ABSTRACT:
A Trouser Guard Coil (99) is a watch spring shape strip (100) of springable material used to bind objects together. The Trouser Guard Coil has a first end (101), a second end (102), a top edge (103), and a bottom edge (104). Top and bottom edges (103and104), are parallel volute coils that extend from the first end (101) to the second end (102). The strip (100) has a front surface (105) on the exterior side of the coil, and a rear surface (106) on the interior side. The Trouser Guard Coil is employed by simultaneously uncoiling the strip (100) from the volute form and recoiling it in a helical manner to bring the rear surface (106) into contact with a mounting surface (107), such as a trouser leg worn by a user. In a preferred embodiment, the front surface (105) is highly reflective of optical light, and the strip (100) has a cushion material (109) to aid comfort and positional stability.
