A hook part includes a hook main body; a latch for closing the hook main body; and a shaft to which the base end of the latch is integrally coupled, the shaft extending away from the hook main body along the rotational axis such that coupling between the attachment part and the hook part is ensured. A latch includes a spring portion provided closer to the base end of the latch; and a latch main body coupled with the coupled portion via the spring portion. The spring portion is elastically configured to enable urging of the latch away from the hook main body. The connection point of the latch and the shaft is farther from the hook main body along the rotational axis than the connection point of the hook main body and the coupled portion.

SNAP HOOK

A snap hook includes a frame, a gate, and a screwdriver blade. The frame has a first hook portion and a second hook portion located on different sides. The gate has an abutting end abutting against an end of the first hook portion. The screwdriver blade is pivotally connected to the frame, and a working end is formed on an end of the screwdriver blade whereby the snap hook could be engaged with two objects through the first hook portion and the second hook portion. The gate blocks a side opening of the first hook portion, and therefore the object hanged in the first hook portion would not fall out accidentally. Furthermore, the screwdriver blade increases the added value of the snap hook.

FASTENER
