Abstract

The present invention relates to reusable bundle tie devices, comprising a strap ( 1 ) with transversal knurl teeth ( 11 ), associated with an enclosement buckle with an upper top ( 4 ) elevated from the strap leading end ( 2 ) by a solid state side wall ( 3 ), forming a longitudinal channel ( 12 ) and aperture for transversal docking and undocking of the strap middle part by cross slipping over the tooth unit ( 7 ). The enclosement flap ( 6 ) linked to the leading end ( 2 ) by flexible state reduced portion ( 5 ) locks the buckle by means of one top latch between two cam locks ( 19 and 20 ) contiguous to each stopper ( 13 and 14 ) and one bottom latch between two cam locks ( 17 and 18 ) that replace the flexible portion ( 5 ) during enclosement. This enclosement buckle is opposite to the tail end ( 8 ), comprising a suspension hook ( 9 ) or slot ( 10 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie, comprising a bundle knurled strap ( 1 ) with a tail at one end ( 8 ) and an enclosement buckle on its opposite end, shaped in a solid state manner by a side wall ( 3 ), the upper top ( 4 ) and the strap leading head ( 2 ), thus forming a lateral aperture to the channel ( 12 ) for transversal docking and undocking of the knurled strap ( 1 ) after bundling and set to be enclosed by a double latch side flap ( 6 ), interconnected to the said leading head ( 2 ), by a membrane ( 5 ) shaped in a flexible state manner. 
     
     
         2 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 1 , wherein a lower latch comprises an enclosement side flap ( 6 ) bottom pawl-shaped cam groove longitudinal protrusion ( 17 ) and a lug-shaped cam groove longitudinal protrusion ( 18 ) shaped from the strap leading head ( 2 ). 
     
     
         3 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 1 , wherein the said buckle enclosement comprises a flexible membrane ( 5 ) in the path of the longitudinal channel ( 12 ), interconnecting the strap leading head ( 2 ) and the side flap ( 6 ) in a flexible manner. 
     
     
         4 . An adjustable double latch a multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 1 , wherein an upper latch comprises an inward facing cam shape longitudinal protrusion ( 19 ) on the enclosement side flap ( 6 ), designed to engage onto an outward facing wedge-shaped longitudinal protrusion ( 20 ) on the buckle upper top ( 4 ) outer edge. 
     
     
         5 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 1 , wherein there is an inverted clamping orientation between the lower latch and upper latch, in which the side flap ( 6 ) cam protrusions ( 17  and  19 ) envelop the leading head ( 2 ) buckle cam protrusions ( 18  and  20 ) on the outer side, in order to increase outward tensile load capacity of the buckle upper top ( 4 ). 
     
     
         6 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 1 , comprising one enclosement guide and stopper ( 13  and  14 ) on each of the aforementioned upper protrusions ( 19 ,  20 ), in order to increase longitudinal tensile load capacity of the enclosement side flap ( 6 ). 
     
     
         7 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 1 , comprising an enclosement and opening aid flexible lever-shaped extension ( 21 ), formed from the tip of the buckle enclosement side flap ( 6 ). 
     
     
         8 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 1 , comprising circumflex and edge free shape of the knurl, between the teeth root ( 15   a  and  15   b ) transition cross-section and both ( 16   a  and  16   b ) broadsides, thus preventing bundle tie ( 1 ) jam along the tooth pawl ( 7 ) edge, wherein there is the said transversal docking and undocking of the knurl teeth ( 11 ) into the buckle channel ( 12 ) lateral aperture. 
     
     
         9 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 1 , wherein the said tail end ( 8 ) of the knurled bundle strap ( 1 ) includes, for example, a hook-shaped groove ( 9 ), slot ( 10 ), in order to interconnect and group with other bundling ties or suspend onto adjacent structures. 
     
     
         10 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 1 , characterised by the bundling strap ( 1 ) transversal docking and undocking of the bundle strap's ( 1 ) middle part, through the buckle's lateral aperture, regardless of the typical front window incursion, of the tail end ( 8 ) into the buckle's channel ( 12 ). 
     
     
         11 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 2  wherein there is an inverted clamping orientation between the lower latch and upper latch, in which the side flap ( 6 ) cam protrusions ( 17  and  19 ) envelop the leading head ( 2 ) buckle cam protrusions ( 18  and  20 ) on the outer side, in order to increase outward tensile load capacity of the buckle upper top ( 4 ). 
     
     
         12 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 4 , wherein there is an inverted clamping orientation between the lower latch and upper latch, in which the side flap ( 6 ) cam protrusions ( 17  and  19 ) envelop the leading head ( 2 ) buckle cam protrusions ( 18  and  20 ) on the outer side, in order to increase outward tensile load capacity of the buckle upper top ( 4 ). 
     
     
         13 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 2 , comprising one enclosement guide and stopper ( 13  and  14 ) on each of the aforementioned upper protrusions ( 19 ,  20 ), in order to increase longitudinal tensile load capacity of the enclosement side flap ( 6 ). 
     
     
         14 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 4 , comprising one enclosement guide and stopper ( 13  and  14 ) on each of the aforementioned upper protrusions ( 19 ,  20 ), in order to increase longitudinal tensile load capacity of the enclosement side flap ( 6 ). 
     
     
         15 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 5 , comprising one enclosement guide and stopper ( 13  and  14 ) on each of the aforementioned upper protrusions ( 19 ,  20 ), in order to increase longitudinal tensile load capacity of the enclosement side flap ( 6 ). 
     
     
         16 . An adjustable double latch multipurpose bundle tie of  claim 3 , comprising an enclosement and opening aid flexible lever-shaped extension ( 21 ), formed from the tip of the buckle enclosement side flap ( 6 ).
