See full text

A clip for selectively gripping objects includes a first body member having a forward portion, a rearward portion and a middle portion disposed between the forward and rearward portions. The first body member includes an exteriorly facing surface and an interiorly facing surface, with the forward portion including an interiorly facing gripping jaw, and the middle portion including a strengthening member. A second body member includes a forward portion, a rearward portion, and a middle portion disposed between the forward and rearward portion. Second body member also includes an exteriorly facing surface and an interiorly facing surface, a forward portion that includes an interiorly facing gripping jaw, and a middle portion that includes a strengthening member. A biasing member urges the gripping jaws of the first and second body members into engagement. A pivot assembly pivotably couples the first body member to the second body member to permit the gripping jaws to pivot between an engaged position and a released position. The first strengthening member has an arcuately convex surface and the second strengthening member includes an arcuately concave surface that is sized and positioned to slideably engage the arcuately convex surface of the first body.
