A releasably-engageable strap loop having a unitary body is configured to enhance the securement of a strap or other material within a limited range of motion. The strap loop can be employed to secure, among other things, a head-mounted display unit to a wearable article worn by an individual, facilitating restricted movement of the head-mounted display unit relative to the individual's preferred field of view or any other part of the individual while the individual is active. The releasably-engageable strap loop can include, among other things, a unitary body that can receive a strap, such as one employable to secure a head-mounted display unit to a wearable article or safety gear worn by an individual. In some embodiments, the releasably-engageable strap loop can also include a securing member that is releasably or permanently securable to an external body, providing additional securement and restriction of movement of the head-mounted display unit relative to the individual.

1. A releasably-engageable strap loop comprising: a unitary body having a gate member and a hooked-frame member, the gate member including a first elbow end joining a second elbow end of the hooked-frame member,wherein the gate member further includes a first engaging end opposite the first elbow end, the first engaging end having an outwardly-facing flange and at least one notched portion that together present a set of leg members and a corresponding set of outwardly-facing feet members,wherein the hooked-frame member further includes a second engaging end extending from a bended portion of the hooked-frame member opposite the second elbow end, the second engaging end having at least one inwardly-facing flange and the bended portion having at least one inwardly-facing saddle member, wherein the at least one inwardly-facing saddle member is configured to complement the set of leg members and the inwardly-facing flange is configured to complement the corresponding set of outwardly-facing feet members when the strap loop is in an engaged state. 2. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 1, wherein the unitary body comprises a rigidly-flexible material. 3. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 2, wherein the rigidly-flexible material includes a polymer. 4. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 1, wherein the releasably-engageable strap loop receives a first strap of a tri-band strap. 5. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 4, wherein the releasably-engageable strap loop is located between a front clip and a tri-glide buckle on the tri-band strap. 6. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 4, wherein at least one additional releasably-engageable strap loop receives the first strap of the tri-band strap. 7. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 1, wherein a continuously enclosed inner region is formed when the at least one inwardly-facing saddle member complements the set of leg members and the inwardly-facing flange complements the corresponding set of outwardly-facing feet members in the engaged state. 8. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 7, wherein the tri-band strap rests within the continuously enclosed inner region. 9. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 1, wherein the gate member has a first body portion and the hooked-frame member has a second body portion, the first body portion and the second body portion being configured to present an acute angle when the strap loop is in a disengaged state, and further being configured to be substantially parallel when the strap loop is in the engaged state. 10. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 1, the unitary body also having a strap loop securing member disposed opposite the inwardly-facing saddle member of the bended portion, the strap loop securing member being operable to secure the releasably-engageable strap loop to an external body. 11. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 10, wherein the strap loop securing member includes a clip portion. 12. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 11, wherein the clip portion is configured to secure the releasably-engageable strap loop to a cap brim on a bump cap. 13. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 12, wherein the releasable engagement of the clip portion of the securing member to the cap brim prevents the tri-band strap from moving while secured to the bump cap. 14. A releasably-engageable strap loop comprising: a securing member having a clip portion; anda unitary body having a gate member and a hooked-frame member, the gate member including a first elbow end joining a second elbow end of the hooked-frame member,wherein the gate member further includes a first engaging end opposite the first elbow end, the first engaging end having an outwardly-facing flange and at least one notched portion that together present a set of leg members and a corresponding set of outwardly-facing feet members,wherein the hooked-frame member further includes a second engaging end extending from a bended portion of the hooked-frame member opposite the second elbow end, the second engaging end having at least one inwardly-facing flange and the bended portion having at least one inwardly-facing saddle member, wherein the at least one inwardly-facing saddle member is configured to be releasably coupled to the set of leg members and the inwardly-facing flange is configured to be releasably coupled to the corresponding set of outwardly-facing feet members when the strap loop is in an engaged state. 15. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 14, wherein the clip portion of the strap loop securing member is configured to secure the releasably-engageable strap loop to an external body. 16. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 14, wherein pressure is applied to a first body portion of the gate member to releasably couple the inwardly-facing saddle member to the set of leg members and the inwardly-facing flange to the outwardly-facing feet members to form the engaged state. 17. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 14, wherein the gate member has a first body portion and the hooked-frame member has a second body portion, the first body portion of the gate member being pivoted in a direction opposite the second portion of the hooked-frame member when the strap loop is in a disengaged state. 18. The releasably-engageable strap loop of claim 17, wherein the disengaged state results in an open inner region. 19. A method of manufacturing a releasably-engageable strap loop, the method comprising: obtaining a mould having a cavity;melting a rigidly-flexible material; andemploying an injection moulding device to inject the melted rigidly-flexible material into the cavity of the mould so that a releasably-engageable strap loop is formed in accordance with a shape presented by the cavity,wherein the releasably-engageable strap loop includes a unitary body having a gate member and a hooked-frame member, the gate member including a first elbow end joining a second elbow end of the hooked-frame member,wherein the gate member further includes a first engaging end opposite the first elbow end, the first engaging end having an outwardly-facing flange and at least one notched portion that together present a set of leg members and a corresponding set of outwardly-facing feet members,wherein the hooked-frame member further includes a second engaging end extending from a bended portion of the hooked-frame member opposite the second elbow end, the second engaging end having at least one inwardly-facing flange and the bended portion having at least one inwardly-facing saddle member,wherein the at least one inwardly-facing saddle member is configured to be releasably coupled to the set of leg members and the inwardly-facing flange is configured to be releasably coupled to the corresponding set of outwardly-facing feet members when the strap loop is in an engaged state. 20.
