Abstract
The one-piece plastic clip comprises two clamping members and two spreadable handles, each of which is connected to one of the clamping members, a pivot bearing and a U-shaped compression spring connected between the ends of the handles. The pivot bearing is structured to be assembled by snapping-together. Advantageously the plastic clip is made with polyoxymethylene. Sensors including temperatures sensors may be located in the clamping members. A Contact-Reed can be located in one clamping member and a permanent magnet can be located in another clamping member so that unintended loosening of the clip can be detected. The clip may be structured for use as a cloths pin or a hair clip for use in a permanent wave treatment.
