The clip is formed of resilient plastic material and includes first and second parts pivotally connected by a connecting member. Each of the parts includes a gripping portion and a locking portion. Each of the gripping portions includes first and second connected portions, at least one of which has a gripping surface. A locking part is pivotally mounted to one of the locking portions for movement relative to the other locking portion between locked and unlocked positions. The locking part is adapted to engage the other of the locking portions in the locking position. Movement of the locking part toward the locked position causes the gripping surfaces to move toward each other to retain the article therebetween.

A clothes drying hanger may comprise a main body, a plurality of clothespins, and a plurality of spacers. The main body has a first bar and a second bar which are parallel and spaced apart by a preferred distance, and at least two supporting bars are secured therebetween. A shifting board, which is parallel with the second bar, is movably abutted between an inner surface of the second bar and two ends of the two supporting bars close to the second bar. A handle is connected to an outer surface of the second bar through two parallel connecting rods which further penetrate through the second bar to connect to the shifting board such that through pressing the handle, the connecting rods can drive the shifting board to have parallel shift toward the first bar, thereby simultaneously releasing all of the clothes hanged on the clothespins by a single action.

A clipping apparatus is described herein. The clipping apparatus may include a u-shaped clasp and a tab. The clasp may include an open end and a closed end, a first side and a second side, and a tongue. The tab may be coupled to, and extend from, the closed end of the clasp. The first side may include a wall extending from the closed end to the open end. The second side may include two prongs extending from the closed end to the open end. The tongue may be rotatably connected to the two prongs between the two prongs. The tab may include a first opening and a second opening. The first opening may be disposed in the tab adjacent to the closed end of the clasp. The second opening may be disposed in the tab at a distal end to the tab from the clasp.

A laundry treatment apparatus includes a cabinet having an introduction/discharge opening, a drawer configured so as to be discharged from the cabinet through the introduction/discharge opening, a through-hole formed in an upper surface of the drawer, a tub that is located inside the drawer and that defines a space that is configured to receive water, an introduction aperture formed in an upper surface of the tub, the introduction aperture being located under the through-hole, a drum rotatably provided inside the tub for receiving laundry supplied to the introduction aperture, a door that is configured to open and close the introduction aperture, the door being coupled to one of the drawer or the tub, and a door sensing unit that is configured to determine whether the door is opened during a state in which the drawer is inserted into the cabinet.

A clip for managing laundry items, the clip having front and rear arms flexibly joined by an elbow and shaped to form an internal loop. The front arm terminates in a dogleg shaped to minimize catching on fabric, and the rear arm terminates in a tongue shaped to ease the clip onto fabric. The dogleg and tongue angle away from an opening to accommodate fabric and guide it into a gap between the arms. The elbow flexibly holds the arms apart to form the gap, which can expand to accept the fabric and hold it in place. The arms also include teeth to improve friction between the fabric and the clip. A method of using a system of laundry clips to improve laundry results, including folding a laundry item lengthwise and attaching a plurality of laundry clips on the item to hold loose sides in place.

A clip includes a first body and a second body, the first body including a first part, a second part, and a first hinge through which the first and second parts are joined, the second body including a movable portion and a second hinge, the movable portion being joined at one end thereof to the first part through the second hinge so as to be swingable in a plane defined by the first and second parts, a part of the first body and a part of the second body defining a lock for locking the movable portion to the second part, the movable portion having such a shape that there is formed a space between the first body and the movable portion when the movable portion and the second part are locked to each other through the lock, the first and second bodies being integrally formed of an elastic material.
