The pin extends substantially between the shackle apertures when inserted in the shackle and the tongue.

Abstract: A positioning and binding buckle includes a main body and a positioning element, and the main body is formed by bending a plate to form two side plates and a connecting portion, and a hollow is formed between the two side plates and two stop portions are formed at the bottom of the two side plates and passed through a buckle hole a containing hole containing a compression spring, and positioning element is disposed across the two side plates by its cut groove and limited between at least two opposite lugs, and the positioning element is passed through the containing hole by an insert pin and pushed by the bottom edge of the compression spring, and the positioning element can be lifted towards the connecting portion and pushed back by the compression spring, such that the bottom is aligned evenly with the stop portion.

Abstract: A utility anchor having a retracted configuration and an extended configuration and can operate as a tether or anchor in either configuration. It includes an anchor body having a through hole, a rod slidably disposed in the through hole and having a first end and a second end, a rope connector disposed on the first end of the rod, a stopper disposed on the second end of the rod, and a locking element disposed on the rod. A spring disposed between the rope connector and the anchor body urges the apparatus into the retracted configuration, wherein the longitudinal axis the stopper and the anchor body are generally parallel and the locking element is disposed within the anchor body. When the anchor is in the extended configuration, the longitudinal axe of the stopper and the anchor body are not parallel and the stopper is spaced apart from the anchor body.

Abstract: A cable connector assembly comprises a first stop, a second stop, and a connector. The first stop is configured and arranged to receive a first end of a cable, and the second stop is configured and arranged to receive a second end of the cable. The connector is configured and arranged to pivotally interconnect the first stop and the second stop.

Abstract: A honda device for separating a honda to allow easy retrieval of a rope includes a rope having a honda positioned adjacent a lariat end of the rope. The honda has a break therein to define a first end and a second end of the honda. A female coupler is coupled to the first end of the honda. The female coupler has a receiving bore extending into a free end of the female coupler. A male coupler is coupled to the second end of the honda. The male coupler includes an insertion end being inserted into the receiving bore of the female coupler to releasably secure the male coupler to the female coupler. The male coupler is selectively removed from the female coupler to break the honda.

Abstract: The tool saver hand tool systematic tethering safety device is intended for use with hand tools (which could be defined as tools intended to be used by an operators hands, by way of the hand tools' handle, or grip). Hand tools are well known to drop accidentally out of an operators' hands, and the tool saver hand tool systematic tethering safety device will stop said hand tool from falling completely away from said operator, through the use of the systems' hand tool receiving apparatus, having been fit securely onto any hand tool, being then attached, through the use of its center linkage assembly, to a wrist piece, which, then, said wrist piece, fits comfortably, and securely onto an operators wrist.
