Clip

A clip comprising:

• a plate spring member having:
• a leg portion bent in a V-shape;
• and
• flange portions outwardly extending from both ends of the leg portion;
• a pin member having:
• a shaft portion formed to be inserted inside the plate spring member;
• and
• a head portion formed at a proximal end of the shaft portion,
• wherein the leg portion of the plate spring member has:
• a vent portion;
• inclined portions obliquely outwardly extending from both ends of the bent portion;
• engagement portions inwardly extending from distal ends of the inclined portions;
• and
• abutting portions to be abutted against the shaft portion of the pin member, the abutting portions being connected between the distal ends of the inclined portions and proximal ends of the flange portions;
• and
• wherein the shaft pardon of the pin member has:
• a diameter-expanded portion provided at a proximal end side of the pin member adjacent to the head portion;
• and
• a diameter-reduced portion provided at a distal end side of the pin member as compared with the diameter-expanded portion,
• wherein the leg portion is insertable into a mounting hole formed in a mounting subject, in a state where the plate spring member is assembled with the pin member so that the abutting portions abut against the diameter-reduced portion, and
• wherein, in a state where the flange portions of the plate spring member abut against a front side circumference of the mounting hole, the diameter-expanded portion of the shaft portion is caused to abut against the abutting portions to expand the leg portion in accordance with a further pushing operation of the pin member so that the engagement portions are engaged with aback side circumference of the mounting hole.
