Abstract
An apparatus for maintaining paired articles together including a male member having a skewer with a pointed end, a female member having a axial hole for receiving the skewer therein, and an elastic tether configured to maintain the skewer in the axial hole, wherein the elastic tether is attached to the male and female members, and wherein the elastic tether has a length such that the elastic tether is under tension when the skewer is engaged in the axial hole.
Claims17
An apparatus for maintaining paired articles together, comprising:
- a male member having a skewer with a pointed end;
- a female member having a axial hole for receiving the skewer therein;
- and
- an elastic member configured to maintain the skewer in the axial hole, wherein the elastic member is attached to the male and female members, and wherein the elastic member has a length such that the elastic member is under tension when the skewer is engaged in the axial hole.
An apparatus for maintaining paired articles together during laundering, comprising:
- a first cylindrical body having a skewer with a pointed end extending axially from one end of the first cylindrical body;
- a second cylindrical body having an axial hole for receiving the skewer therein;
- and
- an elastic tether configured to maintain the skewer in the axial hole, wherein the elastic tether is attached to the first and second cylindrical bodies and is under tension when the skewer is engaged in the axial hole.
