Abstract: A connection assembly incorporating a striker of elongated configuration including a base platform and an elongated pin segment projecting away from one side of the base platform. A housing holding the striker includes a plurality of internal snap arms normally extending in inwardly angled relation. The elongated pin segment extends along an axial passageway such that the distal ball head and at least a portion of the striker shaft project outwardly away from the housing with the internal snap arms behind the base platform. A striker catch engages the distal ball head upon insertion into the striker catch.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cord lock device for use in connection with wearing apparel comprising an integrally molded housing including a back support securely connectible to the wearing apparel by means such as, for example stitching. The housing is adapted to receive a pivotally biased cam lock member having a release lever or button. In use, one end of a cord is securely fastened to the back support of the device or to the apparel and the free end of the cord is threaded through the housing adjacent the cam lock member and is positioned for selective pulling, the cord portion defined between the one and free ends of the cord defining a cord loop. The cord loop is sewn into the material of the apparel so that when the free end of the cord is pulled, the material is pulled into close contact with the adjacent part of the body. The preferred location of the device is at the cuffs of a jacket or pants so that they may be pulled about the wrists or legs of the wearer.
