ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a tie down device for securing a load. It includes a bracket having a top and a bottom, a front and a back, a first side and an opposite side. It also includes a strap with the top of the bracket having means to attach one end of the strap to it and the strap is at least long enough to wrap around a load and to be placed between the sides of the bracket such as the strap extends past the bottom of the bracket. There is also a cam with one side of the bracket having means to rotatably mount the cam. The cam has a serrated surface with which to make contact and grip the strap. A plate is located on the opposite side of the bracket so that when the strap is placed between the sides of the bracket, the cam contacts the strap and restraining force is applied to the opposite sides of the strap by both the plate and the cam. An additional surface on the plate serves to captivate the strap once engaged. In one preferred embodiment, an operator wheel is included with the cam to enable a quick opening of the cam for one handed insertion of the strap.
