Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 13, 1922.
Application filed October 5, 1921. Serial ll'o. 505,575.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that L'IIENRY Gr. STUReEs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Utica, in the county of Oneida and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Four-lVay-Strap Buckles; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the characters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this application, and represent, in
Fig. 1, a plan view of a package showing theapplication thereto of my improved four-way-strap buckle.
Fig. 2, a detached view of the buckle with the fixed end of the strap broken away.
Fig. 3, an edge view thereof.
Fig. 4, a detached view of the buckle-- frame from which the slide has been removed.
My invention relates to an improvement in a four-way-strap buckle of the class used for books, substantially rectangular packages, and bundles of kindred form, the object being to produce a simple and convenient buckle, constructed with particular reference to preventing the shirring or puckering of the strap in making a right angle turn through the buckle, and also avoiding the undue wear of the edges of the strap.
With these ends in view, my invention consists in a four-way-strap buckle having a straight equalizing-bar located at an angle of 45 to both its axes.
My invention further consists in certain details of construction as will be hereinafter described and pointed out in the claim.
In carrying out my invention, as herein shown, I employ a one-piece, sheet-metal buckle-frame having a straight equalizingbar 5 somewhat exceeding in length the width of the strap 6 and located at an angle of 45 to either the longitudinal or transverse axes of the frame, which also comprises complementary slide-bars 7 located opposite each other, a gripping-bar 8, a tie-bar 9 and an intermediate-bar or reinforce 10. All of these bars are straight, but the equalizing-bar is arranged as describedat an angle of 45 with respect to the axes of the buckle-frame. Upon the slide-bars 7 I mount a sheet-metal slide 11, the ends of which are folded back upon it so as to form tubular sockets or loops 12 e1nbracing the slide-bars 7, upon which it is free to slide toward and away from the gripping-bar 8 of the buckle-frame. The said slide has outwardly projecting teeth which co-act with the said gripping-bar to hold the free end of the strap, as shown in Fig. 1. The fixed end of the strap is folded over the tie-bar 9 and secured thereto by a rivet 13 or equivalent manner.
In the use of my improved, four-waystrap buckle, the strap 6 is passed around the package and then upward through the triangular opening 14 thereof and outward at a right angle and then around the other axis of the package, after which its free end is passed through the rectangular buckle slide-opening 15, in which position it is gripped between the teeth of the slide 11 and the gripping-bar 8. Now, no matter how great the tension employed in tightening the strap by pulling upon its free end, the strap, as it passes over the equalizingbar 5, will have the strain equalized throughout its entire width, so that it will not pucker in the slightest, whereby the neatness of the package is improved and also by avoiding the puckering or shirring of the strap, the life of the same is prolonged, inasmuch as the strain is not thrown on its edges but equally diffused throughout its width, all of the lines of strain being rendered parallel by the equalizing-bar.
The bar 10, which divides the interior space of the buckle-frame into the triangular opening 14 and the rectangular opening 15, reinforces the buckle-frame, acts as a stop for the slide 11, and facilitates the threading of the strap 6 through the opening 14 without fouling with the said slide.
I claim:
A four-way-strap buckle having a onepiece buckle-frame, comprising a tie-bar, a gripping-bar, two slide-bars, a straight equalizing-bar extending at an angle of 45 to the tie, gripping and slide-bars, and an intermediate bar or reinforce paralleling the said gripping-bar and dividing the interior space of the buckle-frarne into a triangular opening lying adjacent to the equalizingbar and a rectangular opening specification in the presence of two subscrib- 1o lying between said intermediate bar and the gripping-bar; in combination with abuckleslide mounted at its ends upon the two slidebars of the buckle, and coasting with the gripping-bar to grip the free end of the strap.
In testimony whereof, I have signed this ing witnesses.
