Clip apparatus

A clip apparatus comprising:

• a housing having a base having an inner surface and a frame extending away from the inner surface, the frame defining a central cavity with a first and a second opposing passage;
• a first retention arm having a body with a pivoting leg extending radially outward from the body and a retention leg extending radially outward from the body, radially spaced apart from the pivoting leg, the body rotatably coupled to the frame to rotate about a first axis of rotation, wherein in a retracted orientation, at least a portion of the pivoting leg extending outside of the cavity through the first opposing passage and through rotation is positionable in a deployed orientation wherein the retention leg extends outside the cavity through the first opposing passage so as to be spaced apart from the base, to, in turn, be in a position to sandwich an outside surface therebetween;
• a second retention arm having a body with a pivoting leg extending radially outward from the body and a retention leg extending radially outward from the body, radially spaced apart from the pivoting leg, the body rotatably coupled to the frame to rotate about a second axis of rotation spaced apart from the first axis of rotation, at least a portion of the pivoting leg extending outside of the cavity through the second opposing passage and through rotation is positionable in a deployed orientation wherein the retention leg extends outside of the cavity through the second opposing passage so as to be spaced apart from the base, to, in turn, be in a position to sandwich the outside surface therebetween;
• and
• an arm locking assembly structurally configured to retain the first and second retention arms in the deployed orientation.
