Tensioning tie down apparatus

摘要

A tensioning tie down apparatus enables a securing member to intertwine through multiple apertures and gaps in a tensioning member to generate tension through the securing member, which helps securely tie down objects and restrict slippage of the securing member. A securing member has a first securing member end and a second securing member end. The securing member is configured to have sufficient tensile strength and resiliency to stretch and bend, which helps create tension on the securing member. The tension helps tie down an object into a secure position, while also inhibiting slippage. The tensioning member has a hook shaped mounting member that forms a mounting gap. An extension member extends from the mounting member. A base extends perpendicularly form the extension member. The base is defined by a plurality of apertures. A base shaft extends from the base to form a base gap. One intertwining configuration has the securing member looping around mounting gap, the base gap, the apertures, and the object.

主权项

1. A tensioning tie down apparatus for tying down an object through tension, the apparatus comprising:
a securing member, the securing member having a first securing member end and a second securing member end; at least one tensioning member including:
a base;a plurality of apertures in the base, the plurality of apertures configured to enable passage of the securing member;a generally elongated extension member extending from the base;a curved mounting member extending from the extension member;a mounting gap between the mounting member and the extension member, the mounting gap configured to enable passage of the securing member;a base shaft extending from the base in spaced-apart relationship to the extension member; anda base gap between the base shaft and the extension member, the base gap configured to enable passage of the securing member; andwherein passage of the securing member through at least one of the plurality of apertures, the mounting gap, and the base gap at least partially generates tension on the securing members;wherein the apparatus further comprises a securing member lock having a plurality of securing member openings, and wherein a first securing member extends through a first one of the plurality of securing member openings, and further comprising a second securing member extending through at least a second one of the plurality of securing member openings.
