ABSTRACT:
Devices for securing a first object to a second object, comprising a preformed, flexible strap having a first end and a second end, and including a first opening preferably located in the vicinity of the first end and a spaced apart second opening preferably located in the vicinity of the second end of the strap. The openings are designed to releasably receive the first object. A strap receiving aperture is formed in the strap intermediate the first opening and the second opening of the strap, and is designed to slidably receive one end of the strap to form a loop which is capable of encircling a second object. A method for securing and supporting a first object athwart a second object using such a strap includes the steps of encircling the second object with the strap and inserting the second end of the strap into the strap receiving aperture, releasably inserting one end of the first object into the first or second opening, releasably inserting an end of the first object into the available opening, and then pulling on both ends of the strap so that the first object and the second object are urged together, with a portion of the strap between them. The strap has specific utility for securing and supporting as a first object a flashlight or other accessory to a second object such as a bicycle in an antislipping, fixed, cushioned and predetermined position.
