Claims20
A strap system for securing a payload comprising:
- a first fastener comprising a connecting crosspiece, a reversing crosspiece, and a hanger capable of attaching to the payload;
- and
- a strap attached to the connecting crosspiece of the first fastener and capable of passing around the payload, passing between the connecting crosspiece and the reversing crosspiece, and tightening the strap around the payload, wherein the strap further comprises:
- an elastic strap section connected to the connecting crosspiece of the first fastener at one end of the elastic strap section;
- an inelastic strap section connected to the elastic strap section at an opposite end of the elastic strap section as the first fastener;
- and
- a second fastener, which is a hook and loop fastener system, configured along the inelastic strap section to secure the inelastic strap section to the inelastic strap section when the strap is wrapped around the payload, wherein the second fastener comprises:
- loops configured along both sides of the inelastic strap section at a closest region to the elastic strap section, and
- hooks configured along both sides of the inelastic strap section at a farthest region from the elastic strap section.
