ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an integrally molded plastic clip for supporting coils in a condensor coil grid of a refrigerator or the like, comprising a mounting bracket for mounting said clip to a surface of the refrigerator and articulated sections having a hook for connection to a first coil segment of the coils and movable from a first retracted position wherein the first coil segment is closely adjacent the surface to a second extended position spaced outwardly therefrom. The articulated means comprise two sections, a first section pivotally connected at one end to the bracket and pivotally connected at its other end to an end of a second section, the other end of the second section includes the hook. Lock means extend from the mounting bracket below the hook for detachably locking to the clip a second coil segment of the coil grid below the first coil segment when the clip is in the first position. When the second coil segment is locked in the lock means, the first and second sections are generally parallel with the mounting means and the first coil segment and second coil segment are substantially vertically aligned. The lock means includes a releasable tongue and the first coil segment is connected with the hook such that when the lock tongue is released, the first and second coil segments move outwardly in their substantially vertical alignment with relative rotational movement between the hook and first coil segment.
