Embodiments of a strap assembly system for a golf bag are described herein. The strap assembly system can be converted between a single-strap configuration or a double-strap configuration. The strap assembly system comprises a first strap, a second strap, and a back puck. The back puck comprises first and second attachment openings for securing the first strap. The back puck further comprises first and second side openings that define a linear pathway and are configured to receive the second strap. The second strap can move freely along the linear pathway.

The essence of this invention is the use of the floating cam-lock washer that replaces the center bar on a typical buckle. The buckle base consists of a plate with a figure-eight hole in the center. The non-looped end of the rope halter is inserted from the underside of the buckle and pulled through to the point of adjustment on the horse. The non-looped end of the rope halter is then inserted and pulled through the cam-lock washer and inserted back through the buckle base to exit on the underside of the buckle. The non-looped end of the rope halter is then pulled tight to the top of the buckle with the washer at a 90 degree position to the base of the buckle. To lock the buckle in place, the washer is rotated 90 degrees to a parallel position with the buckle base. To unlock the buckle, the washer is rotated 90 degrees back to a vertical positionthis reduces the pressure of the non-looped end of the rope halter with respect to the buckle base and allows the buckle, on the non-looped end of the rope halter rope, to be easily slid through the base and the floating washer to tighten or loosen the rope halter. The fact that the washer is floating rather than attached makes the adjustment process much easier as the non-looped end of the rope halter does not have to bend through a tight arrangement of fixtures.

This buckle and cam-lock washer combination is also significantly easier to manufacture and less expensive than similar mechanical attachments. The base is a simple plate with a hole cut in it and the washer is a common commercial size and shape. It is the unique relationship between the base and the washer that creates the cam-locking solution to holding the buckle in place and serve as an attachment for the rope halter.

The present invention discloses an adorning element which comprises a base body having a front side and a rear side. At least one gem (4) is disposed in the base plate (1). In addition, a through hole (2) which receives the gem (4) is disposed in the base body for each gem (4). At least one retaining element (21) which projects into the through opening or through hole (2) and which supports the gem (4) is disposed at an end of the through hole (2) facing the front side of the base body. A holding device which holds the gem (4) in a defined position in the through hole (2) is arranged at the through opening or through hole (2) on the rear side. In addition, a method for manufacturing the adorning element according to the invention is disclosed.

A cam buckle assembly, for use with a length of webbing in a tiedown assembly and configured for longitudinal passage therethrough of the webbing, includes a frame having a base; a cam pivotably coupled to the frame between a web-gripping portion and an actuation portion for movement between a secured position in which the web-gripping portion is positioned to grip the webbing against the base of the frame, and a release position in which the web-gripping portion is positioned to release the webbing from the base of the frame; a longitudinal cam groove in the gripping portion of the cam; and a plurality of gripping structures on the web-gripping portion of the cam, extending laterally on opposite sides of the cam groove. The base of the frame may advantageously have a longitudinal frame groove laterally aligned with the cam groove.

A tension buckle is provided and includes a slider body and a toggle body. The slider body includes a head with a slider strap receiving passageway extending there through from lateral sides thereof and positioned along a proximal end thereof, and a distal end having a neck positioned opposite the proximal end and tie section extending from the neck. The toggle body includes a top bar, a bottom bar positioned substantially parallel to the top bar, a first joining element connecting a first end of the top bar and a first end of the bottom bar, and a second joining element connecting a second end of the top bar and a second end of the bottom bar to provide a toggle strap receiving passageway extending though the toggle body from lateral sides thereof and positioned offset from the slider strap receiving passageway.

A clasp is configured to permanently interlock around a flexible strip of material and includes first and second interlocking members. At least one interlocking member includes a Bluetooth communication device. Each interlocking member can include a plurality of hooks and a corresponding plurality of recesses, where the recesses of one interlocking member receive the hooks of the other interlocking member to secure a band within the clasp between the interlocking members. The recesses can be completely internal to the clasp to prevent external tampering. Each of the interlocking members can include various protrusions and ribs that compress and secure the band within the clasp, so as to prevent movement of the band between the interlocking members when interlocked.
