Abstract

An apparatus is provided for a paper hook. The apparatus has a set of coiled loops which extend into an elongated loop that is planar to a member of the set of coiled loops. The apparatus may hold a thin material such as paper between two adjacent sides of the set of coiled loops. The apparatus may also hold the thin material between the member of the set of coiled loop and the elongated loop.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An apparatus for holding a first object, comprising:
 a string-shaped material having a set of coiled loops abutting each other for holding the first object between a pair of the set of coiled loops;   the string-shaped material extending a first linear piece from one end of the set of coiled-loops wherein the first linear piece curves into a hook shape; and   a second linear piece extending from the first linear piece such that the second linear piece extends over the string-shaped material wherein the second linear piece abuts the string-shaped material for holding a second object.   
   
   
       2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the string-shaped material is selected from a group including metal and plastic. 
   
   
       3 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the first object and the second object are selected from a group including a thin material. 
   
   
       4 . The apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein the thin material is paper. 
   
   
       5 . The apparatus of  claim 4 , wherein the first linear piece and the second linear piece form an elongated loop. 
   
   
       6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising the string-shaped material extending a third linear piece from an opposite end of the set of coiled-loops wherein the third linear piece extends radially perpendicular to the set of coiled loops. 
   
   
       7 . An apparatus for holding items, comprising:
 a strand of material with a circuitous shape such that a substantial first portion of a first side of the strand of material touches a substantial second portion of an opposite side of the strand of material;   a first linear piece located at a first end of the strand of material wherein the first linear piece extends linearly from the strand of material and curves to form a substantial hook shape; and   a second linear piece extending from the first linear piece to the strand of material.   
   
   
       8 . The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein the substantial first portion and the substantial second portion are shaped to hold a first item. 
   
   
       9 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the first item is selected from a group including a thin material. 
   
   
       10 . The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the second linear piece touches the strand of material. 
   
   
       11 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the second linear piece and the strand of material hold a second item. 
   
   
       12 . The apparatus of  claim 11 , wherein the second item is selected from a group including the thin material. 
   
   
       13 . The apparatus of  claim 12 , wherein the strand of material forms a coil. 
   
   
       14 . The apparatus of  claim 13 , wherein the strand of material is selected from a group including metal and plastic. 
   
   
       15 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the thin material is paper. 
   
   
       16 . The apparatus of  claim 15 , wherein the first linear piece and the second linear piece form an elongated loop. 
   
   
       17 . The apparatus of  claim 7 , further comprising a second end of the strand of material extending linearly from the strand of material wherein the second end extends radially perpendicular to the strand of material.
