G. HAWIE BUCKLE Filed Nov. 28. i922 INVENTO gw M ATTORNEYS.
lfatented l.
EFJNIE, G1 BRIDGEPDRT, CONNECTICUT.
Application filed November 28, 1922.
To to whom may concern:
Be it known that l, GABRIEL llnwrn, a
citizen of the United States, residing Bridgeport, county of l airlield, State of Qonnecticuh have invented an Improvement in Buckles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to buckles such as are employed for suspenders, hose supporters and the like, and has for an object to provide an improved buckle which is simple in construction and may be manufactured at low cost.
It is also an object of the invention to provide an improved fastening means for securing the buckle to the Web whereby a saving in the amount of web required is effected, and the securing means is also so constructed and arranged as to facilitate the securing of the web to the buckle to decrease the cost of this operation, and pro duce one which will not require skilled labor to perform the clamping operation.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, l have devised the construction illus trated in the accompanying drawing, in which- Fig. 1 is a plan view of a conventional form of hose supporter showing my hon proved buckle applied thereto.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof with a portion of the buckle, however, being broken away, to more clearly show the construction.
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view through the buckle and web showing the clamping lever raised.
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the back or frame of the buckle.
Fig. 5 is a transverse section through the same showing the means for clamping the end of a web to the buckle in the position it occupies just before the clamping operation, and
-ldig. 6 is a similar view showing the end the web clamped to the buckle.
In the drawing 10 represents a portion of a conventional garment to which is secured in any suitable manner a hose supp iter comprising an elastic web 11, clasp, 12 and means for adjusting the length of the supporter comprising my improved buckle. 'lhis buckle comprises a back or frame 13 preferably of sheet metal and having bent laterally from the opposite endsthereofsuitable substantially triangular wings l l having openings 15 therein to receive the pivot Serial No. 803,772.
Struck from the body of the back or frame, preferably rearwardly or in the opposite direction from the wings ll, are one more clamping lugs 21, and in the form shown these lugs are bent backwardly and upwardly as indicated in Figs. 4c, 5 and 6. l i hen the buckle is formed and before it is secured to the web this lug or lugs are inclined outwardly from the back of the frame, as indicated in Fig. 5, to allow for easy insertion for the end 22 of the Web. In applying the buckle to the web the free end 22 is inserted between the frame and the lugs 21, as indicated in Fig. 5, and is then placed in a suitable press whereby this clamping lug or lugs are bent downwardly against the web securely clamping the same against the body or frame, as shown in Fig. 6. ln order to form a more reliable and stronger connection between the end of the web and the buckle the clamping lugs 21 are provided with any desired number of perforations or openings 23 therethrough. Thus when the lugs are bent downwardly to clamp the web between the same and the frame a portion of the web will be forced into these openings, as shown at 24 in Fig. 6, and theedges of these openings will grip the surface of the web and securely hold the same.
After the end of the web is clamped to the buckle the web is folded over the free edge of the lugs 21 and extends downwardly over the back of the frame, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, covering the same and forming a socalled rustless buckle, as there is no exposed metal surface on the back thereof to come in contact with the body of the wearer. The 'web, after being looped through the clasp, extends over the front of the frame )QIlGlllll the clamping lever 17 and may be clamped by the tongue 19 and teeth 20 against the front surface of this frame. It will be seen from an inspection of Figs. 2 and 3 that there is but a single thickness of web clamped between the tongue and frame. For this reason itwill be apparent that the wings 14 may be lower giving a thinner buckle, and besides the single thickness of web is clamped between two metal surfaces making a better grip. The lower or thinner buckle, or rather closer location of the pivot for the lever to the frame, gives a better leverage producing abetter holding buckle, and also one that may be more easily operatecl.
It will also be apparent the buckle is very simple in construction and will be much easier to manufacture than most buckles, and'so can be manufactured at lower cost. Also because of the peculiar construction and arrangement of the clamping lugs for securing the end of the web to the buckle, it requires less web, thus giving a material saving in the amount of web used which is a Veryimportant item. Further as these clamping lugs project out the back of the frame,'the insertion of the end of the web between the same and the frame for the clamping operation does not require threading through the buckle in any way, nor is this operation, interfered with by the clamping lever 17. This also decreases the cost or manufacture, as the buckles may be assembled on the web at a greater speed and do not require skilled labor as is the case with some buckles.
magma it will still further oe apparent that l seess buckle which requires a compa atively small amount of web and with a si.-gle thickness between the frame and the clamping lever to be clamped thereby, giving a better holding effect and a thinner buckle.
Having thus set forth the nature of my invention, what I clainiis:
A buckle comprising sheet metal back or frame, clamping lever provided with a finger piece pivoted to said "frame and adapted to clamp the front reach of a web against the front of said frame, and a clamping lug struck from the frame and bent to the rear and over so that its free end extends in the opposite direction from that of the finger piece whe the lever is in web securing position, the lug being of such a length that its free end is substantially in a plane t ith the edge of the frame, and the said lug adapted to clamp the free end of the rear reach of the web against the back of the frame and allow said web to be bent over its GABRIEL HAWIE.
