Tool-hanging rope

Abstract

A tool-hanging rope includes an extendable and retractable connecting band unit and two retaining ring units. The connecting band unit includes a pleated cloth band and a plurality of main resilient strings extending within the pleated cloth band along the length of the connecting band unit and connected to the pleated cloth band by knitting. The retaining ring units are fastened respectively to two opposite ends of the connecting band unit. One of the retaining ring units includes a retaining ring that is openable to allow a tool to be sleeved thereon and that is closable to prevent the tool to be removed therefrom.

1 . A tool-hanging rope comprising:
 an extendable and retractable connecting band unit including a pleated cloth band and a plurality of main resilient strings extending within said pleated cloth band along the length of said connecting band unit and connected to said pleated cloth band by knitting; and   two retaining ring units fastened respectively to two opposite ends of said connecting band unit, one of said retaining ring units including a retaining ring that is adapted to be openable to allow a tool to be sleeved thereon and that is adapted to be closable to prevent the tool to be removed therefrom.   
     
     
         2 . The tool-hanging rope as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said pleated cloth band has:
 a plurality of first lengthwise areas disposed at a side of an assembly of said main resilient strings and spaced apart from each other along the length of said connecting band unit;   a plurality of second lengthwise areas disposed at an opposite side of the assembly of said main resilient strings and spaced apart from each other along the length of said connecting band unit; and   a plurality of connecting areas for interconnecting said first and second lengthwise areas, such that each of said first lengthwise areas is connected to an adjacent one of said second lengthwise areas by a corresponding one of connecting areas.   
     
     
         3 . The tool-hanging rope as claimed in  claim 2 , further comprising two side resilient strings retained on and extending respectively along two opposite sides of said connecting band unit. 
     
     
         4 . The tool-hanging rope as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein each of said retaining ring units further includes a connecting member that that is configured as a woven band and that has an inner end sewn to a corresponding of two ends of said connecting band unit, and an outer end connected to said retaining ring. 
     
     
         5 . The tool-hanging rope as claimed in  claim 4 , further comprising a loop-shaped cord sleeved on one of said retaining rings of said retaining ring units. 
     
     
         6 . The tool-hanging rope as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said main resilient strings are spaced apart from each other in a direction transverse to the length of said connecting band unit.
