ABSTRACT:
A holding system and method that comprises a self-closing sleeve for holding an elongate article. The sleeve is formed between the spaced, lateral attachment of a retaining strip and base strip. Additionally, the sleeve uniquely provides an open-biased end that allows for the trouble-free insertion of an elongate article into the sleeve. The retaining strip has a relaxed length and a stretched length. One longitudinal edge of the retaining strip is maintained at a stretched length by an impeding member, while the opposing edge freely contracts to the relaxed length. As such, the lateral attachment of two portions of the retaining strip that are substantially parallel when in a relaxed length provide the open-biased end. Similarly, the spacing of the lateral attachments facilitates the self-closing feature of the sleeve by maintaining tension in the sleeve that allows the sleeve to securely and reliably hold an elongated article. Additionally, the holding system may comprise a rigid base, that may be flexed, affixed to the base strip. Further, an intermediate strip may be provided between the retaining strip and the base strip. Preferably, the intermediate strip and the base strip are complementary hook-and-loop plies that further aid in holding the elongate article. Finally, the invention also includes a method for making the holding system.
