Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a buckle component having a base body and a clamping bar, wherein the base body has a belt receiving opening and the clamping bar is displaceably mounted on the base body in the belt receiving opening for clamping a belt guided around the clamping bar between the clamping bar and an edge of the base body delimiting the belt receiving opening.
  • Buckle components of this type are known in a variety of designs.
  • the clamping bar in such buckle components is slidably mounted in the belt receiving opening, so that a belt wrapped around it can be clamped between the clamping bar and an edge of the base body bordering the belt receiving opening.
  • a generic buckle component is , for example, in the WO 2012/109682 A1
  • the use of the slidably mounted clamping bar has the advantage of allowing very rapid adjustment of the strap in the buckle component.
  • a disadvantage of this technology is that the strap is generally only clamped sufficiently tightly between the clamping bar and the edge of the base body bordering the strap opening as long as a corresponding tension is maintained on the strap. If this tension on the strap is no longer present or no longer present to a sufficient extent, the clamping connection will loosen. between the clamping bar and the edge surrounding the belt opening. This can then lead to unintentional adjustment of the belt in the buckle component.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to propose a solution which eliminates the problems mentioned and prevents unintentional adjustment or slipping of the belt in the buckle component.
  • the invention proposes that in a buckle component of the type mentioned at the outset, the buckle component additionally has a flap which is pivotably mounted on the base body by means of a pivot joint, wherein the flap has a clamping surface for clamping the belt between the clamping surface of the flap and the clamping web in a clamping position of the flap.
  • the invention thus provides a flap which is attached or formed directly on the buckle component and secures the belt against unintentional adjustment even when the tension on the belt is currently not sufficient to ensure that the belt is clamped firmly between the clamping bar and the edge bordering the belt opening.
  • the fact that the flap is part of the buckle component in the invention also has the advantage that the flap is not so easily lost and no extra component is required in addition to the buckle component.
  • the invention also provides that the flap, with its clamping surface, clamps the belt directly between the clamping surface of the flap and the clamping bar. This secures the belt directly at the clamping bar against unintentional slipping between the clamping bar and the edge bordering the belt opening, even when the tension on the belt is released.
  • the flap also has the advantage that it can be very easily folded back and forth between the clamping position and a release position by opening and closing it, whereby the belt is clamped between the clamping surface of the flap and the clamping bar in the clamping position and the clamping surface is lifted off the belt in the release position, so that in the release position the belt can be easily adjusted on the buckle component.
  • the buckle component is advantageously designed so that it can be releasably connected to a counter-buckle component to form a buckle.
  • This can be a belt buckle that serves to releasably connect two belts.
  • Both buckle components that are connected to form the buckle can be be designed according to the invention, or even just one of them.
  • Advantageous embodiments provide that the buckle component according to the invention has a plug-in extension for fastening in a plug-in extension receptacle of a counter-buckle component, or that the buckle component according to the invention has a plug-in extension receptacle for fastening a plug-in extension of a counter-buckle component in the plug-in extension receptacle.
  • the belt can be clamped or is clamped in the clamping position of the flap between the clamping surface of the flap and the clamping web.
  • the flap In order to secure the flap in the clamped position and prevent it from accidentally folding away from the clamped position into the release position, preferred embodiments of the invention provide for the flap to be lockable in the clamped position on the base body by means of a locking device.
  • This locking device can be formed on the flap or be part of the flap. In other embodiments, however, the locking device can also be formed or at least fixed on the base body of the buckle component.
  • Preferred embodiments provide for the locking device to be an elastic latching hook.
  • This latching hook can also be strip-shaped. It is preferably fixed or formed on the flap. As already mentioned, the latching hook can also be fixed or formed on the base body of the buckle component.
  • Preferred variants provide that the locking device, in the clamping position, engages behind an outer side of the base body facing away from the belt receiving opening to lock the flap.
  • the locking device therefore does not engage in the belt receiving opening, although this would also be possible in principle in other embodiments.
  • An advantage of embodiments in which the locking device engages behind an outer side of the base body facing away from the belt receiving opening is that the flap is thereby held relatively well and stably on the base body in the clamping position. It is particularly preferably provided that the locking device is arranged or formed on a side of the flap opposite the pivot joint or engages the flap.
  • the clamping surface of the flap In order to apply the forces required to clamp the belt as simply and securely as possible, preferred variants provide for the clamping surface of the flap to be arranged in an area between the pivot joint and the locking device.
  • the clamping surface is designed as the surface of a spring tongue of the flap.
  • the spring tongue advantageously elastically pretensions the clamping surface towards the clamping position, which is advantageous for securely clamping the belt between the clamping surface and the clamping web.
  • the use of a spring tongue also has the advantage that belts of very different thicknesses can be securely clamped between the clamping surface and the clamping web, since the spring tongue and its elastic deflection ensure automatic adjustment to the respective thickness of the belt.
  • the clamping of the belt between the clamping surface and the clamping web can be implemented as a pure frictional connection through appropriate surface designs.
  • preferred embodiments of the invention provide for a toothing on the clamping surface for positive engagement with the belt.
  • the belt is thus held between the clamping surface and the clamping web not only by friction but also by positive engagement when the flap is in the clamped position.
  • particularly preferred variants also provide for a toothing on the locking device for positive engagement with the belt. This is particularly advantageous when the locking device is designed as an elastic latching hook.
  • the toothing can be designed as individual teeth on both the clamping surface and the locking device, but also as toothed strips or the like, or distributed over a flat surface on the clamping surface or the locking device.
  • toothing(s) to have tooth flanks of varying steepness in opposing directions, which, when the flap is in the clamped position, allow retensioning of the belt in one tensioning direction and lock the belt in a direction opposite to the tensioning direction.
  • the correspondingly different steepness of the tooth flanks in such design variants can ensure that, on the one hand, the steeper tooth flanks securely hold the belt, while, on the other hand, the less steep tooth flanks allow retensioning of the belt without the flap having to be released from the clamped position.
  • the pivot joint is formed between the flap and a flap carrier, and the flap carrier is attached or can be attached to the base body by means of a snap-in connection.
  • the flap carrier could just as easily be arranged or formed fixedly on the base body of the buckle component.
  • the snap-in connection between the flap carrier and the base body advantageously provides a snap-in lug and a snap-in lug receptacle, whereby the snap-in lug is inserted into the snap-in lug receptacle and snaps into place to attach the flap to the base body.
  • the locking lug receptacle is advantageously formed as a hole, particularly preferably as a through-hole, in the base body of the buckle component. In these embodiments, the locking lug is then located on the flap support.
  • the locking lug receptacle is formed on the flap support and the locking lug is formed on the base body of the buckle component.
  • the swivel joint can also be designed as a foil hinge or something similar.
  • Both the buckle component and the flap and flap support can be made of a wide variety of materials.
  • the buckle component, and in particular the base body and the clamping bar, are preferably made of metal, such as aluminum, aluminum alloy, or stainless steel. Of course, these components could also be made of plastic or ceramic.
  • the flap and flap support are preferably made of plastic. Alternatively, it would also be conceivable to construct the flap and flap support from metal, particularly from resilient metal.
  • the respective buckle component 1 or 2 according to the invention is part of a buckle or belt buckle, in that the buckle component 1 or 2 according to the invention can be connected to a counter-buckle component 25 to form a buckle.
  • This connection of the buckle components with the counter-buckle components is known per se and can be implemented in the implementation of the invention in a wide variety of embodiments according to the prior art. It is advantageous if, as in the embodiments shown here, In some embodiments, the buckle component 1 or 2 and the counter-buckle component 25 can be locked together when plugged together.
