ABSTRACT:
An anchoring apparatus eliminates the need for an anchor plate and an anti-rattle member. The anchoring apparatus includes a flexible connector member which may be embodied as a strip of fabric material. An end of the connector member is disposed to form a loop and then attach to the remaining body of the connector member. The loop defines an anchor aperture which is configured to receive and retain an anchor bolt. The loop may further be configured with one or more twists to consolidate the connector member around the aperture. The twists allow the aperture to better engage and retain the anchor bolt due to the higher concentration of material. The attachment of the end to the connector member ensures retention of the twists in the loop. Attachment of the end is achieved by use of a fastener which may be embodied as stitches, adhesives, rivets, clips, staples and so forth.
