Abstract
A spring clip includes bosses and pivot holes on flanges at two opposite sides of each of two clamping members for connecting pivotally the clamping members wherein the flange bearing the boss at each side is sandwiched between two other flanges bearing the pivot holes, thereby preventing the bosses from being released easily from the pivot holes. A torsion spring is mounted conveniently on the clamping members by engaging it with retaining members disposed on the clamping members.
