Abstract
A securement system of the type for mounting an object, such as a hammock, snow skis or the like to a support member or to one another including an elongated flexible body member having inner and outer sections. The inner section including a portion made from a polymeric fabric material and a frictional gripping member made from a rubber material having angularly disposed corrugations adapted for frictional gripping engagement with the support member, and the outer section including Velcro mating portions to provide a coupling for holding the body member in a closed condition.

A securement device of the type adapted for mounting an object, such as a hammock, snow skis or the like to a support member or to one another, said securement device including a generally flexible, elongated body member having a predetermined length, said body member having inner and outer sections that are joined together by stitching, said inner section being made from a relatively elastic fabric polymeric material and further including a frictional gripping member, said friction gripping member being made from a rubber material having corrugations adapted for frictional gripping engagement with a support member, said outer section further including a female Velcro portion and a male Velcro portion to provide a frictional coupling upon contact with one another for holding said securement device in a closed configurations, one end of the body member having a retaining ring element adapted for receiving the opposite end of said body member such that the free end of the body member can be inserted through a looped around said ring element and secured in place by frictionally pressing the male and female portions of said Velcro system into engagement with one another.
A securement system of type adapted for mounting an object, such as a hammock, snow skis or the like to a support member or to one another, said securement device including a flexible, elongated body member having a predetermined length, said body member having an inner section and an outer section, said inner section being made from a nylon fabric material and having a stitched thereto a frictional gripping member made of a rubber material and, said fabric material being relatively inelastic compared to said rubber material, said frictional gripping member having corrugations which extend parallel to one another and at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal central axis of said body member, said outer section including female Velcro portion and a male Velcro portion adapted for coupling engagement with one another upon a contact thereof, a one end of said body member mounting a retainer ring element adapted for receiving the opposite end of said body member such that the free end of said body member can be inserted through and looped around said ring element and secured in place by frictionally pressing the male and female portions of said Velcro portions into engagement with one another.
