ABSTRACT:
An anti-slip locking device employs an elongated member having first and second opposite ends and an external surface extending between its ends. The member has a bore extending between its ends in the direction of elongation and a least one slot in its outer surface which extends between the ends of the member and is parallel to the bore. The slot has a first cross-sectional area. An elastic cord has first and second opposite ends and has a second cross-sectional area which is larger than said first area when the cord is free of tension. The cord has a third cross-sectional area smaller than the first area when the cord is subjected to tension. The third area decreases in size as the tension increases. The cord extends slidably through the bore with its first end disposed outside of the member adjacent the first member end. The second end of the cord is disposed outside of the member adjacent the second member end and forms a loop adjustable in size. The loop is adapted to receive an end of an electric power cable whereby the loop can be reduced in size by pulling the first end of the cord away from the first member end until the cable end is held firmly within the loop. An element is removably disposable in the bore at the first member end to hold the cord in the position in which it is placed when the article is held firmly within the loop thereby preventing slippage of the cord. A portion of the cord between the means and the first cord end adjacent the means is aligned with the slot whereby when the this portion is subjected to a force of tension, the portion can be fitted into the slot and thereafter locked removably in position by removing the force.
