ABSTRACT:
A resiliently biassed clamp for use as a clothespin or for incorporation in a garment hanger is formed of two identical and interchangeable jaws, each having an inset trunnion flange and a flush trunnion flange interfitting in pivoting facing juxtaposition with the inset trunnion flange on the opposed jaw, forming a flush, snag-proof external profile and a cleanly sculptured appearance. A central pivot pin or hanger rod secures the juxtaposed apertured flanges of the identical mating interfitting jaws together, resisting the clamping force imposed on the garment by a torsion coil spring, and forming a central fulcrum for the angular opening and closing movement of the pivoting clamps jaws. The coil spring substantially fills the space between the mating pairs of jaw flanges, readily maintaning the jaws laterally positioned for efficient clamping engagement.
