App1ication-11edFebruary 24, 19253. Serial No.620,960.
To' all whom t may concern:
Be it known that'I, MARY STARMER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newport News, yin the county of Warwick .and State of Virginia,have invented certain new and :useful :Improvements .in Belt Buckles, of .whichzthe following'is a specification.
The device of the presentv invention'is designed to provide .a quick detachable connection for use with belts or garment supporters offthe waistline type, which may be adjusted with facility, and is .adapted for use vby both men .and women.
By Ithe utilization Vof the invention the a main ybuckle and the adjusting buckle, the
latter for use in varying the length of the belt, may be quickly and securely aifixed at therespectiveeends of tliebelt, and the connecting members of the main buckle may be joined with convenience. When so joined the connecting membersare well braced and retained in position to mpresent a neat and well -groomedappeara-nce `forfthe wearer of the belt.
The invention consists in .certain novel combinations and arrangements of parts, as will be hereinafter pointed out and claimed, whereby the above conditions and desirable results are accomplished.
In the accompanying drawings I have illustrated one example of the physical embodiment of my invention wherein the arts are combined and arranged in accordance with the principles of my invention.
Figure 1 is a front view showing the two joined ends of a belt equipped with the device of my invention.
Figure 2 is a view as seen from the rear in Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the general relation of parts.
Figure/1 is a view at the inner side of the belt buckle.
Figure 5 is a view of the buckle fasteningloop` Figure 6 is a view at the inner side of the adjusting buckle.
The ends of the belt are indicated by theI letters A and B and have respective loops A and B', the ends of which are designated A, B as in Figure 3. The belt may be. of suitable material and made in accordance with various styles or designs.
The buckle plate l is preferably of metal and stamped or otherwise fashioned to shape, and may be ornamented or embellished on its front =in customary manner. At the rear-fthe plate A1 is fashioned -withia vertical, end bar 2, extending across the plate near one end, yby lmeans of which a .guide yslot 3 is provided for the end A of thebelt. At its upper and'lower -edges the buckle :plate is provided with angular flanges or braces f4, 4, vextending approximately throughout its length, and lforming topv and bottom walls 'for an enclosure at the rea-r of the plate. .lVithin the lenclosure-and at the back -of-y the plate a buckle hook 5 lis located, said hook being formed as an inte Agralf'part of a lrectangular Vframe 6 of wire,
which, by means of its top and bottom-bars is rigidly held within vtheenclosure vof the buckle plate by inturned vretaining l'flanges 7, 7. The frame is vfashioned by suitable tools and the -hook v5 Vextends within the frame,.and is alsoslightly offset from fthe inner face of the buckle plate. At the junctions -of the lhook wit-h the frame, ian upper notch l5 is provided and fa lower shoulder 6 vis fashioned, asfbest seen in Figure 4.
The ends of the wire forming the frame are secured together and one of these ends is fashioned as a prong or pin 8, which is designed to secure the end A2 of the loop A after the loop has been made around the side bar of the frame 6, as shown in Figure 3.
The fastening link for connection with the buckle hook 5 is preferably made up of a single piece of wire and fashioned with a pair of loops 9 and 10, arranged parallel, and of the required length for their respective uses. The loop 9 it will be apparent is designed to be hung or suspended on the hook 5, the upper and lower portions of the loop, respectively, engaging the notch 5 and shoulder 6 of the hook frame, as seen in Figure 2 where the loop is shown secured against displacement. 'Ihe longer loop 10 has the loop B of the belt-end B passed therethrough, and the fastening link is fashioned with a pair of arms 11 located within the loop as a brace for the loop B and to maintain the fastening link in position. These arms also afford a finger hold for the wearer of the belt when the fasten- Y ing link is being slipped over the hook 5. v
The adjusting plate 12 on the end B of the belt has at its rear a gripping jaw 13, which may be toothed, or plane at its edge for co-action with the belt in connection with the belt loop B and its end B2, and the plate forming part of the adjusting buckle is slidable on the Web of the belt at B. At the rear of the adjusting buckle an approximately rectangularloop or frame 14 is hinged by turning in the stamped out ears 15 of the jaw 13, and these ears retain the loop 15% for attachment of the loop B. The ends 16 and 17 of the loop are fashioned as prongs extending at right angles from the frame toward the inner face of the pla-te l2, and these prongs pass through the end B2 of the loop B to anchor the end of the belt Within the adjusting late. It will be apparent that the end 2 is first passed between the jaw 13 and the prongs 16 and 17, thence through the loop 10 and brought back again and the end secured Within the buckle against the inner face of the belt by the prongs 16, 17 as seen in Figure 3, after which a pull on the belt will cause the prongs to engage in the end B2, and the jaw 13, whether serrated as shown, or provided With a plain edge, will engage the belt as in Figure 3, to hold the parts in proper position.
Various changes may be. made in the device Within the scope of my claims Without departing from the spirit of my invention. As for instance the plate 13 may have a plain or smooth edge instead of the serrated edge, and one spur may be substituted for the two spurs 16 and 17 if desired.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to se` cure by Letters Patent is l. The combination in a belt-buckle having a hook-frame secured at the rear thereof, and a hook fashioned Within said frame, of a rigid prong on said frame adapted to engage and secure a belt loop, and a detachable fastening loop for coaotion With said hook.
2. The combination in a belt-buckle having upper and lower retaining flanges, of a hook-frame secured Within said flanges and an integral hook Within said frame, of a detachable fastening member having a loop for co-action with said hook at one end of the belt, and mea-ns on the hook frame for securing a belt loop.
3. The combination with a belt-buckle having a hook frame and retaining flanges on said buckle for the frame, said frame Yfashioned with a hook and complementary notch and shoulder, of a fastening member including a loop adapted to engage over said hook and co-act With said notch and shoulder.
Ll. The combination in an adjusting buckle having a rear gripping jaw for a belt, of a loop member secured Within said jaw and adapted to retain the loop end of a belt, means on the loop-member to engage said loop-end, and a detachable fastening member carried by the belt-loop.
(Mns.) MARY STARMER.
