FASTENING DEVICE FOR FASTENING OBJECT
A fastening device includes a base, a cover partially covered on the base to define an accommodation space therebetween and two openings in communication between the accommodation space and the space outside the cover, a cord running over four corners of the cover and defining two tying sections respectively corresponding to the openings, and a cord fastener engaged with any two positions of the cord. Thus, an object can be fixed in the accommodation space through the tying sections of the cord.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to a fastening device, and more specifically to a fastening device that can securely fasten an object thereto.
2. Description of the Related Art
A conventional bag, such as a backpack or purse, generally has an accommodation space inside for accommodation of personal things and a plurality of rings or holes on an outer surface thereof for holding bar-shaped objects, such as pens, stationery, or umbrellas.
However, when a user walks and carries the bag, the bar-shaped objects may easily drop from the rings or holes of the bag because of sudden vibration. Thus, the rings or holes of the bag are ineffective to fasten the bar-shaped objects.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention has been accomplished in view of the above-noted circumstances. It is one objective of the present invention to provide a fastening device, which is effective to fasten objects thereto.
To achieve this objective of the present invention, the fastening device provided by the present invention comprises a base, a cover, a cord and a cord fastener. The cover is partially covered on the base to define an accommodation space therebetween and two openings in communication between the accommodation space and the space outside the cover. The cord runs over four corners of the cover and defines two tying sections respectively adjacent to and substantially parallel to the openings. The cord fastener can be firmly engaged with any two positions of the cord to determine the degreed of tightness of the cord or can be operated to be movable on the cord.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cover includes a covering piece partially covered on the base to define the aforesaid accommodation space, and four loops mounted on four corners of the covering piece for penetration of the cord. Besides, the cord fastener is controllable by an external force to act between a locking status where the cord fastener is firmly engaged on any two positions of the cord and a releasing status where the cord fastener is movable on the cord.
In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fastening device further comprises a belt disposed in the accommodation space and has two ends thereof respectively extending through the openings and being connected with the base such that a piercing space is formed between the belt and the base for penetration of the cord.
Further scope of applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.
The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given herein below and the accompanying drawings which are given by way of illustration only, and thus are not limitative of the present invention, and wherein:
Referring to
The base 10 has a predetermined area and can be a surface of a bag, a backpack, a purse or other flexible objects.
The cover 20 is provided with a covering piece 21 made of flexible fabrics and four loops 22 mounted on four corners of the covering piece 21. The covering piece 21 has two opposite long sides stitched on the base 10 to define an accommodation space 211 and two openings 212, as shown in
The cord 30 is elastic, penetrating through the loops 22 of the cover 20 to form two tying sections 31 respectively corresponding to and substantially paralleling the openings 212, and an intersecting section 32 between the tying sections 31.
Two ends of the cord 30 pass through the cord fastener 40 and then are tied together. The cord fastener 40 can be controllable by an external force to act between a locking status where the cord fastener 40 is firmly engaged and clamped on any two positions of the cord 30 and a releasing status where the cord fastener 40 is movable on the cord 30, such that the degree of tightness of the cord 30 can be decided by the clamped position of the cord fastener 40 on the cord 30.

Further, as shown in
Referring to
When the cord 70 penetrates through the loops 62 of the cover 60, the tying sections 71 of the cord 70 will be wrapped around the belt 90 such that the tying sections 71 of the cord 70 are still corresponding to the openings 612.
