Multi-use binder clip
A binder clip to deliver method of carrying stack of papers can be further implemented outside its application zone, with the redesign of the previous annexed wings and clip body of U.S. Pat. No. 9,199,506 introduces the Multi-Use Binder Clip with moveable protruded structures; that suspends along the folded edges of the clip body with incision cuts at the contour center plane and clip body sides; which protruded structure is formed by shaping a nominal diameter wire derives two half loops and one full loop wire components, lengths at each sides, shape, angle, and bend counter to each other, hinges to the clip body along with prior art grip handles; where the redesigned binder clip provides many more applicable functions.
Magnetic clip
A clip for selectively gripping objects includes a first body member having a forward portion, a rearward portion and a middle portion disposed between the forward and rearward portions. The first body member includes an exteriorly facing surface and an interiorly facing surface, with the forward portion including an interiorly facing gripping jaw, and the middle portion including a strengthening member. A second body member includes a forward portion, a rearward portion, and a middle portion disposed between the forward and rearward portion. Second body member also includes an exteriorly facing surface and an interiorly facing surface, a forward portion that includes an interiorly facing gripping jaw, and a middle portion that includes a strengthening member. A biasing member urges the gripping jaws of the first and second body members into engagement. A pivot assembly pivotably couples the first body member to the second body member to permit the gripping jaws to pivot between an engaged position and a released position. The first strengthening member has an arcuately convex surface and the second strengthening member includes an arcuately concave surface that is sized and positioned to slideably engage the arcuately convex surface of the first body.

QUICK ATTACH ACCESSORY MOUNT
An accessory mount having a clamp has an upper arm pivotably connected to a lower arm. The upper arm has a framework of a plurality of legs and cross members joined together and configured to flex with respect to each other when placed under a load. A tab extends at an angle from one end of the framework. A hinge plate is positioned between the framework and the tab. The lower arm has an elongate web and a tab extending at an angle from one end of the elongate web. A hinge plate may be positioned between the elongate web and the tab and may be attached to the first hinge plate at a pivot connection. A bias member is attached to and positioned between the upper arm and the lower arm to bias the upper arm and the lower arm together about the pivot connection between the hinge plates. Each of the upper and lower arms is formed as unitary, monocoque construction.
Money clip device
A money clip device, including: a central body portion; and three or more elongate arm portions extending radially from the central body portion and configured to retain an item to be held. The central body portion and the three or more elongate arm portions collectively define a space in which the item to be held is retained. Optionally, the money clip device also includes a wallet insert disposed within the central body portion and the three or more elongate arm portions. Optionally, at least one of the three or more elongate arm portions is manufactured from a substantially flexible material and comprises a pull tab by which the elongate arm portion may be grasped by a user. The money clip device further includes a decorative insignia disposed on one or more of the central body portion and the three or more elongate arm portions.

Clasping device for infusion bags III
A clasping device for anchoring beverage infusion bags inside a cup. The clasping device is tied with a string to the infusion bag and is mounted on top of the cup's rim. Two grippers with serrated surfaces grip at opposite locations on both sides of the cup's wall by pressing the wall with sharp protrusions which intensify the friction force between the grippers and the cup. The grippers' pressing forces originate from elastic forces which are created from forcing the gap between the grippers to widen when the clasping device is mounted on top of the cup's rim. The clasping device is manufactured from flat, resilient plate and has flat structure which enables to pack it along with the infusion bag in a flat package. An optional hollow figurine, which contains liquid additive can be attached as well. The string tying method into slits is efficient and inexpensive.

CORNER PAPERCLIP
A reusable paperclip can accommodate a large range of paper stack sizes. It is configured to bind a stack from one corner without becoming distorted in shape when used on a large stack. The clip has vertical members to prevent horizontal and vertical movement of the stacked papers and connected horizontal members to apply pressure to the surfaces of the stack to frictionally bind the stacked papers. The clip is easily placed and removed by the user, and allows a person to view all information on a standard formatted page with little to no obstruction of the printed information. The clip also allows a user to flip though a stack of papers and easily remove individual papers from the stack or insert additional pages without disturbing the sheets and without the need to remove or adjust the position of the clip.
