ABSTRACT:
A device for mounting insignia, such as an embossed name plate, in a pocket of an article of clothing consists of a one-piece member including first and second spaced locating members and a clamping member which is integrally formed with the second locating member. The first locating member includes an inwardly facing locating surface having a laterally extending rounded hump thereon. The clamping member extends outwardly and upwardly from the second locating member toward the first locating member wherein a head portion thereof makes biased contact with the locating surface. The clamping member is biased toward the locating surface by means of an integrally formed curved torsion bar having an axis of flexure spaced away from the locating surface and extending in the direction of the lateral hump. The torsion bar is arcuate in shape and has symmetrical end portions which are arranged parallel to the axis of flexure thereby permitting bending flexure about the axis. The head portion includes a rectangular opening which interfittingly engages with the lateral hump on the locating surface. The hump and rectangular opening cooperate to securely capture a piece fabric positioned therebetween, and effectively prevent movement of the fabric once the device is secured in position.
