Abstract

This invention relates to an apparatus for restraining cargo securely in or on a vehicle seat. In particular, the invention relates to an apparatus for anchoring a strap, cord, or cable to a vehicle seat, which in turn secures and restrains cargo in or on the vehicle seat. The apparatus secures cargo to a vehicle seat with a rear by anchoring a strap to the vehicle seat. It includes an anchor plate and wedge-shaped slotted unit communicably attached to the anchor plate for channeling the strap therethrough, whereby the anchor plate bears against the rear of the vehicle seat, thereby securing the cargo to the vehicle seat.
