The present invention provides an elongated segmented binding cord (SBC) for reversibly housing and securing goods to their predetermined location; said SBC is characterized by a main longitudinal axis (MLA), comprising: a. a plurality of N interlockable segments; b. abutments provided at least one first end, and at least one second opposite end of the SBC; each of said abutments is adapted to at least reversibly attach said predetermined location; wherein by attaching said at least two abutments to their location, said SBC is reversibly transformed from at least two opposite states: LOOSE (non-arched) configuration and a TIGHTENED (arched) configuration, such that said goods are at least partially housed in a secured manner within the arched SBC.

1. A method for reversibly housing and securing goods to a predetermined location, said method comprising steps of: a. providing an elongated segmented binding cord with a main longitudinal axis; a plurality of interlockable segments; at least one ligament; and at least two abutments located at least one first end, and at least one second opposite end of said elongated segmented binding cord; each of said abutments is adapted to at least reversibly attach said predetermined location;b. attaching said at least two abutments to their location; andc. applying pressure upon the segments; at least two abutments provided at least one first end of said elongated segmented binding cord and at least one second opposite end of said elongated segmented binding cord,wherein by attaching said two abutments to their location, and providing said ligament to apply a pressure upon said segments, said elongated segmented binding cord is reversibly transformed from said LOOSE (non-arched) configuration to said TIGHTENED (arched) configuration, such that said goods are at least partially housed in a secured manner within said arched elongated segmented binding cord;and further wherein said at least one ligament is positioned along the elongated segmentedbinding cord's main longitudinal axis and externally to at least one of said segments. 2. The method according to claim 1, further comprising steps of: a. interlocking a segment to at least one of the two adjacent segmentsb. threading a ligament through or along at least two of said segments;c. securing said elongated segmented binding cord structure to the predetermined location by means of effectively affixing said abutments to said location; and,d. shortening said ligament and thereby providing said ligament a predetermined amount of tension applied on said segments;wherein by attaching said two abutments to their location, and shortening said ligament, said elongated segmented binding cord is reversibly transformed from said LOOSE (non-arched) configuration to said TIGHTENED (arched) configuration, such that said goods are housed in a secured manner within said arched elongated segmented binding cord. 3. A method for reversibly housing and securing goods to a predetermined location by means of a two-dimensional elongated segmented binding cord; said method comprising steps of: a. providing a plurality of elongated segmented binding cords;b. for each of said plurality of said elongated segmented binding cords, interlocking a segment to least one of two adjacent segments; and threading a ligament through or along at least two of said segments; and further threading said ligament externally to at least one of said segments;c. conjugating at least one first elongated segmented binding cord with at least one second elongated segmented binding cord such as a 2D elongated segmented binding cord net-like loose structure is obtained;d. securing said loose 2D elongated segmented binding cord structure to said predetermined location by means of effectively affixing abutments to said location; and,e. shortening the ligaments and thereby providing said ligaments a predetermined amount of tension applied on said segments;wherein by attaching said abutments to their location, and shortening the ligament, said 2D elongated segmented binding cord is reversibly transformed from its LOOSE (non-arched) configuration to its TIGHTENED (arched) configuration, such that said goods are housed in a secured manner within the arched 2D net-like elongated segmented binding cord. 4. A method for reversibly encapsulating goods to a predetermined location by means of a three-dimensional elongated segmented binding cord, said method comprising steps of: a. providing a plurality of elongated segmented binding cords ;b. for each of said plurality of elongated segmented binding cords , interlocking a segment to least one of two adjacent segments; and threading a ligament through or along at least two of said segments; and further threading said ligament externally to at least one of said segments;c. conjugating at least one first elongated segmented binding cord with at least one second elongated segmented binding cord; and optionally with at least one third elongated segmented binding cord, such as a 3D elongated segmented binding cord case-like loose structure is obtained;d. securing said loose 3D elongated segmented binding cord structure to the predetermined location by means of effectively affixing abutments to said location; and,e. shortening the ligaments and thereby providing said ligaments a predetermined amount of tension applied on said segments;wherein by attaching said abutments to their location, and shortening the ligament, said 3D SBC is reversibly transformed from its LOOSE (non-arched) configuration to its TIGHTENED (arched) configuration, such that said goods are housed in a secured manner within the arched 3D case-like elongated segmented binding cord.
