    摘要: A dynamically expandable rigid waistband system includes one or more rigid belt portions coupled to an expandable and adjustable waistband portion. The ends of one or more rigid belt portions are movably coupled to form a dynamically adjustable rigid belt ring. The dynamically adjustable rigid belt ring can expand or contract as the movably coupled ends of the one or more rigid belt portions move relative to each other by greater or smaller amounts. The dynamically adjustable rigid belt ring is then coupled to the expandable and adjustable waistband portion so that when the expandable and adjustable waistband portion expands or contracts, the dynamically adjustable rigid belt ring similarly expands or contracts to provide the comfort, range of motion, and adaptability of an expandable and adjustable waistband as well as a rigid structure for attaching devices safely and securely to the waistband.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a strap component and strap component system. The strap component has a first strap component piece and a second component piece. Each strap component piece has one or more teeth, each teeth having a base with a base width, a tip with a tip width, two side surfaces extending from the tip to the base, and a hole extending through both side surfaces. The first strap component piece and second strap component piece may be arranged whereby the one or more teeth of the first strap component piece and the one or more teeth of the second strap component piece are vertically staggered. In this arrangement, the holes of all of the teeth may be aligned whereby a connecting member may be configured through the holes to connect the first strap component piece and the second strap component piece.

    摘要: A two-part clip for making a waistband smaller including a U-shaped cover and a U-shaped sinch. The cover has a top wall and opposing sidewalls, one of which has a T-shaped connector and the other of which has a protrusion. The sinch has a top wall and opposing sidewalls with oppositely directed longitudinal fins on the inboard side. A first of the sinch sidewalls has a slot for receipt of the T-shaped connector and the second of which has a sloped dome on the outboard side with a guideway for directing the protrusion on the cover into a well provided in the dome. The cover has an aperture in the top wall into which the top wall of the sinch is received with abutment ledges in the aperture received in detents in the top cover of the sinch as the cover is slid over the sinch.
