An assembly for securing a cord in a selected compact configuration. The assembly can include a first attachment apparatus configured to connect to the cord. An elongate body can extend from the first attachment apparatus. The elongate body can be configured to be positioned to extend at least partially around the cord to at least partially secure the cord in the selected compact configuration. A second attachment apparatus can be positioned along at least a portion of the elongate body. The second attachment apparatus can be configured to connect to the first attachment apparatus to at least partially secure the elongate body at least partially about the cord in the selected compact configuration.

A device for holding a cord includes a first cord holding area shaped to receive a cord. The device further includes a hook portion interconnected with the first cord holding area, the hook portion curving from a first end of the first cord holding area, around a side of the first cord holding area to a second end of the first cord holding area, opposite the first end.

The utility model discloses a safety luggage strap with an anti-scratch hook head, which mainly comprises a hook, a tensioning hoop and a telescopic rope, wherein each of rope heads at both ends of the telescopic rope passes through a bent portion of one hook, and the rope heads at the both ends of the telescopic rope are reversed itself and then tightly hooped by the tensioning hoops to prevent the rope heads from being retracted from the inside of the bent portions, thereby enabling the connection between the hooks and the telescopic rope. The head of the hook is a spherical hook head which is a smooth spherical body. The spherical hook head is bent toward an inner side of the hook.

A load binding tool for securing a load, the load binder including an elongated threaded contraction expansion assembly including an elongated threaded member having opposing ends with opposite screw threading, and having opposing engaging ends, and enabling common contraction or extension of the respective opposing engaging ends when the elongated threaded member is rotated one direction or another, and a driven sheave, a drive shaft, a primary drive sheave, and a closed loop of chain or other flexible coupler movably engaged with the driven sheave and the primary drive sheave, wherein the drive shaft can be rotated to turn the primary drive sheave and move the opposing engaging ends closer together or further apart. The drive shaft is can be coupled with an external drive coupling that can be engaged with a separate drive tool to rotate the drive shaft and operate the load binding tool.

A device for securing a bundled grouping such as a strap, hose, cable or wire, including a clip having a tongue element and latch structure and a cord attached at one end of the metal clip, with said clip adapted to be inserted between layers of the bundled grouping. The bundled grouping is secured by pulling on the cord and wrapping the cord around the bundled grouping and securing the cord to the latch structure on the clip and causing the tongue element of the clip to be pulled into the layers of the bundled grouping.

A left knee pad with a locking work piece having a knee pad body for the support of a protective surface having a locking workpiece with a first pair of opposing channels attached to the left side of the body, comprising a first channel and a second channel, and an attachment tab region coupled to the right side of the knee pad body. A tab having an eyelet. An elastomeric tube first portion passing thru the eyelet, the first portion is folded back around the eyelet clamped to a first portion of the cord. The tube is passed around the leg of the wearer, drawn into tension by the wearer. The tension portion of the cord is then compressed and passed into the first channel and then drawn into tension and compressed and passed into the second channel to lock the tube and knee pad to the wearer.

A binding system is provided for attaching a first object to a second object and/or for bundling a plurality of objects. The binding system includes a locking work piece having a first channel and a second channel, the first channel having a channel opening on a first side of the locking work piece, the second channel having a channel opening at an opposite side of the locking work piece. An elastomeric cord has a first end and a second end, and a first cross-sectional dimension when in an unstretched condition, wherein the first channel has a width that is less than the first cross-sectional dimension of the elastomer cord, wherein the elastomer cord may be guided around the second object so that the second end can be connected to the locking work piece by stretching the elastomer cord to reduce the cross-sectional dimension of the elastomer cord to a size smaller than the width of the first channel, inserted into the first channel, and unstretched so that the elastomer cord is retained within the first channel, and wherein the second channel has a width that is less than the first cross-sectional dimension of the elastomer cord, wherein the second end of the elastomer cord that is retained within the first channel can be further stretched to reduce the cross-sectional dimension of the elastomer cord to a size smaller than the width of the second channel, inserted into the second channel, and unstretched so that the elastomer cord is retained within the second channel.
