SECUREMENT SYSTEM FOR SECURING CARGO IN AND TO A CARGO AREA OF A MOTOR VEHICLE
A cargo securement system for securing cargo items in and to a cargo area of a motor vehicle may include at least one elongated support rail configured to be mounted to and to extend along at least a portion of a length of an inner wall of the at least one of a side, front or rear of the cargo area of the motor vehicle, and at least one cargo restraint module configured to be releasably secured to the at least one elongated support rail, at least a first portion of the at least once cargo restraint module configured to releasably engage at least one cargo item to restrain the at least one cargo item to and within the cargo area of the motor vehicle.
Retractable leash
Retractable relates to retractable leashes for walking and training dogs or other animals and comprises a housing containing a spring-loaded spool having a leash wound on it and a device for controlling the length of the leash, comprising at least one means for locking the movement of the spool, wherein the device for controlling the length of the leash comprises a device for determining the movement of the spool, an electronic device linked thereto for controlling the means for locking the movement of the spool, a device for activating and deactivating the electronic device for controlling the means for locking the movement of the spool, at least one actuator of the means for locking the movement of the spool comprising a fixing device, the actuator being connected to the device for controlling the means for locking the movement of the spool, and at least one power supply.
ATTACHMENT FOR A RETRACTABLE LANYARD
Provided herein is a lanyard attachment for storing a lanyard. The lanyard attachment has a housing, means for releasably storing a lanyard in the housing, for example a rotatable spool, a guide at the proximal end of the housing to guide the lanyard into the housing and a holder at the distal end from which an object is suspended. Also provided is a retractable lanyard in which a cord or lanyard is stored in a coiled configuration within the housing and a system for releasably storing a lanyard in the lanyard attachment.
Cord management apparatus
A cord management apparatus includes a housing, a reel rotatably disposed within the housing, and a button operably coupled to the reel and configured to control extension and retraction of a window blind cord attached to the reel, according to various embodiments. The housing may include a back portion and a front portion. The front portion may be at least one of detachably and pivotally coupled to the back portion such that the housing is openable to allow a user to have access to an internal chamber defined by the housing.
Quick Physical Restraint System
The quick physical restraint system has a binding, a dispenser, and a shield. The binding is deployed to wrap around a suspect to reduce the need to physically engage before placing the suspect into custody. The dispenser allows the binding to uncoil and be stored. The shield covers the binding to ensure it does not attach to the user. The binding has hooks, a latch and a binding handle. The hook is a metal spike along the binding length that is used to penetrate the suspects' clothing. The binding handle ensures the binding can be held without the dispenser. The dispenser has a binding spool, a binding cutter, a handle, a shield rail, a spool trigger, and a spool stopper. The binding spool is a cylindrical section that rolls out the binding. This design allows the binding to be deployed through the dispenser or used as a standalone device.
Retractable leash with automatic locking and unlocking function
A retractable leash with automatic locking and unlocking function including a housing, a spool with a cord wound therearound, a braking means, a cord opening, a stopping means and a biasing means. A second portion of the stopping means abuts against the cord in such a way that tensioning of the cord by an external force actuates the stopping means to overcome biasing force of the biasing means to rotate to the locking position, and untensioning of the cord by the external force returns the stopping means from the locking position to the unlocking position. The present invention automatically locks the leash when the dog rushes, thus improving safety of the leash.
String winding and unwinding apparatus
An apparatus for convenient tightening and loosening of strings such as those found in shoelaces of footwear is provided. The apparatus includes a rotating portion within a base portion. A cover portion, when operated in a first position, provides a ratchet movement that allows rotation in a tightening direction while preventing movement in a loosening direction. When the cover is moved to a second position, the ratchet mechanism disengages, and the strings can then be easily loosened.
LOCKING CARGO RESTRAINT WITH MULTIPLE RETRACTING CABLES
A locking cargo restraint with multiple retracting cables is provided for securing cargo to a base, surface, or object. The locking cargo restraint is generally composed of a housing, retractable cables, and spools. The cables may be spooled within the housing to take up slack for storage of the device or to provide tension when cargo is being secured. The spools are spring biased to assist the user in pulling the cables into the housing. The cables are independently operable, allowing the operator to secure symmetrical or irregularly shaped objects. The locking cargo restraint also features a mode selection knob that can effectuate different modes of operation of the device such that the cables may be extended from the housing, retracted into the housing, or tightened about cargo. Further, the device includes a lock mechanism that, when engaged, limits the operation of the mode selection knob.
RETRACTABLE STRAP
A strap may be removably attachable to a container. The strap may include a retractor having an opening, a retraction spring and a brake. The strap may further include a strip of flexible material attached to the retraction spring and extending through the opening of the retractor. The strap may also include clips attaching the retractor and distal end of the flexible material to the container. The strip of flexible material may move from a fully retracted position, where the distal end of the strip of flexible material is nearest the retractor, relative to the entire length of the strip of flexible material, to an extended position where the distal end of the strip of flexible material is furthest from the retractor. The retraction spring may bias the strip of flexible material into/toward the fully retracted position.
Retractable pet leash
A retractable pet leash comprises a shell with opposite ends, a rolling disc contained in the shell, a rope wound in the rolling disc, a locking button and a locking member; the shell is provided with a mounting hole; the locking button includes a mounting seat, a pulling member and a resetting member; the mounting seat is pivoted inside the shell; the mounting seat has a main body and a sliding slot passing through the main body; the pulling member is arranged on the mounting seat, a bottom of the pulling member passes through the sliding slot to connect the resetting member; the locking member is pivoted inside the shell and has a pivoting seat, a pivoting part, a locking part and the pressing part; the locking part cooperates with adjacent teeth of the rolling disc, the pressing part cooperates with the resetting part.
