ABSTRACT:
A device (10) for securing together a bundle (26) of objects includes a support member (12) to which a longitudinally stretchable and resilient cord (14) is integrally affixed. The support member includes a handle (24) to facilitate gripping of the device and the bundle in a hand with the device against the bundle. The support member further includes one or more vertical wedges (18, 20) and one or more horizontal wedges (22) for gripping and holding the cord in a wrapped position about the bundle. Each of the vertical wedges includes a pair of generally vertical walls (30) defining a cord-receiving channel (28), and a pair of edges (32) formed in the walls and defining a cord-gripping space between the edges narrower than the unstretched diameter of the cord, the edges engaging and holding the cord in a stretched position. The horizontal wedge includes a C-shaped channel (34) for receiving the cord, the recess being narrower than the unstretched diameter of the cord, and an edge (36) in the C-shaped channel for engaging and holding the cord in a wrapped position.
