ABSTRACT:
A restraint for grasping limbs and appendages includes an elongated pole having a generally U-shaped pair of arms extending from the forward end thereof. A pair of jaws are pivotally secured to the end portions of the U-shaped arms and are pivotally movable between opened and closed positions. A ratchet mechanism is operative upon each of the pivotable jaws to permit inward movement of the jaws with substantial ease while preventing outward pivotal movement of the jaws. A pair of flexible bands are coupled in a criss-cross attachment between the outer ends of each pivotal jaw and the oppositely positioned U-shaped portion arms. The intersecting point of the criss-crossing flexible bands supports an encircling annular ring. As the restraint is thrust against a target limb or appendage positioned between the U-shaped portions and pivotal jaws, the flexible bands curve about the target appendage drawing the pivotal jaws inwardly in an enclosing pivotal motion which is permitted by the ratchet mechanism. Thereafter, release is resisted by the ratchet mechanisms operative upon the pivotal jaws.
