Abstract
A clip that is configured to be reversibly attached to a multi-purpose tool is disclosed. The clip includes a body that has a top area and a bottom area. The bottom area includes a concave section that is configured to contact a person wearing the clip and to facilitate immobilizing the clip on the person. The top area includes a loop formed by two parallel and integrally connected sides, with a space located between the two parallel and integrally connected sides being configured to receive a portion of the person's clothing. The top area further includes an attachment means that is configured to reversibly connect the clip to a key ring hole of the multi-purpose tool.

A clip that is configured to be attached to a multi-purpose tool with a first end including a key ring hole and a curved surface, wherein the clip comprises a body that includes a first area and a second area, wherein:
- (a) the second area includes a concave section that is configured to contact a person wearing the clip and to facilitate immobilizing the clip on the person;
- (b) the first area includes a loop formed by two integrally connected sides, wherein a space located between the two integrally connected sides is configured to receive a portion of the person's clothing, wherein a first one of the integrally connected sides within the first area is connected to an attachment means that is configured to connect the clip to the key ring hole of the multi-purpose tool, wherein the attachment means protrudes away from the space located between the two integrally connected sides;
- and
- (c) the first one of the integrally connected sides is connected to a protruding cap, which (i) is oriented to protrude away from the space located between the two integrally connected sides;
- and (ii) includes a curved surface configured to cooperate with the curved surface of the multi-purpose tool to allow for the protruding cap to nestably reside adjacent to the first end of the multi-purpose tool.
A clip and a multi-purpose tool combination, wherein the multi-purpose tool comprises a first end including a key ring hole and a curved surface, wherein the clip comprises a body that includes a first area and a second area, wherein:
- (a) the second area includes a concave section that is configured to contact a person wearing the clip and to facilitate immobilizing the clip on the person;
- (b) the first area includes a loop formed by two integrally connected sides, wherein a space located between the two integrally connected sides is configured to receive a portion of the person's clothing, wherein a first one of the integrally connected sides within the first area is connected to an attachment means that is configured to connect the clip to the key ring hole of the multi-purpose tool, wherein the attachment means protrudes away from the space located between the two integrally connected sides;
- and
- (c) the first one of the integrally connected sides is connected to a protruding cap, which (i) is oriented to protrude away from the space located between the two integrally connected sides;
- and (ii) includes a curved surface configured to cooperate with the curved surface of the multi-purpose tool to allow for the protruding cap to nestably reside adjacent to the first end of the multi-purpose tool.
