Abstract

See full text

The disclosure describes a clip which has particular application, for example, in the medical arts. The clip comprises a hollow, cylindrical hub which includes first and second hub sections defined by a plane transverse to the axis of the hub. A pin joins the first and second hub sections and allows them to rotate independently about the pin. First and second legs are joined to the first and second hub sections, respectively, each leg including a clamping surface. The clamping surface on the first leg opposes the clamping surface on the second leg. A spring mechanism biases the clamping surfaces together and includes first and second ends. A mechanism disposed on the first and second hub sections engages the first and second ends, respectively, of the spring, and a lever coupled to the first and second hub sections spreads the clamping surfaces apart.
