' The invention relates to buckles for supporting garments and more particularly to a fastening device of this character for use in connection with the straps. of garments such as overalls and thelike.
The particular construction of the buckle involves a frame with a spring slide associated therewith and one of the principal ob jects of this invention is to provide means for detachably connecting this spring slide to the frame so as to facilitate the manufacture and assembly of the device. As a consequence of this the cost of production and of assembling is materially lessened and the device rendered more practical and commercially satisfactory,
Various other objects, advantages I and novel details of construction will be made more, apparent as this description proceeds especially when considered in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure 1 is a perspective view of a buckle as seen from the rear.
Figure 2 is a similar view with a strap of a garment associated therewith,
Figure 3 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view through the buckle.
Figure 4 is aseparated perwective view of the spring slide, and
Figure 5 is a view showing the invention used in connection with the different form of buckle.
Referring now particularly to Figures 1 to l of the drawings, it will be noted that there is illustrated a buckle comprising a main frame portion 10 having formed preferably integral therewith a button loop 11.. However, as suggested in Figure 5, the invention may be equally advantageously associated with a buckle 10 in which the button loop 11 is formed as a separate member.
Associated with the frame 10 is a slide 12 here indicated as a spring slide, over and through which the strap S of the garment is looped for adjustably securing the buckle thereto.
The present invention contemplates means for detachably connecting the slide 12 to the frame 10 and to this end the slide is provided with hooked end portions 13 and 14. which are adapted to detachahly and slidably on gage the ends oil the frame 10 in a manner most clearly illustrated in l igurc 17 Considering the specific constriuttion oi the slide 12, it will be noted that it may be conveniently formed of a. single length of material such as wire bent into a substantial U- shape and having the closed end of the U- shape bent to provide the hooked portion 13, while each of the tree ends are bent to form the hooked portion 14. The hooked portions 13 and 14 are so formed that the intermediate leg portions 15 and 1(5 of the slide lie substantially intermediate the plane of the hooked end portions or in other words, in a plane substantially coincident with the axes of the hooked end portions 13 and 14;. In this manner the accidental separation of the detachable slide from the frame 10 after assembly is prevented as the legs 15 and 16 of the slide lie in the same plane as the iongitudinal sides of the frame 10. In practice the strap S is adapted to be passed between the legs 15 and 16 of the slide 1:2 and thence over the upper leg 15 and for this purpose this leg is formed with a laterally off-set portion 17 for clamping engagement with the strap in cooperation with the other leg While the slide 12-may be assembled with the frame 10 in any one of several different ways, I have found that one convenient man-- ner of assembly consists in first engaging the hooked ends 14 of the slide with one end of the-frame 10,- with the slide in an angular position but in a plane substantially parallel to the plane oi? the frame 10. Thus,.the hooked end 13 is disposed adyacent the corner ofthe frame 10 so that this hooked end may be slid axially of the end ol the frame 10 and into engagement therewith as shown in Figure 1.. During this movement it is necessary, however, to slightly tiesthe legs 15 and 16 of the slide so that they will'clear the adjacent longitudinal side of the frame 10. Vthei'i, however, the slide 12 has been moved to a position substantially as illustrated in Figure l, the logs l5 and 16 may be permitted to'spring back to their normal position where accidental disengagement of the parts is prevented in the manner SLEOI'B: said.
The manner of connecting the slide 12 shown in Figure 5 with the frame 10 is identical with that just described so that no detailed description is necessary.
While the slide 12 has been shown and described as a spring slide substantially similar in construction to that shown and claimed in my prior Patent No. Il.,l4 l,8:')3 dated Feb. 13, 1923, still the principles of this invention are applicable and may be too ilo
Rosetta utilized with facility in connection with a slide or other cooperating element of a buckle of this character, wherein the slide member is not resilient as in the illustrated construction. Therefore, it should be understood that reservation is made to make such changes in the detailsof construction as may come within the purview of the ac companying claims.
What I claim as my invention is:
1. In a buckle of the class described, a frame member and a spring slide connected thereto, the said, slide comprising a single length of material bent to form a U-shaped member, the closed end of the U-shaped member being bent to form a hook detachabl engageable with the frame member an the open end of the U-shaped member being bent to form a pair of hooks separate ly detachably engageable with the frame member. 1
'2. In a buckle of the class described, a frame member, and a U-shaped spring slide connected thereto, the said slide having a bod portion lying throughout its length in t e plane of the frame, and end portions lefg 0 set clamping portion arranged substantially in the )lane of the frame.
4. In a buc le of the character described, a frame, a separate slide adapted for sliding engagement on the said friiine, the said slide including leg portions joined to GflCllnOthLl at one end and s'pacedapart at their opposite ends, the said le portipns beim spaced longitudinally of t e said frame 1111C being ieldably held in spaced relation to each 0t er, the said end ortions of the slide being bent toward eac other and being adapted for detachable snap-on engagement with the said frame.
In testimony whereof I atfix m si nature.
