A strap end manager holds a loose cargo strap end against a tight portion of the strap. The manage fits over an end of a loose strap, and the loose strap is wound around the manager. Top and bottom, right and left wings, fold around the strap and around the tight portion, and secure the wound loose end. The wings may include hook and loop material to retain the wings around the wound loose end. The strap end manager may further be used to facilitate storing cargo straps in the same manner as for holding loose cargo strap ends.

TIE-DOWN APPARATUS FOR SECURING CARGO ON A CARRIER VEHICLE
20210178957 · 2021-06-17 ·

An apparatus for securing cargo to a flatbed of a carrier vehicle. The apparatus includes two pulley blocks, the first pulley block and the second pulley block. The first pulley block having a proximal end and a distal end, the distal end having two pulleys arranged side-by-side. The second pulley block having a proximal end and a distal end, the distal end of the second pulley having two pulleys arranged side-by-side. A first strap having a first end coupled to a first hook and the second end is coupled to a proximal end of the first pulley block. A second strap having a second hook at one end and the other end can be inserted into the second block pulley through its proximal end. The free end loops around the pulleys of the two pulley blocks and exits from the first pulley block. The free end of the second strap is having a handle.

Cargo Strap Rolling Assembly
20210197705 · 2021-07-01 ·

A cargo strap rolling assembly for wrapping a cargo strap into a roll for storage includes a grip that includes a handle, a guide and a shaft. A first disk is slidable onto the shaft and a peg is coupled to the first disk. An end of the cargo strap can be wrapped around the peg when the cargo strap is passed through the guide. A second disk engages the peg such that the first disk is rotatably coupled to the second disk. A barrel is slidable onto the shaft and the barrel releasably engages the second disk such that the barrel is rotatably coupled to the second disk. A crank is removably attachable to the barrel for rotating the barrel around the shaft. In this way the cargo strap is wrapped around the barrel to form a roll for storage.

High speed winch rewind adapter
11001472 · 2021-05-11 ·

This disclosure describes a high speed winch rewind adapter for quickly rewinding a loading strap. In one implementation, the adapter includes a body having a volume sized to at least partially surround an annular end of the winch. The annular end is coupled with a ratchet mechanism of the winch and having at least one hole for receiving a winch bar. A drive connector is positioned both within the volume of the body and external to the volume of the body, the drive connector external to the volume of the body having an external profile to receive a torque, and the drive connector within the volume of the body insertable into the annular end of the winch for alignment to the axis of rotation. A coupling mechanism synchronizes the drive connector to the annular end such that both the drive connector and the annular end rotate simultaneously.

Heavy duty ratchet
10988071 · 2021-04-27 ·

The frame of a heavy duty ratchet supports a spool about an axis of rotation. A handle, pivotable about the axis of rotation, includes protrusions engageable with toothed wheels on opposed sides of the spool to urge incremental rotation of the spool upon repetitive pivotal movement of the handle. A pair of spring-loaded pawls engage the toothed wheels to limit the direction of rotation of the toothed wheels. A cam, formed as part of the handle, disengages the pair of pawls from the toothed wheels upon pivotal movement of the handle to a certain extent to permit rotation of the spool in either direction.
