Abstract
A ratcheting assembly includes a dial assembly and a strap configured to selectively open and close an opening on equipment. The dial assembly includes a body coupled to the equipment adjacent an opening of the equipment. A dial is coupled to the body and configured to selectively translate along an axis of the body so as to selectively rotate about the axis of the body. A strap is located within the equipment around a portion of the opening. Rotation of the dial applies tension on the strap and selectively shrinks or closes the opening. A spring may be included to release tension on the strap and to aid in translating the dial along the body.
