US Patent 11939178 Device for winding up cargo ties comprising spring-loaded clamp

A device for neatly winding up cargo ties includes a moveable clamp arm a first end of which projects out of an opening of the housing such that the clamp arm and the housing together form a pair of jaws that can selectively be placed about a variety of surfaces and tightened. The jaws are loosened and tightened through the rotation of a threaded rod that engages with a second end of the clamp arm at the interior of the housing causing movement of the clamp arm along a clamping axis. In some embodiments, a nut which is prevented from rotating, is disposed at the second end of the clamp arm and comprises threading that engages with the threading on the threaded rod moving the clamp arm along the clamping axis.
