This invention relates to 'belt buckles 'or beltifas'tening elements and in particular to a type which adjustable to fit the body of the weanerand to prov'ide a slight adjustment or takealp durin the use thereof.
A particular 0, ject of theinvention is to provide a simplified belt buckle construction w which prevents sl p inf-of the t which prevents wearing of the e t ,atfit's ends and which renders the operation of ias'teningithebelt practically instantaneous. l e
A further particular object of the invention is togovide a belt buckle or fastenin element .w 'ch not only protects the end ot inch is neat in appearance,
s the belt but also protects the clothing of the wearer as well as giving stren th to the belt construction and preventing re ative slippage of the belt end Tolenab'le others skilled in the art to fully comprehend the underlying "features of our invention that they may embody the same in the various modifications in structure-and relat-ion contemplated, a drawing depicting a preferred form has 'beenyannexed as a .part of this disclosure and in such drawing, similar reference characters denote corresponding arts throughout all the views, of which,
igure '1 (is a view inperspective ofour improved belt buckle construction, the same bemg shown in connection with a belt.
Fi are 2 is a view in rear elevationof the belt udlrle construction shown in Figure 1,
the samebeing shown as it would appear lookini from the y n-side of the belt.
igire Bis a view in section taken on the "3 ofFigure 2 and shows the construction .of the buclfle arts and their relative relationwhen secure together.
Fi re 4'is a view showing the end ofthe Figure 5 is a view in ers plate which is adapte to end the belt illustrated in Figured, and
tive of the eyea I Figure 6 is a view inperspective of the rear side ofgthehook plate which is arranged to besecured' in any one of the openings of the opposite endof the belt fromthat shown inFi.z-e4." 7
Re rring to thedrawings in .detail, 5 indicatesa belt of the usual .flexible construction and which is made of leather or other tough material and whichfis adapted to .encompass the body of the wearer to retain trousersor other garments in position.
It has a problemfheretoiore to efi'eo secured to the tively secure the ends of ,a belt together to prevent the relative slippin thereof when the parts of the belt buckle 1 ecome worn as when the friction clasp type buckle "is used,
Pics. f
the continued gripping of the 'belt causes the same to become smooth in one portion with:
the result that it slips, not properly perform its function. I
In our invention we have overcome this objection by positively securing the ends of the belt together not only at one point .hut providin for an adjustment so that the-ends of the be t maybe moved longitudinally relatively to each other.
On one end-of the belt which, when in posi tion overlies the opposite ends and'wh'ich is designated by the numeral 6; we have provided the usual openings "7 s acedin any suit able manner to receive a 00k 8 which is formed integrally with and on the under side when in use and does of a hook plate 9, the outer face 10 of which to connecting piece 11 which is arranged atone end of the hook plate and isada ted to overlie the 'beltb, It'is of'course un erstood-that some means must be provided ior secur' the hook plate to the belt so that no bu'lge may occurin the latter and while "I have shown a solid bridge 11 joining the ends of the flanges 10, it is to be understood that the flanges 10 might .be dispensed with and lips turnedover'onany portion of the hook p ate 9"to encompass the edgesoff the beltto secure thehookplate thereto. ,Itirs quite evident that the .hook plate may be placed in any position on the end 6 of the belt and the hook18 thereof pass through an ofithe open ings Yin the belt end so that t e "hook'p'late is thereby adjusted longitudinally of the end 6 of the belt.
In order to retain the hook plate or the ends of the'belt locked together, we'ha've 0% vided on the oppositeend 12 of the jbe 1315, an eye plate 13. This eye plate is made of metal as is of course, also the "hook plate and is doubled to provide an eye portion 14 and a rear protective portion 15, the front edge thereof, or where the metal is turned, as at 16, being adapted to protect the-edge 17 of the belt end 12 to prevent that portion from frayingandto enhance the a pearance there of. The end of the belt '12 is provided with ioo a rivet opening 18 and an elongated slot portion 19, the opening 18 being arranged to coincide with the openin 20 provided in the rear edge of the eye plate 13, the eye plate being secured to the belt end through the medium of a suitable rivet like eyelet 21 which passes through the opening 20 in the eye plate and opening 18 in the belt end 12. lVhenthe eye plate 13 has been positioned as described, the eye slot or opening 22 formed in the eye portion 1st of the eye plate 13 are in alignment with the opening 19 in the belt end 12 and it will be quite evidentthat the openings 22 provide an adjustable feature by reason of the fact that the hook 8 of the hook plate 9 can be secured in either one of the eyes 22 to provide for the necessary takeup after the hook plate is positioned at the proper opening 7 in the end 6 of the belt 5.
The eye plate may be fancifully shaped as shown in Figure 5 to provide an ornamental appearance and it may be engraved or suitably decorated to enhance the appearance of the belt as a whole.
It is quite evident from inspection of Figure 3 that when the hook plate is connected to the eye plate by reason of the fact that the hook 8 is disposed within the eye plate 13, that the protective backing 15 of the eye plate will prevent the book 8 from coming into contact with the clothing of the wearer, thus providing an elfective shield and dispensing with any projection on the back of the belt which would constantly rub against the clothingat the point where the buckle was continuously used.
It is evident, therefore, that we have provideda belt'fastening means, the hook plate portion of which can be adjusted longitudinally of the end of the belt and which can then be secured in a suitable eye plate which will prevent contact of the catching means I with the clothing.
It is also evident that we have provided a fastening means which does not need continuous adjustment and which presents an ornamentalappearance and conceals the fact that a hook is used to hold both ends of the belt together. i
It is evident also, that we have provided a belt buckle of simplified construction, which does not require constant manipulation or adjustment to properly position the same in order to attain the circumferential size of the belt desired.
While we have illustrated and described our invention with some degree of particularity, we realize that in practice various alterations therein may be made. We there fore reserve the right and privilege of changing the form of the details of construction or otherwise altering the arrangement of the corelated parts without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the appended claims.
