Abstract
A holding device which serves as a multipurpose clamp in the household, in workshops etc., for the releasable holding of objects on walls, pieces of furniture and similar objects, as well as for holding of opened or closed doors. The holding device should be capable of being made from plastic, so it could be moved by a snapping process from the closed to the opened state and vice versa, and it should be developed such, that no phenomena of fatigue of the plastic material could occur, although considerable forces oppose a removal of the supported objects. For this purpose, the holding device has a bent or angular bending spring (10) and gripping parts (22, 26) which are interconnected by film-hinges (12, 13, 18) and, to be sure, in such a way that sections of the gripping parts, in the closing position, fit into the bending spring. See for this FIGS. 1 and 1a.
