A suction device includes a suction cup and a flexible hanging member attached to the suction cup. The suction cup has a pivot unit projecting integrally therefrom and a periphery located in a plane which is spaced from the pivot unit at a predetermined distance. The hanging member includes a socket unit which receives rotatably the pivot unit therein and which exposes the suction cup to an exterior of the socket unit, and a plurality of pressing claws connected securely to the socket unit. Each of the pressing claws has a planar abutting surface which is substantially parallel to the plane and which is spaced apart from the pivot unit at a distance that is larger than the predetermined distance. The socket unit is generally U-shaped and is provided with a pair of tongues which permit entry of the pivot unit into the socket unit and which prevents removal of the pivot unit therefrom.

A suction device comprising: a suction cup having a suction face, a non-suction face opposite to said suction face, a pivot unit projecting integrally from a center of said non-suction face, and a periphery located in a plane which is spaced from said pivot unit at a predetermined distance; a flexible hanging member including a socket unit which receives rotatably said pivot unit of said suction cup therein, and at least one pressing claw connected securely to said socket unit, said suction cup being exposed to an exterior of said socket unit, of least one said pressing claw having an abutting surface which is substantially parallel to said plane and which is spaced apart from said pivot unit at a distance that is larger than said predetermined distance, and a mounting surface opposite to said abutting surface, said pressing claw further having a hook attached to said at least one mounting surface for hanging an object thereon, said suction cup being capable of being pressed against a smooth surface so as to stick the suction device on the smooth surface in such a manner that said pressing claw of said at least one hanging member flex and that said abutting surface surfaces of said pressing claw is pressed against the smooth surface, thereby permitting a sheet of paper to be clamped between the abutting surface of said at least one of the pressing claw and the smooth surface; and wherein said pivot unit includes a cylindrical pivot portion projecting from said non-suction face and provided with an enlarged end, said socket unit being U-shaped and being provided with two parallel arm portions and a curved intermediate portion interconnecting said arm portions, said socket unit further having a C-shaped flange projecting inwardly from said curved intermediate portion, and a pair of tongues projecting respectively from said arm portions toward said C-shaped flange in such a manner that said tongues cooperatively define a gap therebetween which is slightly smaller than diameter of said pivot portion and which confines said pivot portion in a space that is defined between said C-shaped flange and said tongues so that said pivot unit is prevented from removal from said socket unit, whereby, during assembly of said suction cup and said hanging member, said pivot portion can be forced to push said tongues away from each other in order to move into said space.
