Abstract:
A clamp for headwear and other objects. The clamp includes a movable arm pivotably coupled to a fixed arm, which is coupleable to a surface. An object can be inserted into the gap between the lower ends of the two arms. A spreader element in an extended position maintains the lower ends of the arms spread apart. A spring exerts a force on the upper ends of the arms so as to push the lower ends of the arms together. Insertion of an object into the gap moves the spreader into a withdrawn position, allowing the lower ends of the arms to grip the object. Pushing the upper ends of the arms together releases the object and replaces the spreader element in the extended position.

Claim (Index 8):
A clamp, comprising:\n a fixed arm coupleable to a surface, and having an upper end and a lower end; a movable arm, pivotably coupled to the fixed arm, and having an upper end and a lower end; a spreader disposed between the fixed arm and the movable arm, the spreader being movable between an extended position and a withdrawn position; wherein, when the spreader is in an extended position, a gap is defined between the lower end of the fixed arm and the lower end of the moveable arm; and wherein, upon insertion of an object into the gap, the spreader is moved into a withdrawn position by the object, thereby allowing the lower end of the movable arm to move towards the lower end of the fixed arm and to engage the object therebetween.
