positions, (1) a single clip can secure the fixing and removing functions, and multiple clips can be used to secure the lid; It is not necessary and the lid can be fixed at low cost.

(2) Anyone can easily attach and detach the clips in a short time because there is no need for difficult fitting operations.

(3) Since the retaining claws are formed integrally with the base frame and are placed on both sides of the base frame, they do not come off easily, and the presser arms are also placed on both sides. Since it is installed, it can be easily removed.

The explanation so far is an example of the present invention,
The slope angle of the retaining claw portion may be any angle such as a round angle.

As described above, the clip of the present invention is useful in the work of attaching and detaching the clip and in preventing the clip from coming off.
