Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The disclosure relates generally to straps for securing one object to another object, and more particularly, to a reclosable strap assembly.


BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

Wearable devices that strap on to a user have become increasing popular, particularly in the business sector. Businesses can outfit their workers with wearable devices to increase worker productivity while keeping the worker's hands free for performing tasks.


Typically, wearable devices are removably attached to a user by one or more releasable straps. To attach the device to an arm (e.g., at the wrist), the user places the strap around the arm and secures the strap to itself using a clasp (e.g., buckle).


The weight of the wearable device can make securing the strap difficult. As the user is attempting to secure the strap to itself using the clasp, the weight of the wearable device may cause the strap to separate from itself, thereby inhibiting the securing of the strap. This phenomenon can result in user frustration and wasted time as the user struggles to secure the wearable device in position.


What is needed is a means for attaching a wearable device to a user that avoids frustration and wasted time. In particular, what is needed is a reclosable strap assembly that will not separate from itself under the weight of the wearable device.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In one aspect, the present disclosure embraces a reclosable strap assembly. The reclosable strap assembly includes an elongate strap having a first end. The first end includes a plurality of engaging segments. The reclosable strap assembly also includes a clasp attached to the elongate strap. The clasp includes a frame that defines a frame opening for receiving the first end. Each of the plurality of engaging segments is sized such that the individual engaging segment is releasably secured to the frame via an interference fit when the individual engaging segment is inserted into the frame opening.


In an exemplary embodiment, each of the plurality of engaging segments is configured to disengage (e.g., release) from the frame upon application of a sufficient pulling force to the first end.


In another exemplary embodiment, the first end includes a plurality of non-engaging segments. Each of the plurality of non-engaging segments is sized to pass substantially freely past the frame when inserted into the frame opening.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present disclosure is directed toward a reclosable strap assembly. The reclosable strap assembly includes an elongate strap. To hold the strap in position to allow for securing of the clasp, the elongate strap includes a plurality of engaging segments. Typically, these engaging segments represent lateral segments of the elongate strap that are wider than the non-engaging portions. When the strap is passed through the frame of the clasp in preparation for securing the strap to itself using the clasp, the engaging segments prevent the strap from sliding out of the frame.


Typically, the engaging segments are slightly wider than the frame. For example, a typical elongate strap configured for securing to a human arm may have engaging segments that are 110 percent of the width of the narrowest portion of the frame opening. By way of further example, if the narrowest lateral width of the frame opening of a particular reclosable strap assembly is 20 millimeters, the engaging segments may have a width of 22 millimeters. Consequently, as an engaging segment passes through the frame of the clasp, the engaging segment is compressed by the frame. This compression helps secure the elongate strap in position while the user engages the clasp.


Referring to the figures in the accompanying drawings, certain illustrative embodiments of the system according to the present disclosure will be described in great detail, where like elements will be indicated using like reference numerals. Turning now to the drawings, FIG. 1 depicts an exemplary reclosable strap assembly 100 according to the present disclosure. The reclosable strap assembly includes an elongate strap 102. Typically, the elongate strap 102 is manufactured from a flexible material. More typically, the elongate strap 102 is manufactured from a resilient or semi-resilient material. The elongate strap 102 includes a first end 104.


The reclosable strap assembly also includes a clasp 110 (e.g., buckle or similar securing member). The clasp 110 is attached to the elongate strap 102. Typically, the clasp 110 secures the elongate strap 102 in position around an object by securing


(e.g., fastening, attaching, etc.) the elongate strap to itself. For example, a traditional clasp utilizes a tongue (e.g., prong, tang, etc.) placed in an aperture defined by the elongate strap. The clasp 110 includes a frame 112 that defines a frame opening 114. The frame opening 114 is configured for receiving the elongate strap's first end 104. Typically, the frame 112 is manufactured from a rigid material (e.g., metal).


The elongate strap's first end 104 includes a plurality of engaging segments 106. Typically, an engaging segment 106 includes a lateral section of the elongate strap 102. Each of the engaging segments is sized to create an interference fit between the engaging segment and the frame. In other words, when an engaging segment 106 passes through (e.g., is inserted into) the frame opening 114, the engaging segment, due to its width, contacts the frame (e.g., the portion of the frame adjacent to the frame opening) in a manner sufficient to generate an interference fit. Typically, because the engaging segment 106 is compressed by the frame as it enters the frame opening 114, the resulting resistance results in the interference fit (e.g., friction fit). This interference fit resists any force tending to pull the first end 104 back out of the frame 112 (e.g., by the movement or jostling, by the weight of the elongate strap, by the weight of a wearable device, etc.).


Although the interference fit provides an amount of resistance to keep the elongate strap in position vis-à-vis the frame (e.g., positioned through the frame opening), the resistance is limited. Typically, the engaging segment 106 is configured


(e.g., is a suitable width) for creating an interference fit with the frame 112 that becomes dislodged upon application of a sufficient pulling force to the first end 104 (or other portion of the elongate strap 102). Typically, the sufficient pulling force is an amount of force that an average human can exert with one hand using minimal to moderate effort. In other words, the engaging segment 106 should be of a proper width (and material composition) to create sufficient resistance


(e.g., through an interference fit) to keep the first end in position, but not so much resistance as to make it difficult for a user to pull the first end through (or release the first end from) the frame opening.


Because the level of resistance generated by the interface between the engaging segment and the frame affects the efficacy of the reclosable strap assembly, the configuration of the lateral edge(s) of the engaging segments 106 can affect performance. An engaging segment 106 typically contacts the frame at the engaging segment's laterally-opposing lateral edges. As shown in FIG. 2, in one embodiment of the reclosable strap assembly 100 according to the present disclosure, each of the plurality of engaging segments has a lateral edge(s) that is chamfered to (i) facilitate insertion of the individual engaging segment into the frame opening 114 and (ii) resist withdrawal of the individual engaging segment from the frame opening 114.


In one embodiment, the reclosable strap assembly's first end includes a plurality of non-engaging segments 108. Each of the plurality of non-engaging segments is sized to pass substantially freely


(e.g., without resulting in an interference fit) past the frame 112 when inserted through the frame opening 114. Typically, each of the plurality of engaging segments is separated from the other engaging segments by a non-engaging segment. In other words, the first end is typically formed, at least in part, by a repeating series of engaging segment/non-engaging segment pairs. By configuring the first end 104 in this way, a ratcheting effect is achieved when the first end is inserted through the frame opening 114. The ratcheting effect derives from the alternating between resistance from the engaging segments 106 and relatively no resistance from the non-engaging segments 108.


The first end 104 may be configured in a variety of ways. Adjacent engaging segments and non-engaging segments


(e.g., engaging segment/non-engaging segment pairs) may be integral with each other, thereby forming a continuous strap. Alternatively, adjacent engaging segments and non-engaging segments may be hingedly attached to each other.


As depicted in FIG. 3, in another aspect, the present disclosure embraces a wearable device assembly 120. The wearable device assembly 120 includes a wearable device 116. Without limiting the disclosure, exemplary wearable devices include smartphones, mobile computers, tablet computers, smartwatches, indicia readers (e.g., barcode scanner), and similar portable electronic devices.


The wearable device assembly 120 also includes an elongate strap 102 having a first end that includes a plurality of engaging segments 106 and a plurality of non-engaging segments 106. The wearable device 116 is attached to the elongate strap 102. A clasp 110 is attached to the elongate strap 102. The clasp 110 includes a frame that defines a frame opening 114 for receiving the first end 104.


As mentioned above, the engaging segments 106 are configured to achieve the appropriate (e.g., most effective) level of resistance as the first end is passed through the frame opening. Because the wearable device 116 may be relatively heavy (e.g., greater than about 300 grams), the resistance level should be sufficient to prevent dislodgment of the first end in the frame opening by the weight of the wearable device. For instance, when a user is attempting to secure the wearable device to an object (e.g., the user's arm), the wearable device may tend to rotate downward (e.g., to the underside of the user's arm) due to the weight of the wearable device, thereby exerting force on the elongate strap. This force tends to withdraw the elongate strap from the frame opening.


To avoid an unwanted withdrawal, the engaging segments are configured such that the interference fit between the individual engaging segment and the frame is maintained when the elongate strap (i) is secured around an object and (ii) is bearing the full weight of the wearable device.
