ABSTRACT:
The restraining apparatus includes a housing having an interior. A first end of a binding loop strap is attached to the interior of the housing and a second end is routed through the housing and connected to a handle for pulling with one hand. The binding loop is slideably movable in a first direction to reduce the overall dimension of the loop. The binding loop is slideably movable in a second direction to expand the overall dimension of the binding loop. A locking mechanism is disposed in the interior of the housing and connects to the binding loop. The locking mechanism includes both a lower cleat and an upper cleat for controlling the movement of the binding loop through a groove within the locking mechanism. When the lower cleat is engaged, the overall dimension of the binding loop decreases. When the upper cleat is engaged, the overall dimension of the binding loop increases.
