  • Publication number: 20240008559
    Abstract: This application is related to a clamp that can provide, for an associated fastener (e.g., hook and receiver or other male/female style fastener), a robust connection to a textile (e.g., a strap or other textile portion that is releasably attachable to another textile portion). For example, the fastener can include a first connector (e.g., hook) for releasably mating with a corresponding second connector (e.g., receiver). In addition, the first connector can include a clamp for providing a fixed connection to a first textile, and the second connector can include a clamp for providing a fixed connection to another textile (e.g., the first and second textiles to be releasably connected to each other via the fastener). In at least some examples, the clamp can include a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate. In addition, a portion of the textile can be secured in a clamping groove between the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate.
