ABSTRACT:
A cord lock comprising an outer telescoping member having at least two side walls and a bottom wall, defining an interior cavity, and an inner telescoping member slidable within the cavity of the outer telescoping member. Both the inner and outer telescoping members have apertures extending through their side walls. The inner and outer telescoping members are biased against each other by biasing means such as a spring, so that the apertures are not aligned and are able to pinch a cord threaded through the apertures. There is at least one leg attached to the inner telescoping member and extending into the interior cavity of the outer telescoping member. The leg has a T-shaped free end. There is at least one flexible leg retaining means located within the outer telescoping member, which is adapted to lock the inner telescoping member into first and second locking positions. In the first locking position, the apertures on the inner and outer telescoping members are aligned for feeding a cord therethrough. In the second locking position, the apertures are not aligned to pinch the cord.
