  • Publication number: 20140263925
    Abstract: A tipover prevention and seismic securement system for securing furniture and appliances from tipping over. The system employs mounts which are engaged to a surface of an article to be secured. A planar belt having apertures therein provides a tether between the mount through an engagement with projections on the mount and apertures in the belt at a first end and a securement position at a second end. Translating members secure the belt in its engagement to the mount. The translating members once engaged must be unlocked to allow removal thereof and subsequent removal of the belt.
