Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 11, 1919.
Application led September 6, 1918. Serial No. 252,899.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DAVID N. BISHOP, a citizen of the United States, residing at Towanda, in the county of Butler, State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Buckles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The invention relates to a buckle and more particularly to the class of harness buckles.
The primary object of the invention is the provision of `a buckle of this character, wherein a plurality of straps arranged in super-imposed relation to each other can be fastened together, thereby holding the straps relative to each other, the buckle being particularly adapted for use on harness and is of novel construction to avoid `any possibility of injury to the animal when the harness is worn.
Anothery object of the invention is the provision of a buckle of this character, wherein the fastening tongue is of novel form to permit the engagement of a plurality of straps to hold the buckle in place upon the same and also to firmly and securely fasten the straps, the buckle being neat and attractive in appearance.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a buckle vof this character which is extremely simple in construction, thoroughly reliable and efhcient in its purpose, strong, durable and inexpensive to manufacture.
With these and other objects in view, the
invention consists in the features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and pointed out in the claims hereunto printed.
In the accompanying drawing Figure 1,.is a perspective view of a pair of straps showing the buckle constructed in toward the under side of the buckle with the straps removed.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views in the drawing.
Referring to the drawing in detail the buckle comprises a main base frame 5 which is open throughout the central portion thereof, and this frame is preferably made from metal of the required size and shape having integral with one side thereof a snap fastener 6, while covering this frame 5 is an upwardly arched or bulged top plate or covering section 7, preferably made from metal, the free edge of the plate ort section being fastened to the frame in any suitable manner along opposite longitudinal sides thereof while the oppositey ends of the top plate or section 7 are free from the frame and form end openings 8 for the reception of the length of straps 9 which are passed through the openings 8 to overlie the frame 5 and underlie the top plate or section 7 of the buckle.
Pivotally or otherwise swingingly connected to the frame 5 for swinging movement is a buckle tine or fastening prong .9, the point of pivot or swinging connection of the latter being opposite the snap fastener 6 and the free end of this prong or tine is adapted to be engaged in said snap fastener 6 for the securing of the strap 9 in the buckle.
Integrally formed with the tine or prong 9 medially thereof is a nib or finger l0 which is adapted to be inserted in suitable holes in the straps 9 when passed through, the buckle between the frame 5 and the top plate or section 7 so as to hold the straps engaged therein and firmly fastened.
The snap fastener 6 on the frame 5 is so positioned so as not to protrude beyond the said frame and thereby injure the animal when connecting the straps 9 of the harness.
The buckle can be readily opened for the adjustment of the straps 9 or their removal from the same, and also the straps can be fastened within the buckle with despatch and firmly secured when the said buckle is in use.
The finger or nib 10 on the tine or prong 9 prevents the possibility of the slipping of either or both of the straps in the buckle when the same is in use.
From the foregoing it is thought that the construction and manner of use of the buckle Will be clearly understood and therefore a more extended explanation has been omitted.
It is of course to be understood that changes, variations and modifications may be made such as come properly Within the scope of the appended claim, Without departing from the spirit of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantages.
Vhat is claimed is In a buckle, a frame, a cover plate on said frame having end openings for the passage of -straps therethrough, a fastening tine swingingly connected to the frame and adapted to bridge the same, a nib on said tine being engaged With the straps When passed through the openings in the cover plate, and snap fastening means on the E. E. HANES, H. CHASE.
Copies of this patent may be. obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Gcmmissioner of Patents, Washington, D. C.
