A slider garage includes an overmolded body, the overmolded body oriented on a zipper, the overmolded body including an overmolded male portion and an overmolded female portion, the overmolded male and female portions positioned on an end of the zipper, such that each is on one side of the zipper, the overmolded male portion being shaped such that it fits in the overmolded female portion in a watertight fashion and the overmolded body is molded over a portion of the zipper.

Systems and methods for extruded zippers, zipper garages, connection techniques, and uses therefore

Systems and methods for improved zipper slider garage

An apparatus includes a body, the body including an attachment mechanism for mounting the body; and a twist tie, the twist tie integrated with the body.

Systems and methods for mountable and connectable twist ties

A slider garage includes an overmolded body, the overmolded body oriented on a zipper, the overmolded body including an overmolded male portion and an overmolded female portion, the overmolded male and female portions positioned on an end of the zipper, such that each is on one side of the zipper, the overmolded male portion being shaped such that it fits in the overmolded female portion in a watertight fashion. Optionally, the zipper includes a male side and a female side, and the overmolded male portion is positioned on the male side of the zipper and the overmolded female portion is positioned on the female side of the zipper.

An apparatus for securing items includes a twist tie and a stretchable end for the twist tie, the stretchable end molded around the twist tie. The stretchable end includes an aperture, a narrow slit in the stretchable end. In one configuration, the aperture may stretch wider and longer than a starting shape. The stretchable end is made of Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) and has a durometer between 30 and 100 shore A.

Systems and methods for a cord holder

A system for installing a cord sleeve includes a first lever arm, the first lever arm including a first protrusion approximately perpendicular to the first lever arm. The system further includes a second lever arm, the second lever arm including a second protrusion approximately perpendicular to the second lever arm. The first and second lever arm intersect at a pivot point and are pivotally attached to each other at the pivot point, such that the first protrusion and the second protrusion are parallel and adjustment to each other, the first lever arm and the second lever arm having a first position where the first protrusion and the second protrusion are together and a second position where the first protrusion and the second protrusion are separated. The system further includes the first lever arm includes a ball portion at the pivot point.

Cord sleeve device and installation tool and method for use

A lacing device includes a lace body, the lace body having a length, width, depth, and cross-sectional area spanning the width and the depth of the lace body, the cross-sectional area of the lace body shaped such that the lace body is prone to folding about a middle area of the width when the lace body is compressed.

Lacing device and systems and method therefor

Key ring

A zipper includes a ball portion. The zipper portion further includes a socket portion. The ball portion includes a leading edge, the leading edge composed of a first material having a low coefficient of friction. The ball portion includes a trailing edge and a neck portion, the trailing edge and neck portion composed of a second material. The socket includes a socket opening, the socket opening composed of the first material. The socket includes a socket interior, the socket interior composed of the second material.
