ABSTRACT:
An organization including a shock cord defined by elongate elastomeric cord including a rigid hook member mounted to each terminal end of the cord with the including a body fixedly secured to the cord and a hook directed downwardly overlying the body. The cover assembly includes a conical cover including a tapered neck portion wherein the neck portion surroundingly and slidingly engages the elastomeric cord to permit overlying covering of the hook member during periods of non-use to prevent snagging of the cord upon undesirable objects.
Modifications of the invention include a cover assembly formed of a sponge fluid absorbent material including a conduit member to permit allocation of fluid into the cover to insure ease of slidability of the cover relative to the cord as well as providing a protectant about the hook member to prolong longevity of the hook and cord during use. Further modification includes a split cover assembly fixedly mounted about the hook to provide selective access to the hook and a further cover formed of a flexible fabric utilizing hook and loop fastener portions formed about spaced lateral edges of the cover to permit surrounding covering of the hook as desired.
