Description
- The present invention relates to buckles and more specifically to buckles which are easy to adjust and can be connected quickly.
- Buckles are used for securing many different items from pants to safety belts. An early style of buckle was two D-rings attached to one end of a strap and the other end of the strap was threaded through the D-rings around the outside of the one D-ring and then back through the center of the second D-ring. The strap is then pulled tight. A similar buckle is shown in United States Patent No. 4,878,274 issued on November 7, 1989 to H. R. Patricy which shows a strap having a hook and loop type fastener thereon which is threaded through one D-ring and secured by bringing the two portions of the hook and loop type fastener together. A particular disadvantage of both types of buckles is that it can be difficult to thread one end of the strap through the D-ring.
- Another securement system is shown in United States patent No. 3,057,354 issued on October 9, 1962 to D.R. Roberts et al. which shows a supporting device for a sanitary napkin including conventional sanitary napkin attaching clips and adjustable straps. The length of the straps are adjustable by the use of hook and loop type fasteners. One end of the sanitary napkin is attached to a clip by threading it through the aperture and pushing it down onto the spikes, in a fashion somewhat similar to the use of a D-ring, and then securing it in the C-shaped opening. A particular disadvantage of this attaching system is that it can be difficult to position the one end of the sanitary napkin in the clip.
- Another fastening system is shown in United States patent No. 1,187,132 issued June 13, 1916 to M.C. Caulkins which shows a system for supporting stockings. The stocking is clamped between a male member and female member. A particular disadvantage of this system is that it can only be used to connect members which do not have a lot of strain put on them.
- Taken alone or in combination none of these prior art references show a buckle which can be quickly connected, quickly readjusted and quickly released and which can withstand a certain amount of force. Further, none of these prior art references taken alone or together show a buckle which allows for one hand operation.
- It is an object of the invention to provide a buckle device that can be quickly connected and adjusted.
- In accordance with one aspect of the invention there is provided a buckle device including a male strap member which has a longitudinal axis, distal end portion and an intermediate portion. A female member of the device has an aperture formed therein dimensioned to receive the strap member, a strap engaging portion adjacent to the aperture for restraining movement of the strap member, a slot extending through an outer edge of the female member and in communication with apertures for guiding the strap member into engagement with the strap engaging portion and a protrusion extending inwardly from the outer edge of the female member for preventing the strap in the aperture from moving into the slot. The strap distal end portion releasably engages the strap intermediate portion.
