Embodiments of the invention are directed to adjustable closure devices. One embodiment has a strap, a connector attached to a strap end, a chafe mounted on the strap behind the connector, and a hinged handle on the chafe. The chafe has two outer bars and a central bar, these bars defining strap through-paths. The strap end-region has path segments arranged, directionally from the strap's central region toward the strap end at the chafe, or, in embodiments that configure the strap as a pulley, at the connector. An adjustable length region of the strap spans between the chafe and the connector. An elevatable handle configuration allows a user to pull the chafe to which it is connected along the strap, away from connector.

A belt buckle for holding a golf ball mark repair tool. Such a belt buckle may include a frame having a recess within the frame, a pocket material held in place within the recess, the pocket material defining a pocket having an opening, a retention piece held in place within said recess, such that there is a gap separating the retention piece and the opening, and optionally a base material.

An adjustment device includes a housing supporting a rotatable spool that is operably coupled to a tension line. The spool is configured to rotate about a first axis in a first direction to wind the tension line around the spool and is configured to rotate about the first axis in a second direction opposite the first rotational direction to unwind the at least one tension line from the spool. The device includes a lever pivotally coupled to the housing and configured to rotate about a second axis. The lever is selectively coupled to the spool to drive rotation of the spool in the first direction. The device also includes a release mechanism that is configured to selectively release the spool such that the spool is free to rotate in either the first or second direction in response to manual forces applied to the release mechanism.

A clip for securing a cushion to an outdoor furniture item is disclosed. The clip includes a middle portion, a first end portion extending transverse to the middle portion and a second portion that extends transverse from the middle portion. The middle portion is longer than each of the first end portion and the second end portion. The end portions are configured to fit through and overlap portions of a loop in the cushion to hold the cushion to a rail of the furniture item.

A belt with at least one rechargeable battery including a buckle housing that contains the a rechargeable battery and a reel adjustment mechanism to adjust length of one or more belt member including a reel that accepts a cord associated with the proximal end of the belt member(s) and a dial connected to the reel that is turned to adjust length of the belt member(s) extending from the buckle housing. The rechargeable battery is connected to or connectable to a charging cable for connecting to an electrical device to be charged or for connection to a power supply to charge the rechargeable battery.

The invention provides an anti-slip and quick-detach fastener structure for using with an annular strap which comprises a fixed end, a first inner edge, a free end, and a second inner edge. The anti-slip and quick-detach fastener structure comprises a fixing ring and a dynamic friction member. The fixing ring comprises a first fixing section, a second fixing section opposite to the first fixing section, and an inserting space. The dynamic friction member comprises a first friction section surrounded by the free end to constrain the second inner edge, and an operating section connected with the first friction section. The first friction section and the second fixing section form a dynamic friction state to jointly clamp the free end, and the first friction section loses the dynamic friction state with the second fixing section and releases the free end when the first friction section is forced to rotate.
