Patent ID: 7921525

Claim:
An object securing apparatus, the apparatus comprising: a binder clip having a “U” shaped spring section, a first arm being contiguous and extending from a first end of the spring section, and a second arm being contiguous and extending from a second end of the spring section, wherein a first arm distal end of the first arm and a second arm distal end of the second arm meet at a binder clip gripping section providing a gripping force; a first cantilevered member hingeably coupled to the first arm distal end; a second cantilevered member hingeably coupled to the second arm distal end; an attachment tab comprising a dense hook and loop material, the attachment tab being secured to the second arm, originating at a location along the second arm, across the second arm distal end, and extending outward from the distal end of the second arm, the attachment tab oriented with a mating surface exposed; and a cantilever clearance provided in the attachment tab, the clearance being shaped around the second cantilevered member wherein the attachment tab is detached from the second cantilevered member, ensuring an unencumbered and independent pivotal motion of the second cantilevered member.
