A ratchet strap apparatus includes a tensioning strap adapted to be selectively tensioned and a cargo strap adapted to be secured to the apparatus using an inboard pin and an outboard pin and bending the cargo strap into a loop. In one embodiment, the outboard pin is secured to a side wall and an opening is provided between the outboard pin and another side wall whereby the outboard pin may be inserted into a cargo strap loop. In another embodiment, the outboard pin is slidingly received through a hole in one side wall and is selectively unseated from a saddle on the other side wall for insertion into the cargo strap loop. In yet another embodiment, the outboard pin is secured between two side walls and the inboard pin is selectively removable from and seated on saddles in each of the walls whereby the inboard pin extends therebetween.

1. A ratchet strap apparatus comprising a tensioning strap adapted to be selectively tensioned, an inboard pin and an outboard pin secured to the apparatus, and a cargo strap selectively attachable to the apparatus by bending into a loop with a slack end on one side thereof and a cargo engagement end on the other, locating the outboard pin through the loop and both the slack end and cargo engagement end around the inboard pin, the slack end being sandwiched between the inboard pin and the cargo engagement end whereby tension on the cargo engagement end frictionally secures the slack end between the cargo engagement end and the inboard pin, wherein: the outboard pin extends from a side wall to a terminal end;an opening is provided between the terminal end and another side wall;the outboard pin is located through the loop by inserting one of the loop slack end or cargo engagement end through the opening; and,said two walls are formed by bending a sheet into a U-shape with said two walls extending from a base portion, wherein a bridge is provided in the base between said walls forming said inboard pin and an arm is provided in the base extending from one of the walls forming said outboard pin. 2. The ratchet apparatus of claim 1 wherein, between said bridge and arm, said one wall and part of said base portion form an L-shaped beam for supporting the arm. 3. The ratchet apparatus of claim 2 further comprising a stop member on the outboard pin terminal end formed by bending a terminal end of said arm for preventing inadvertent withdrawal of the pin from the loop while said loop is engaged over and on the outboard pin. 4. The ratchet apparatus of claim 1 wherein an inboard opening is provided through said base portion and said bridge is located between said inboard opening and said arm. 5. The ratchet apparatus of claim 4 wherein, between said bridge and arm, said one wall and part of said base portion form an L-shaped beam for supporting the arm. 6. The ratchet apparatus of claim 5 further comprising a stop member on the outboard pin terminal end formed by bending a terminal end of said arm for preventing inadvertent withdrawal of the pin from the loop while said loop is engaged over and on the outboard pin. 7. A ratchet strap apparatus comprising a tensioning strap adapted to be selectively tensioned, an inboard pin and an outboard pin secured to the apparatus, and a cargo strap selectively attachable to the apparatus by bending into a loop with a slack end on one side thereof and a cargo engagement end on the other, locating the outboard pin through the loop and both the slack end and cargo engagement end around the inboard pin, the slack end being sandwiched between the inboard pin and the cargo engagement end whereby tension on the cargo engagement end frictionally secures the slack end between the cargo engagement end and the inboard pin, wherein: the outboard pin extends from a side wall to a terminal end;an opening is provided between the terminal end and another side wall;the outboard pin is located through the loop by inserting one of the loop slack end or cargo engagement end through the opening; and,said two walls are formed by bending a sheet into a U-shape with said two walls extending from a base portion and an arm is provided in the base extending from a first one of the walls and forming said outboard pin. 8. The ratchet apparatus of claim 7 wherein, between said inboard pin and said arm, said first one wall and part of said base portion form an L-shaped beam for supporting the arm. 9. The ratchet apparatus of claim 7 further comprising a stop member on the outboard pin terminal end formed by bending a terminal end of said arm for preventing inadvertent withdrawal of the pin from the loop while said loop is engaged over and on the outboard pin. 10. A ratchet strap apparatus comprising a tensioning strap adapted to be selectively tensioned, an inboard pin and an outboard pin secured to the apparatus, and a cargo strap selectively attachable to the apparatus by bending into a loop with a slack end on one side thereof and a cargo engagement end on the other, locating the outboard pin through the loop and both the slack end and cargo engagement end around the inboard pin, the slack end being sandwiched between the inboard pin and the cargo engagement end whereby tension on the cargo engagement end frictionally secures the slack end between the cargo engagement end and the inboard pin, wherein: the outboard pin extends from a side wall to a terminal end;an opening is provided between the terminal end and another side wall;the outboard pin is located through the loop by inserting one of the loop slack end or cargo engagement end through the opening; and,said two walls are formed by bending a sheet into a U-shape with said two walls extending from a base portion, and a first one of the walls between said inboard pin and said outboard pin is L-shaped forming a beam for supporting said outboard pin. 11. A ratchet strap apparatus comprising a tensioning strap adapted to be selectively tensioned, an inboard pin and an outboard pin secured to the apparatus, and a cargo strap selectively attachable to the apparatus by bending into a loop with a slack end on one side thereof and a cargo engagement end on the other, locating the outboard pin through the loop and both the slack end and cargo engagement end around the inboard pin, the slack end being sandwiched between the inboard pin and the cargo engagement end whereby tension on the cargo engagement end frictionally secures the slack end between the cargo engagement end and the inboard pin, wherein: the outboard pin extends from a side wall to a terminal end;an opening is provided between the terminal end and another side wall;the outboard pin is located through the loop by inserting one of the loop slack end or cargo engagement end through the opening; and,said side wall between said inboard pin and said outboard pin is L-shaped forming a beam for supporting said outboard pin. 12. The ratchet apparatus of claim 11 wherein an inboard opening is provided between said side walls and said inboard pin is located between said inboard opening and said outboard pin. 13. The ratchet strap apparatus of claim 12 further comprising a stop member on the outboard pin terminal end projecting beyond an outer surface of said outboard pin and preventing inadvertent withdrawal from the loop while said loop is engaged over and on the outboard pin.
