10000360 · 2018-06-19 ·

A resizable cord holder for storing and unwinding cord bundles has two elongated C-channel arms connected adjacent to each other to form a supporting base. The arms are connected to each other by a handle, which is installed into corresponding handle holes in the two arms. The total length of the supporting base can be adjusted by reselecting which holes the handle is installed into. The supporting base can rotate relative to the handle for unwinding an installed cord bundle. Cord bundles are held in place by two retainer mounts at opposite ends of the supporting base. A separation member of the retainer mounts traverses through the arms, connecting a locking member and a retainer member on opposite sides of the arms, with the locking members within the C-channels. Coil springs around the separation members apply retaining tension to the locking members against the inner surface of the C-channels.
