Abstract
A releasable adjustable binding apparatus includes an elongated substantially flexible strap having a top surface, a bottom surface, and two free ends with a first saw-tooth portion along the top surface proximal one free end; and, a loop fixedly attached proximal a second free end traversing the top surface with a gap between the loop and the top surface. A substantially flexible nose piece is attached to the loop with a second saw-tooth portion engageable with the first saw tooth portion and on a side adjacent the top surface, and at least one moveable loop slidingly connected to the elongated strap between the stationary loop and the first saw tooth portion.
Claims7
A releasable adjustable binding apparatus comprising:
- a) an elongated substantially flexible strap having a top surface, a bottom surface, a first free end and a second free end;
- b) a first saw-tooth portion along a predetermined length of said top surface of one of said first free end and said second free end;
- c) a loop fixedly attached proximal an opposed one of said first and said second free end traversing said top surface with a gap between said loop and said top surface;
- and
- d) a substantially flexible nose piece attached to said loop with a second saw-tooth portion engageable with said first saw tooth portion and on a side adjacent said top surface.
A releasable adjustable binding apparatus for hole-punched papers comprising:
- a) an elongated substantially flexible strap having a first top surface, a first bottom surface, a first free prong end and a second free prong end;
- b) a first saw-tooth portion along a predetermined length of said first top surface of said first free prong end and said second free prong end;
- c) an elongated planar bar member having a second top surface and a second bottom surface and a third end and a fourth end with apertures adjacent said third and fourth ends;
- d) loops fixedly attached proximal said third and fourth free ends and traversing said second top surface with a gap between said loop and said second top surface;
- and
- e) a substantially flexible nose piece attached to said loops with a second saw-tooth portion on a side of said nose piece adjacent said second top surface.
A releasable adjustable binding apparatus for hole-punched papers comprising:
- a) an elongated planar bar member having a first top surface and a first bottom surface and a first end and a second end with apertures disposed through said bar member adjacent said first and second ends, said first top surface having a first saw-tooth portion disposed along substantially all of said first top surface;
- b) an elongated substantially flexible strap, said strap having a pair of end portions, each of said end portions including a second saw-tooth portion for engaging said first saw tooth portion of said bar member and each of said pair of end portions disposed through a respective one of said apertures;
- and
- c) at least two moveable loops slidingly attached to said elongated bar member and traversing said first top surface with a gap between said moveable loops and said first top surface, said movable loops slidingly engaging a top surface of each respective one of said end portions for maintaining engagement of said first and second saw-tooth portions.
