OPEN LOOP CONNECTOR

An open loop connector 10 (to enlarged scale) having a leading end 11 and a trailing end 12 joined by a loop body part 13. A hook point portion 18 includes a sharp point 19 with an inward curve 20 so that with a downward stroke the point 19, which is projecting out from the loop, catches sheet material and its curve gives it reentrant function through the sheet. The trailing end 12 has an enlargement 21 which has a narrow slot 22. The hook point portion 18 faces the slot 22. The hook point portion 18 has an enlargement attachment as narrow outwardly facing relieved sections 23 and 24 matched to the slot 22 so that this narrow section may pass closely through the slot 22. The enlargement has an undercut 25 providing a shoulder 26 so that the hook portion may manually be extended to align the narrow relieved sections with the slot, the narrow section 23, 24 may then be pushed through the slot 22 and released back into the slot 22, the shoulder region 26 locks under shoulder 25 thereby closing the loop. The reverse process unlocks and opens the loop. By reason of the configuration of the hook, the curve of the loop and the slot 22, the back of the recesses 23 and 24 at 27 is inclined to the curved line of the loop. This aids entry into slot 22.

Tying and stabilization system of plastic film covering for linear cultivations
11739811 · 2023-08-29 · ·

One exemplary aspect relates to a system for tying and stabilizing a plastic cover film for agricultural crops such as soft fruit covers. Cultivation in covered areas has been particularly developed in recent decades. The state of the art includes glass panes, greenhouses, and special plastic coverings for soft fruit. With the prior art, the placement, fastening and fixing of the plastic film is achieved with ropes or with elastic cords or with soft PVC tubing. However, the cost of binding the plastic film is significant as skilled staff and considerable amounts of man hours are required to tie the plastic film to the supporting structure. Tying the film, in most cases, is carried out by employing knots on simple eyelets or grommets, that the plastic films bear and, respectively, with knots on the wire ropes of the structure.
