Kind Code:

Abstract:

A clip is provided with at least a head, a center support, an auxiliary support, elastic legs, engaging sections, and a cavity. The head has a shape capable of engaging with one surface of a member to which a mounting member is mounted. The center support is extended downward from the head and has a shape suitable to be inserted into a mounting hole. The auxiliary support is extended downward from the head in the same manner as the center support, and the base of the auxiliary support, said base being adapted to be inserted into the mounting hole, is formed integrally with both the head and the center support so as to be perpendicular to the center support. The pair of elastic legs, which expand in a V-shape, is interconnected with the tips of the center support and the auxiliary support and is formed in a shape which is turned back toward the head and the auxiliary support. The engaging sections which engage with the member to which a mounting member is mounted are provided to the tips of the elastic legs and are engaged with the mounting member or the other surface of the member to which the mounting member is mounted. The cavity is provided in the auxiliary support and is configured in such a manner that, when the elastic legs are deformed and inserted into the mounting hole, the cavity receives the deformed portions.
