Self-aligning ratcheting clasp

A clasp comprising:

• a securing rail, the securing rail comprising an elongate rail comprising a rail top, a pair of opposing clasping flanges extending lengthwise of the rail, a first plurality of locking teeth spaced and extending lengthwise of the rail and an alignment trough in the top extending lengthwise of the rail;
• and
• a clasp body comprising, a pair of opposing jaws operatively associated with the clasp body, each of the opposing jaws being configured to receive one of the clasping flanges of the elongate rail, the opposing jaws being further configured to bias toward each other with the clasping flanges received therein to nest the clasping flanges between the opposing jaws and to secure the clasp body to the rail against radial movement relative to the rail and an alignment blade extending from the clasp body, the alignment blade being configured to be received in the alignment trough with the opposing jaws receiving the clasping flanges, at least one engaging tooth on a distal end of a resilient flap extending from clasp body biased by the resilient flap into engagement with the first plurality of locking teeth to secure the clasp body against movement in at least one axial direction lengthwise of the elongate rail with the clasping flanges received in the clasp body and a pair of opposing levers, each lever being operatively associated with a jaw and the clasp body, the levers being configured so upon being squeezed together a first distance the jaws release the clasping flanges so that the clasp body can be moved radially relative to the clasping flanges.
