  • Patent number: 4953819
    Abstract: An adjustable support clamp apparatus and method for clamping is defined. The support clamp has two arcuate pliable bands with an adjustable coacting connection at their first adjoining ends and a coacting off-center tension clamp at their second adjoining ends. There is a resilient pliable gasket, with a textured surface, secured to each of the arcuate pliable bands. The adjustable connection at the first adjoining ends has an extension on a first band with a plurality of ports into which are placed a joining means that is on the end of a second extension of the second band. The joining means hinges in the ports to provide easy opening and closing of the clamp around a pole or barlike object and to provide a clamp that will adjust its diameter to accommodate poles or bars with varying diameters. The clamp has a plurality of supporting means that have a shaft with a spiral hook at one end and has its other end pivotally attached to the arcuate pliable bands.

  • Patent number: 4768689
    Abstract: A multi-purpose sling includes an elongated flexible strap with a hook attached to one end, with the other end of the strap attached to the middle bar of a slide buckle threaded on the strap, thereby forming an adjustable loop. A second hook is attached to a ring which is threaded onto the strap in the adjustable loop. Each hook is J-shaped and large enough to freely hold the string of a compound bow.In a second embodiment, a hook is attached to one end of a flexible strap and the strap is then looped through a large ring. The strap is then threaded through a ring attached to the strap near the first hook, and then through a second ring which is loose on the strap. The other end of the strap is then fastened to the large ring to form a double loop arrangement. A second hook is connected to the loose ring. In this embodiment, the hooks are generally U-shaped with a narrow throat portion which will snap onto a ring or similar member on the item to be carried.
