Abstract
A clip structure for extracting electric signals for measurement, which is improved in accuracy and reliability, and which can be handled easily. In the clip structure, an operating member is rotatably supported in a hollow base member with one end projecting from the base member, and urged in a specified direction. A cylindrical member is provided at the front end of the base member. Elastic wires are stored in the cylindrical member and grip portions are formed in the front portions of the elastic wires, while the rear portions are fixed to a lower portion of the operating member. The grip portions are configured to project from the front end of the cylindrical member when pushed in a direction opposite to an urging force and rotated. A contact pin member is disposed at a lower portion of the base member. One end of the contact pin member is engaged with the rear end of the cylindrical member while the other end is projected from the base member. The portion where the one end of the contact pin member and the rear end of the cylindrical member engage with each other is connected by welding such as soldering. A core material such as steel is inserted into the contact pin member.
