Abstract:

A restraint mechanism for a set of handcuffs, the handcuffs including a pair of openable bracelet sections, each of the bracelet sections including a locking mechanism for opening and closing a bracelet section. The bracelet sections are tethered together by a linkage that includes a restraint mechanism that permits a bracelet section to be rotated about an axis extending through the linkage and the bracelet sections so as to rotate said bracelet section in a first rotational direction to a predetermined angular position, but in which the bracelet section is prevented from movement in a second reverse rotational direction once the predetermined angular position has been achieved.
