ABSTRACT:
A self-locking strap mechanism includes inner and outer hollow tubes each having a pair of spaced holes and a separate actuator aperture defined therethrough. The outer hollow tube is inserted over the inner hollow tube. The strap mechanism also includes a length of flexible strap. The length of strap is routed through the holes of the inner and outer hollow tubes. The inner and outer hollow tubes are longitudinally movable relative to one another between locked and released positions wherein the respective holes are aligned and misaligned with one another such that portions of the inner and outer hollow tubes frictional grip and release the length of strap routed therethrough.
