Fastening device for assembly and quick release between objects

A fastening device, comprising:

• a hooking element having a securing portion;
• and
• a retaining means being comprised of:
• a plurality of separable parts being retained around said securing portion;
• and
• a releasable pre-stressing means engaged with each separable part of said plurality of separable parts such that each separable part is elastically restored to a respective distance from each other and kept close together about said hooking element,
• wherein the releasable pre-stressing means is comprised of a link wound about said plurality of separable parts so as to keep each separable part of said plurality of separable parts closed on said hooking element,
• wherein said link has at least one end so as to be fastenable to a means for maintaining and releasing tension exerted on said link, and
• wherein said link is comprised of ribbon wound into a spiral so as to form a spring,
• wherein the ribbon has a non-constant thickness, and
• wherein said non-constant thickness decreases from an inside portion of said ribbon of said spiral to an outside portion of said ribbon of said spiral, said non-constant thickness decreasing at an angle.
