.~ Having either discrete flaccid or thin, nonbiasing, integral, connecting hinge
DEFINITION
Classification: 24/487
Having either discrete flaccid or thin, nonbiasing, integral, connecting hinge:
(under subclass 455) Clasp*, clip*, or support-clamp* having two opposed gripping members connected by either (1) a separate flaccid* connector, or (2) a unitary, relatively thin, nonbiasing, connecting portion which has both (a) its length no longer than its width (i.e., not elongated) and (b)
a bending segment about which one of the gripping members moves in a pivoting manner (i.e., similar to a conventional pivot pin arrangement).
(1) Note. The connector's or connecting portion's length is considered to be the distance it extends between the opposed gripping members while its width is transverse to its length and larger than the similarly transverse thickness.
(2) Note. Because of the short length of the connector or connector portion, it only bends at a single location along its length.
