Bungee cord with interlocking hooks

Abstract

Interlocking hook assemblies for elastic straps include an elastic memberincluding a pair of similar interlocking hook devicesconnected to each end of elastic member. Each interlocking hook device, is provided with a connectorwhich is fixedly attached thereon. Each hook device can be connected, preferably in a locking manner, onto the other hook device creating a closed hook assembly thereby disabling the hooks to prevent entanglement of elastic or rigid straps when not in use or during storage and/or transportation. Multiple elastic strapscan be connected end-to-end forming an elongated elastic strap of desired length having closed central hooks with open hooks on each end. Interlocking hook assemblies for elastic members include an elastic member with interlocking hook devicesincluding two similar interlocking hook deviceswith a connector grooveand a catch featureand elastic member. Each interlocking hook deviceis provided with a grooveand catch featuredesigned to allow each hook to engage the other within their respective grooves and to releasably lock them together. Each hook device can be engaged and preferably locked onto the other hook device thereby disabling the hooks to prevent entanglement of the elastic member when not in use or during storage and/or transportation. Multiple elastic memberscan be connected end-to-end forming an elongated elastic strap of desired length having closed central hooks with open hooks on each end.
