ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a slip grip device, which permits a cord to be adjusted to any given position or length. It adjusts through a tension mechanism, while allowing the cord to break apart at a pre-determined pressure, thus ensuring safety in the event that the cord is inadvertently caught. An interference fit within keyways and keyway cavities of the mechanism allowing for anchoring a cord and adjusting its length. This mechanism serves as an anchor for the end of various types of cord, while enabling the cord to slip with a set resistance, while providing enough grip to hold at any desired length or location. The cord length can be readjusted and reset countless times. The device consists of two parts designed to fit together around the cord. The invention contains no moving parts and there is no glue, springs staples, wire, wax, nor heat used in assembly.
