Abstract

A holder 1 for use in the securing of fixings into a work surface comprises a body which includes fixing locating areas 2 along its periphery. The fixing used may be a nail, pin, tack, rivet, bolt, hasp, or hook. The holder may have curves or comers along its perimeter which allow for awkward fixing positioning. Preferably the device may be able to hold more than one fixing, and may have a number of different sized and shaped locating areas to allow for different fixings.

FIXINGS HOLDER THIS INVENTION RELATES TO A TOOL USED TO RETAIN FIXINGS IN PLACE, THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE TOO INCONVENIENT TO BE HELD SUCCESSFULLY BETWEEN FINGERS OR IN THE HAND WHEN SECURING FIXINGS INTO A SURFACE, FINGERS OR HANDS MAY BE UNABLE TO HOLD FIXINGS SUCCESSFULLY. THIS MAY RESULT IN THE FIXINGS BEING DROPPED OR BADLY LOCATED IN THEIR DESIGNATED SURFACE. ADDITIONAL INJURY MAY ALSO OCCUR TO HANDS OR FINGERS FROM THE TOOLS THAT SECURE THE FTXING.
TRADITIONALLY THIS PROBLEM IS OVERCOME BY PUSHING A FIXING PARTIALLY THROUGH A PIECE OF CARD. A TOOL IS APPLIED TO THE HEAD OF THE FIXING THUS LOCATING IT FIRMLY INTO POSITION AND THE CARD IS RIPPED AWAY BEFORE THE FIXING IS SECURED HOME AN EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION WILL NOW BE DESCRIBED BY WAY OF EXAMPLE ONLY, WITH REFERENCE TO THE ACCOMPANYING DRAWINGS IN WHICH- FIGURE I--A FUCING IS INSERTED INTO A LOCATING AREA (2) IN THE HOLDER (1), WHERE IT IS HELD FIRMLY FIGURE 2 :- THE HOLDER (1) IS PLACED SUITABLY NEAR A SURFACE AND A TOOL IS APPLIED TO THE HEAD OF THE FIXING, THUS LOCATING IT INTO THE SURFACE FIGURE 3 :- THE HOLDER (1) IS PULLED AWAY FROM THE FIXING, AND THE FADING IS SECURED HOME.
