Application filed January 19, 1926. Serial. No. 82,233.
-My invention relates to belts and more particularly to belts for clothing or wearing apparel for men, women, and children;- and the object is to provide a simple belt and 5 simple means for attaching the ends of the belt together and for holding the parts in the position desired and which will prevent any slipping of the lapped ends on each other, and to provide simple retaining 1 devices which are easily and quickly adjusted when the ends of the belt have been lapped to the proper and required positions and which can'be quickly removed. Another object is to "provide a belt and fastening devices therefor which can be manufactured at small cost. Another object is to provide belts which require no changes in the, styles in use and to make use of standard forms of belts. Other objects and advantages will be iully explained in the following description and-the invention will be more particularly" pointed out in the claims.
Reference is had to the accompanying drawings which form a 1 application. Fig; 1 is a perspective view of the com plete belt with the improvements applied thereto.
theibuckle and accompanying parts.
Fig. 3 is a broken plan view on an enlarged scale, showing a variation.
Fig. 4 is a broken front view of the belt illustrating the application of the buckle and other connecting parts. I
Fig. 5 and each of the other figures including Fig. 9 are broken views illustrating the rubber'wvhich constitutes a friction means.
Similar characters of reference are used to indicate the same parts throughout the several views.
The belt 1 may be of leather, cloth, or other suitable material. The belt 1 has a free end 2 and an attaching end 3. The belt is provided with a buckle 4 and this buckle consists of a single piece of spring, metal and it is formed of a body member 5 with the edges curved and the extreme edges 7 of the metal engage the rear or inner side of the lapped end 6. The sheet metal is bent at both edges and the bends 9 are of suficient extent to space the members 7 part of this i Fig. 2 is anfenlar'ged detail perspective view, illustrating the manner of applying .f he lt In order to make the parts 2 and 3 less.
enough from part 5 to receive thefree end 2 attach ng end 3, and the lapped member The inner and outer edges of the buckle may be parallel as shown in Fig. 2, but to secure a wedging' effect, the end ,8 is made narrower than the end 10, as shown in Figs.
1 and 3. Thelapped member 6 is taper-ed to arfeather edge 11 which is riveted to the attaching end 3 by a rivet 18. A loopv 12 is riveted to the attaching end 3 at the terminal or bend of the attaching end which commences the lapped end'G. The loop 12 is large enough to receive the free end 2 of the belt. Another loop 14 is loosely mounted on the attaching end 3 of the belt. This loop is for holding tl e free end 2 in line with theattaching end 3 in actual service or wear. In order to prevent displacement of the loop 14 a flexible strip 15 is attached to the loop 14 and caught in between the attachingend 3 and the feather edge 11 and held there by the rivet 13. The effect of the tapering form of the buckle makes or causes a wedging of the buckle on the free end 2 and the attaching end 3 and the taper ing end 6.. The buckle may have the lapped members 7 wider or narrower. If the members 7 are wider, they will be more easily sprung outwardly to let the parts 2 and 3 of the belt move on each other'in case there should be rough places or thicker places in liable to slip on each other or to make the buckle hold more firmly, rubber or other pads 16 are attached to the member 3 so that when the two parts 2 and 3 are clamped together by the tapering form of the buckle, therubber detents 16 will bear against the free end 2 and hold the belt ends securely at whatever point of adjustment they may be located.
The buckle 4 may be made of other material than metal, as of fibre, hard rubber, leather, or other suitable material. The exterior of the buckle may be made as ornamental as may be desired. See Fig. 4. The pads or detents 16 may be varied in form as shown in the Figs. 5 to 9 inclusive. The free end 2 of the belt may be corrugated on the inside, as shown in Fig. 2, to make the belt hold better as it bears against the end 3. The edges of the buckle may be milled or made rough as shown in Figs. 1 and 3 so that the buckle may be more easily handled;
In the variation shown in Fig. 3, the lapped member 6 is dispensed with and a wedge member 17 is placed on the outside of the free end 2 and detachably connected to the loop 12. The wedge member 17 extends through the buckle and tapers towards the-loop l-l and is permanently attached to the loop 1 Additional pads 18 are placed between the wedge 17 and the free end 2, the pads 18 being attached to the inside of the wedge 17.
One of the advantages of the loop 1% being movable on the attaching end of the belt is that the belt and the buckle are easily and readily assembled or taken apart. To remove the buckle, first draw the belt entirely out of the loop 1% and then slip the buckle off of the belt. To assemble the belt and buckle, first run the belt through the buckle and then through the loop 14:.
\Vhat I claim is,-
l. The combination of a belt and fastening means therefor comprising a flexible strip folded at one end, a loop secured to said strip at the folded end thereof, the other end of said strip being run through said loop and laid on said folded end member, and a buckle consisting of a sheet of stiff material and bent about both of said end members and tapering from one end to the other for clamping said members fixedly on each other.
2. The combination of a flexible belt member having an attaching end and a free end and fastening means therefor, said attaching end being folded near the end thereof and the folded member being tapered towards its end, a loop attached to said attaching end at the bend thereof, said free end being run through said loop and lapped on the other end, and a buckle consisting of a sheet of material bearing on said free end and having the edges bent and lapped on the lapped member of said attaching end and tapering from one end to the other to clamp said free end and attaching end together.
3. The combination of a flexible belt member having a free end member and an attaching end member and friction pads interposed between said end members, and an open clamp bent about the upper and lower edges of said end members and tapering from one end to theother for increasing the clamping effect as tension comes on the belt member.
4. The combination of a flexible belt member having a free end member and an attaching end member, friction pads interposed between said end members when lapped past each other, one guide loop fixed on said attaching end member and one guide loop movably mounted on said attaching end member for said free end member, friction means interposed between said end members, and a fastening member bent about said end members for clamping said end members on said friction means.
5. The combination of a flexible belt member having a free end member and an attaching end member, a lapped member formed on said attaching member and tapering to a feather edge, said free end member being lapped on said attaching member, and a fastening member bent about said end members and lapped member and tapering from one end to the other for clamping all of said members together when strain comes on the belt member.
In testimony whereof, I set my hand, this 23rd day of December, 1925.
ULYSSES H. HILL.
