Abstract

An apparel fixation device includes a first, second, and third rigid member. The first rigid member is coupled to a first end of the second rigid member by a first flex member such that the second rigid member is substantially parallel to the first rigid member and a first opening is defined between the first rigid member and the second rigid member proximate to a second end of the second rigid member. The third rigid member is coupled to the second end of the second rigid member by a second flex member such that the third rigid member is substantially parallel to the second rigid member and a second opening is defined between the second rigid member and the third rigid member proximate to the first end of the second rigid member.

Dependent claims

An apparel fixation device comprising:

a first rigid member;
a second rigid member having a first end and a second end, the first rigid member coupled to the first end by a first flex member such that:
the second rigid member is substantially parallel to the first rigid member defining a first channel between the first rigid member and the second rigid member;
and a first opening is defined between the first rigid member and the second rigid member proximate to the second end;
a third rigid member coupled to the second end by a second flex member such that the third rigid member is substantially parallel to the second rigid member defining a second channel between the second rigid member and the third rigid member;
and a second opening is defined between the second rigid member and the third rigid member proximate to the first end;
a first wedge within the first channel having a first narrow portion proximate to the first opening and a first wide portion distal to the first opening;
and
a second wedge within the second channel having a first narrow portion proximate to the first opening and a first wide portion distal to the first opening.
