Abstract: A clutch includes first and second sheaves, the first sheave including a housing with a slot. A bar is inserted within the slot and a bolt engaged with a threaded opening in the bar and tensioned such that it presses against the second sheave forcing it outwardly against a biasing force. The bar may include two end portions with different widths for two different types of clutches, each end portion including a threaded opening. The clutch may include a slider mounted to the second sheave and positioned with the slot. The bar may include a recess on a bottom surface providing clearance for the slider.

Abstract: A ratcheting belt system with opposed rollers and quick release capability provides two opposed rollers which frictionally allow a tightening belt of a safety harness, cargo securement system, between themselves compressively, via a manually operated ratcheting handle such that the excess length of belt distal to the active portion used for securement is passed through the system substantially parallel to the active portion of belt, and need not be contained on a spool. A ratchet mechanism prevents back-out of the belt through the buckle, a manually operated lever provides for opening of the rollers away from each other and easy, quick exit of the driver, passenger, or cargo from securement.
