Abstract
A device for restraining a coupling from disengaging is provided. The coupling includes a plug member and a socket member. The plug member couples with the socket member. The device includes an elastic member. The elastic member has a slot in a first portion. The elastic member detachably connects to the socket member at a first end and operably engages to the plug member at a second end through the slot.
Claims14
A stretchable coupling device for providing a coupling of a vehicle to trailer electrical cable connection during relative movement between the vehicle and trailer, the coupling comprising a plug member and a socket member, the plug member adapted to couple with the socket member, the device comprising:
- at least one elastic member comprising a slot, the at least one elastic member detachably connected to the socket member at a first end and operably engaged to the plug member at a second end through the slot.
A stretchable coupling device for providing a coupling of a vehicle to trailer electrical cable connection during relative movement between the vehicle and trailer, the coupling comprising a plug member and a socket member, the plug member adapted to couple with the socket member, the device comprising:
- at least one elastic member comprising a slot, the at least one elastic member detachably connected to the socket member at a first end and operably engaged to the plug member at a second end through the slot;
- a handle comprising a pair of tabs extending perpendicular to the second end of the at least one elastic member, the pair of tabs adapted to maneuver the at least one elastic member during assembling;
- and
- a connecting member adapted to connect the at least one elastic member with the socket member.
A stretchable coupling device for providing a coupling of a vehicle to trailer electrical cable connection during relative movement between the vehicle and trailer, the coupling comprising a plug member and a socket member, the plug member adapted to couple with the socket member, the device comprising:
- at least one elastic member comprising a slot, the at least one elastic member detachably connected to the socket member at a first end and operably engaged to the plug member at a second end through the slot,
- wherein the at least one elastic member is operably engaged with the coupling to restrain the coupling from disengaging.
