Claim:
A cord management sleeve for retaining juxtaposed segments of a cord together, comprising; first and second hollow tubular shells; said first hollow tubular shell having a first entire length and said second hollow tubular shell having a second entire length; said first entire length being longer than said second entire length; said second hollow tubular shell being coaxially and movably mounted over a central segment of said first hollow tubular shell such that a first end portion of said first hollow tubular shell extending beyond a first end of said second hollow tubular shell relative to said central segment and a second end portion of said first hollow tubular shell extending beyond a second end of said second hollow tubular shell relative to said central segment; said first end portion being opposite from said second end portion relative to said first entire length of said first hollow tubular shell, and said first end being opposite from said second end relative to said second entire length of said second hollow tubular shell; each of said first and second hollow tubular shells having a C-shaped cross-section; a projection of said C-shaped cross-section in said first hollow tubular shell along said first entire length of said first hollow tubular shell being uniform along said first entire length of said first hollow tubular shell, and defining a first slot extending there through, along said first entire length of said first hollow tubular shell, and a projection of said C-shaped cross-section in said second hollow tubular shell along said second entire length of said second hollow tubular shell being uniform along said second entire length of said second hollow tubular shell and defining a second slot extending there through, along said second entire length of said second hollow tubular shell, and said first and second slots being movable relative to each other by rotation of said first and second hollow tubular shells relative to each other, for selectively aligning said first and second slots with each other for inserting said juxtaposed segments of said cord inside said first and second hollow tubular shells or for setting off an alignment of said first and second slots relative to each other for securing said juxtaposed segments of said cord inside said first and second hollow tubular shells.
