Abstract:
1. A suspension tag comprising a tag body and a fitting cap, the tag body having a lower end forming a receptacle seat defining a bore and having an end surface on which a circumferential retention flange is formed to receive insertion of the fitting cap therein in a rotatable and angularly positionable manner, the fitting cap forming a receiving frame section that is made hollow and is configured to be adapted to receive an insertion portion of a tool therein, the receiving frame section comprising a top panel having an inside surface to which a sloped projection is mounted at a location corresponding to and having a shape complementary to a hole defined in the insertion portion of the tool to receive a spring-biased sphere in a partially projecting but retractable manner, and two side panels that are spaced from the top panel and connected thereto by curved side connections to provide displaceability to the top panel with respect to the side panels, wherein when the tool is inserted into the receiving frame section of the fitting cap, the insertion portion of the tool is brought into contact with the sloped projection and thus forcibly displacing and elastically deforming the top panel upward to allow the sloped projection to move to and engage the hole defined in the insertion portion of the tool thereby securely retaining the tool to the suspension tag and wherein to remove the tool from the suspension tag, the side connections are cut off to separate the top panel from the side panels so as to disengage the sloped projection from the hole and thus releasing the insertion portion of the tool from the tag body.
