A device for retaining a cord or other elongated flexible element against relative longitudinal movement including a first member to which an actuating member is mounted for relative pivotal movement between locking and released positions, and a locking member carried by the actuating member for swinging movement therewith, and for swinging movement relative thereto, to clamp a cord or cords against the first member, with the latter preferably containing a recess having an essentially curving wall against which the locking member presses the elongated element in locking condition, and with the curving wall preferably being defined by a series of teeth following a curving pattern. The device may lock two spaced cords or cord ends, which may be directed to properly located positions between the gripping members by reception within spaced locating recesses in the locking member and by reception at opposite sides of a locating projection carried by the first mentioned member.

24134R

A device for locking one or more cords or other flexible elements against longitudinal movement, and including two members interconnected for relative pivotal movement between locking and released positions, with one of the members having a portion which is slightly laterally deflectible upon assembly of the device to permit movement of a pivot lug into a pivot recess to form the pivotal connection between the members, and with the other member having an interlocking projection which in the locking relative position of the members blocks lateral movement of the deflectible portion of the first member to prevent disassembly of the parts in that locking position.

24191

A device for gripping an elongated flexible element, such as a flexible belt, and including a first member, an actuating member mounted to swing relative to the first member between locking and released positions, and a locking member connected to the actuating member for swinging movement therewith and acting in the locking position to clamp the elongated element against a gripping portion of the first member in a relation retaining the elongated element against longitudinal movement, with said locking member being free for limited pivotal movement relative to the actuating member in a relation acting to progressively tighten the grip on said elongated element as a result of said pivotal movement of the locking member relative to the actuating member when the latter is in its locking position.

24115G

A cord lock having a body containing a plunger which can be pressed inwardly relative to the body against the resistance of an actuating spring, with the body and plunger having apertures through which a cord or cords can extend and which have edges acting to grip the cords when the plunger is in a predetermined locking position. The apertures are desirably of oblong sectional shape, and the gripping edges of the plunger and body are preferably sharpened in a relation assuring effective clamping of the cord.

24117

A cord lock including a body containing a passage through which two cords extend, and a slide received at least partially within the passage and movable relative to the body between a locking position retaining the cords against longitudinal movement and a released position permitting such movement, with the body having a wall defining a side of the passage laterally adjacent one of the cords and containing a slot through which that cord is movable laterally or transversely of its length out of the passage and to the exterior of the body to enable complete detachment of one of the cords from the body when desired.

24136R

A device for locking cords or the like against longitudinal movement, and including a slide received within a tapering passage in a body and movable axially relative to the body, with a cord extending along a path between a locking portion of the slide and a side wall of the tapering body passage, and with the cord being gripped by a wedging action when the cord is pulled longitudinally, and also by a spring action attained by yieldingly urging the locking portion laterally toward the side wall of the body independently of the camming action. Preferably, the slide has two such locking portions formed as two arms yieldingly urged laterally away from one another and defining two paths along which a pair of cords or the like extend at opposite sides of the slide, with each cord being gripped by both a wedging action and spring action.
