Systems and methods for a harness attachment hook
Described embodiments provide systems and methods for an attachment mechanism for attaching a strap around a body extremity. The attachment mechanism includes a hook, a first channel, and a second channel. The hook includes a first longitudinal axis and coupled to the strap at a first region of the hook. The first channel allowing the attachment mechanism to receive the strap. The second channel extending from the first channel and having an opening allowing the attachment mechanism to secure the strap, the opening extending along a second longitudinal axis, the second longitudinal axis forming an angle of less than ninety degrees with the first longitudinal axis. The strap is coupled to a harness. The strap includes a first portion, an attachment portion attached to the first portion, a main portion attached to the attachment portion; and an elastic portion attached to the main portion.
1. A system for an attachment mechanism for attaching a strap around a body extremity comprising:
a hook having a first longitudinal axis and coupled to the strap at a first region of the hook;
a first channel allowing the attachment mechanism to receive the strap;
a second channel extending from the first channel and having an opening allowing the attachment mechanism to secure the strap, the opening extending along a second longitudinal axis, the second longitudinal axis forming an angle of less than ninety degrees with the first longitudinal axis;
a cord attached at a third region of the hook;
a fastener attached to the cord; and
a Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying Equipment (MOLLE) T mount engaged to the fastener.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the angle formed by the second longitudinal axis is less than twenty degrees with the first longitudinal axis.
3. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a third channel between the first channel and the second channel, the third channel having a first slit with a first area for gripping the strap.
4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the third channel includes a second slit with a second area and a third slit with a third area, wherein the third area is less than the second area, wherein the second area is less than the first area.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the strap comprises:
a first portion;
an attachment portion attached to the first portion;
a main portion attached to the attachment portion; and
an elastic portion attached to the main portion.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the strap further comprises a hook-fastener disposed between the attachment portion and the main portion.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the first channel is capable of receiving the hook-fastener of the strap.
8. The system of claim 5 , wherein the main portion includes a rivet for receiving a pressure ratchet.
9. The system of claim 5 , wherein the attachment portion has a first elasticity.
10. The system of claim 5 , wherein the elastic portion has a second elasticity.
11. A method for attaching a strap around a body extremity for controlling blow flow comprising:
providing an apparatus comprising:
a hook having a first longitudinal axis and coupled to the strap at a first region of the hook;
a first channel to receive the strap;
a second channel extending from the first channel and having an opening to secure the strap, the opening extending along a second longitudinal axis, the second longitudinal axis forming an angle of less than ninety degrees with the first longitudinal axis;
a cord attached to a third region of the hook;
a fastener attached to the cord; and
a mount engaged to the fastener;
wrapping the strap around a junction;
receiving, by the second channel, the strap to secure the strap around the junction;
disconnecting the fastener from the mount responsive to wrapping the strap around the junction; and
extending the cord responsive to wrapping the strap around the junction.
