Abstract

A strap tensioning device includes a base member, an engaging member coupled to the base member, a handle member pivotally attached to the base member with a pivot axle and rotatably relative to the base member for tensioning a tension strap, the tension strap is engaged over the pivot axle and includes an engaging member coupled to one end. An auxiliary pulling handgrip is attached to the other end of the strap, for being firmly grasped by the users, and for being forcefully pulled by users to tension the strap. The auxiliary pulling handgrip includes a chamber, and preferably a lever engaged in the chamber, to separate the chamber of the handgrip into two separated passages, for engaging with the strap.

1 . A strap tensioning device comprising: 
 a base member,    a first engaging member coupled to said base member,    a handle member pivotally attached to said base member with a pivot axle, and rotatably relative to said base member, for tensioning a tension strap,    said tension strap being engaged over said pivot axle, and including a first end having a second engaging member coupled thereto, and including a second end, and    an auxiliary pulling handgrip attached to said second end of said tension strap, for being forcefully pulled by users.
