Interlocking hook assemblies for elastic and rigid straps and cords including a strap member and a pair of similar interlocking hook devices connected to each end of strap member which can be adjusted to desired length. Each interlocking hook device is provided with apertures which are fixedly attached to the distal end of the hook body opposite the hook. Each hook device can be connected, preferably in a locking manner, onto the other hook device creating a closed hook assembly thereby disabling the hooks to prevent entanglement of elastic or rigid straps when not in use or during storage and/or transportation. Multiple straps can be connected end-to-end forming an elongated elastic or rigid strap of desired length having closed central hooks with open hooks on each end. Interlocking hook assemblies for elastic or rigid straps and cords including two similar interlocking hook devices with a connector groove and a dual bar adjustable webbing slider for elastic or rigid straps and cord members. Each interlocking hook device is provided with a connector groove designed to allow each hook to engage the other within their respective grooves and to releasably lock them together.

An insulated hook for use with a rubber blanket having a plurality of apertures about its perimeter, the hook having a body formed with a pair of bends between a shank and a conical tip formed at each of a proximal end and a distal end of the hook body. Each conical tip has a flaring base with a width diameter greater than a width diameter of the hook body. The diameter of the hook body and conical tip are sized and shaped to be removably received by the plurality of apertures of the blanket. The hook body is made of durable material such as nylon 6.6 capable of withstanding high temperatures and is non-electrically conductive. A method of use for the hook with an optional strap is included.

A bracket for hanging an item on a wall is disclosed. The bracket has one or more bracket apertures which are used to mount the bracket to the hanging item. The hanging item could be an item like a picture or a shelf. The bracket has a mounting aperture which is used to mount the hanging item on a nail or a screw. Adjacent to the mounting aperture is a pinhole having a set screw. To use the bracket the user unthreads the set screw from the pinhole opening. The user places the hanging item in its desired location on the wall and pushes the item against the wall so that the set screw marks a spot on the wall where the user should place a nail or a screw for hanging the item.

In one embodiment, a safety attachment for a bolt snap (e.g., a swivel bolt snap) is provided that prevents unintentional opening of a bolt action gate. The safety attachment includes a body with an integral top ring, an integral bottom ring, and a hollow center cavity. The body may have a convex outer surface that extends beyond a release button of the bolt action gate. The integral top ring may contact the release button. The integral bottom ring may prevent movement of the safety attachment along a shaft of the bolt snap. The hollow center cavity may accommodate the shaft of the bolt snap. The body and its integral top ring and bottom ring may be constructed of a durable, flexible, elastic material that can, in response to pressure on the release button, permit motion of the release button and bolt action gate while increasing the force required.

A fastening device for hanging items in a bathroom includes a cup, which is resiliently compressible and can be compressed against a surface to engage a first face of the cup to the surface. A wire is engaged to and extends from a second face of the cup. The wire is resiliently bendable so that opposed sections of the wire can be bent into a pair of hooks. The hooks can be used to support one or more articles in a fixed position relative to the surface.

An anchor assembly for walls comprises a toggle member and a strap member pivotally mounted together, and a locking member. In a first position thereof, the toggle member is aligned with the strap member for insertion through the wall, whereas in a second position thereof, the toggle member extends behind the wall at an angle relative to the strap member which extends from the toggle member through the hole in the wall. The locking member is adapted to be displaced along the strap member until it engages the wall and to be locked on the strap member to prevent the locking member from displacing away from the toggle member. Therefore, the locking member and the toggle member are connected by the strap member and imprison the wall by abutting respectively the visible and hidden sides thereof. A fastener introduced through the locking member and the wall threadably engages an opening defined in the toggle member.

An housing for use with a light fixture is described with a housing body and a mounting hook. The housing body can have an upper surface and a hook mounting hub exposed on the upper surface. The mounting hook can be rotatably coupled to the hook mounting hub and adapted to rotate between a stowed position where the hook lies substantially flush or proximate with the upper surface of the housing body and an upraised position where the hook extends upwardly from the upper surface of the housing body.
