HARNESS BUCKLE Filed Nov. 9, 1927 I N VEN TOR. 12L. Gar/2;
ATTORNEY.
Patented Apr. 15, 1930 UNITED STATES AMOS L. GARRIS, F GREENVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA HARNESS BUCKLE Application filed November 9, 1927, Serial No. 232,139.
The invention relates to improvements in harness buckles.
, The object of the present invention is to improve the construction of harness buckles andto provide a simple, practical and eflicient back band buckle of strong, durable and com paratively inexpensive construction adapted to permit ready adjustment of the back band and equipped with a trace carrier and rein guide arranged so as not to interfere with the adjustment of the back band.
With these and other objects in view, the
invention consists in the construction and novel arrangement of parts hereinafter de scribed and set forth in the appended claim,
it being understood that various changes in the form, proportion, and minor details of construction, within the scope of the claim, may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantages.
In the drawing: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a harness buckle constructed in accordance with this invention. 7
Fig. 2 is a vertical side view of the same, the buckle being applied to a portion of a backband.
In the accompanying drawing, in which is illustrated the preferred embodiment of the invention, the back band buckle comprises in its construction a metal plate 1 preferably tapered from opposite sides of the center, as shown, to provide a central depending portion and having a horizontal upper edge eX- tending from opposite sides of a central vertical lug 2. The metal plate, which is de-r signed to be of a length slightly in excess of the width of a back band 3, is provided with a longitudinal slot 4 arranged in parallelism with and spaced from the upper edge of the plate 1 and adapted to receive a loop 5 of the back band. The back band, which is designed to be constructed of webbing or other suitable material, is folded transversely to form the loop 5, which is passed through the slot 4 and which is secured to the plate 1 by means of a pin or core 6 which distends the loop to a width greater than that of the slot and securely fastens the back band buckle to the back band. The friction of the back band against the pin will firmly retain the latter in the loop, so that there is no liability of the'pin accidentally working out of the loop 5 of the back band. i t
The back band buckleis equipped with a lower trace carrier loop 7 and an upper rein guide loop 8 formed by a strip 9 of metal having its terminal portions doubled or bentrearwardly to form the said loops 7 and 8. The lower portion of the strip is bent backwardly and upwardly, and the terminal 10 of the said strip is secured to the lower portion of the plate below and in spaced relation with the slot, by means of a rivet 11 or other suitable fastening means. The lower loop is substantially oblong, and the upper loop is rounded and is secured to the lug 2 by means of a pin or rivet 12 which connects the sides of the upper loop. The pin or rivet 12 pierces the sides of the upper loop and is headed at its ends, and it forms a spindle on which is mounted a roller 13 adapted to support a rein, which may consist of a rope, strap or the like, and which will slide freely through therein guide and will be supported by the rein guide with a minimum amount of friction. The trace is supported by the trace carrier, and the metal strip is extended outwardly at a point below the slot to provide ample space for the adjustment of the back band and also to permit a trace to be readily passed through the buckle and introduced into the lower loop or trace carrier. The terminals of the metal strip which forms the rein guide and the trace carrier are located above andbelow the slot in spaced relation with the same, and the point of attachment of the plate to the back band is substantially centrally of the harness buckle, the
What I claim is: i A back band buckle comprising a substantially oblong plate provided at the center of its upper edge with an upwardly projecting lug and having a long narrow longitudinal slot spaced from the upper edge adapted to receive a looped portion of a back band to permit the same to be secured to the plate by a pin, a narrow continuous metal strip arranged vertically and secured at one end to the said lug above the slot and at its other end to the plate below the slot and doubled to form upper and lower loops which extend above and below the plate, the latter connecting the terminals of the strip and closing the said loops and extending a suflicient dism tance in advance and in rear of the strip to accommodate wide back bands, the lower loop being narrower than the upper loop and adapted to receive a trace and prevent'the same from twisting, the'upper loop being of 15 greater width than the lower loop and formmg a rein guide, and means extending across the upper loop to support the reins and connecting the sides of the upper loop and constituting the fastening means for securing go the strip to the lug.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
AMOS L. GARRIS.
