Coupling means (10) between the two ends of a strap (12), between two straps or between a strap and a structure such as a wall includes two correspondingly shaped elements (14,16) and a cover to slide (18) over the elements once they are connected. One element (14) is in the form of a cylinder and the other (16) in the form a semicircle of a size to receive the cylinder; after which the cover (18) is slid over the element to prevent disengaging. The means is adapted to automatically disengage when the cover (18) is slid away from the connection (10), or when the coupling is hinged upward - especially when the straps (12) are under tension. Downward hinging has no effect on the coupling. The coupling means (10) may also be helpful as a connector for ropes, bands, belts, leashes or the like. |
