Abstract A binding locker is disclosed including a band having a rack of teeth thereon and a socket having a hole for receiving a leading end of the band. A locking member having a plurality of locking teeth thereon is disposed within the socket's hole so that the locking teeth mesh with the engaging teeth of the rack to thereby tie the socket and band together thus binding a plurality of objects such as wires together. The socket hole has a curved surface disposed to face or oppose the locking member and for receiving a mating, oppositely curved surface of the band. Further, the locking member is connected to the socket to be rotatable within the hole and further, has a projection extending oppositely of its locking teeth. An opening is disposed within the socket at substantially right angles with the axis of the socket hole to receive the projection of the locking member. Further, the band has a pair of ribs extending lengthwise therealong between which the rack of teeth extend.
A binding locker for binding a plurality of objects together, said binding locker comprising: (a) a band having a rack of engaging teeth formed on one surface thereof, said band having a leading end and a connecting end; (b) a socket connected to said connecting end of said band and having a hole having an axis extending therethrough for receiving said leading end of said band, said socket further including an opening in communication with said hole and disposed at substantially right angles with said axis, said hole having a locking member projecting therein, said locking member having a plurality of locking teeth for meshing with said engaging teeth when said band is inserted within said hole, whereby said leading end of said band and said socket are securely tied together to bind the plurality of objects; (c) wherein said locking member has a projection disposed oppositely of said locking teeth and within said opening; and (d) wherein said opening has an engaging surface and said locking member is secured to said socket in a manner to be movable as a force is exerted upon said band tending to withdraw it from said socket, whereby said projection is brought into contact with and is stopped by said engaging surface.
