Abstract Disclosed is a grommet made of a synthetic resin, which comprises two members adapted to be coupled into embracing engagement, said members each provided at the opposed end portions thereof with a pair of inclined protrusions of which the directions of inclined edges, when observed in front elevation, cross each other. When said two members of the grommet are coupled with each other, therefore, said inclined protrusions closely approach each other at both said end portions so as to firmly grip a cord passed between the two members and said close mutual approach of the inclined protrusions causes the cord to twist itself between one end portion and the other end portion of the coupled members because of said crossed relationship of the directions of the inclined edges of said protrusions. This twist in the cord serves the purpose of preventing the cord from freely moving in the direction of its length.
A grommet, which comprises a pair of members, one of said pair of members being possessed of a U groove and provided at the bottom of said groove with a pair of inclined protrusions of which the directions of the inclined edges, when observed in front elevation, cross each other substantially perpendicularly and the other member being adapted to be coupled into fitting engagement with said U groove and provided with a pair of inclined protrusions of which the directions of the inclined edges, when observed in front elevation, cross each other substantially perpendicularly in such a way that, when the latter member is inserted into the fitting engagement with said U groove, said inclined protrusions confront the pair of inclined protrusions formed on the bottom of the former member, whereby a cord interposed between said two members is gripped fast in a twisted state because of the crossed relationship of the inclined edges of the pairs of inclined protrusions when the two members are pressed against each other into fitting engagement.
