Locking device

A locking device, comprising a band provided with a locking element on its one end;

• a housing;
• a rocker turnably movable relative to said housing and having an edge which in a closed position of the device applies pressure to the band to stop the band from movement to tighten the band, said locking element provided on said end of the band being engageable with said housing;
• first means for turning said rocker and releasing the pressure on the band so that the band is no longer tensioned and can be moved but said locking element can not disengage from said housing;
• and second separate means which, upon release of the pressure on the band when the band is no longer tensioned and in response to an action applied to said second means by a user, release said locking element from said housing in a next step so as to disengage said element from said housing and to open the locking device with the band being not tensioned, so that the band does not jump upon its release, said first and second means being formed so that when said first means is actuated by a user said second means does not operate, and when said second means is actuated by a user said first means does not operate.
