Connector apparatus

A connector comprising

• a) a body having generally flexible, C-shaped cross section means defining recess means in planes crosswise of and normal to a major dimension of said body,
• b) said body having a base and a succession of side walls together defining said C-shaped recess means, each side wall having a mid-section and an outer side wall portion, said mid-section being sufficiently narrow to allow said outer side wall portion to flex,
• c) said side walls having inverted C-shaped termini relative to said C-shaped recess means,
• d) and ridge means configured to flexibly fit in and be gripped by the side walls of certain of said recess means,
• e) and wherein said ridge means is fitted in said certain C-shaped recess means to form said connector,
• f) means to confirm complete adjusted interlock of said ridge means in said certain C-shaped recess means,
• g) said C-shaped recess means including multiple C-shaped recesses and said ridge means including multiple ridges, and wherein certain C-shaped recesses are configured to each nest a single ridge, and wherein other C-shaped recesses are configured to nest a plurality of ridges.

A connector comprising

• a) a body having generally flexible, C-shaped cross section means defining recess means,
• b) said body having a base and a succession of side walls together defining said C-shaped recess means, each side wall having a mid-section and an outer side wall portion, said side walls having termini, said mid-section being sufficiently narrow to allow said side wall termini to flex,
• c) and a ridge means configured to flexibly fit and be griped by the side walls of certain of said recess means,
• d) and wherein said ridge means is adapted to be fitted into or removed from certain C-shaped recess means so as to allow a plurality of side wall means to flex and to provide an adjustable connector,
• e) and including means associated with said base and side walls to confirm complete adjusted interlock of said ridge means in said certain C-shaped recess means,
• f) and wherein adjacent C-shaped recesses have common side wall mid-sections and upwardly rounded termini configured to flexibly guide unaligned ridge means into said recess means.

A connector comprising

• a) an elongated crosswise flexible, C-shaped cross section means defining recess means, and having side walls,
• b) and wherein said C-shaped cross section means is configured to nest tongue means,
• c) and including said tongue means defining the end portion of a strap, and wherein said C-shaped cross section means is housed in a generally rectangular buckle means,
• d) said buckle means including first opening means wherein said tongue means is flexibly fitted into said recess means,
• e) said buckle means including second opening means wherein said tongue means may extend through said buckle means to allow multiple, adjustable, releasable, interlock positions of said tongue means and recess means,
• f) and wherein means is provided to connect to a strap integral with said buckle means,
• g) and said connection including adjustable releasable tongue lock means, for locking the tongue means in said interlock position.
• h) said buckle means including third and fourth opening means configured to allow manual flexing of said C-shaped recess means so as to disengage said tongue lock means.

A connector comprising

• a) a buckle means having recess means, said recess means having tongue lock means,
• b) said buckle means having a base, a top and side wall means, each side wall means having a mid-section, said mid-section configured to allow manual release or adjustment of said tongue lock means,
• c) a tongue means defining the end portion of a strap,
• d) said buckle means including first opening means wherein said tongue means is flexibly fitted into said recess means,
• e) said buckle means including second opening means wherein said tongue means may extend through said recess means and through said second opening means to allow greater two-way, multiple, adjustable interlock,
• f) said buckle means including means to connect to a strap,
• g) and wherein said tongue means is fitted into said buckle means to complete adjustable connection.
