Description
Jan. 23, 1934. J. H. McMURRAY CLASP Filed Jn. 17, 1933 Patented Jan. 23, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
This invention relates to clasps, and aims to provide novel means for use in connection with bridles, harness-straps, or the like, for securing buckles or snap hooks to bridles or harness- 5 straps, in such a way that the buckles or snap hooks will not pull out.
An important object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which may be readily and easily positioned without the use of special tools.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it
being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referring to the drawing:
Figure 1 is an elevational view of a clasp constructed in accordance with the invention, the clasp being shown as positioned on a harness blind.
Figure 2 is a sectional view taken on line 2 2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the clasp showing the same prior to positioning.
Referring to the drawing in detail, the clasp comprises a wide body portion 5, which is curved to conform to the shape of the folded end of a strap, folded to provide means for securing a buckle, or snap hook thereto.
As shown, the body portion is formed with an elongated cut out portion 6, defining an opening through which the tongue 7', of the buckle secured by the device, extends. Formed integral with the body portion are arms 7 and 8 respectively, the arm 8 being longer than the arm 7. The arms 7 and 8 are provided with prongs 9, which extend inwardly at right angles to the arms 50 and because the arm 8 is longer than the arm 7, the prongs will not engage or contact with each other, when the arms are forced inwardly to their active or securing positions.
Openings l0 are formed in the arms 7 and 8, the 65 openings being arranged so that they align, for the reception of the rivet or similar securing pin indicated at 11. y
From the foregoing it will be seen that due to the construction shown and described, the strap, which is supplied With a buckle or snap hook, will be securely braced, and the strain directed thereto, will be transferred from the strap, to the clasp, which is constructed of metal and capable of withstanding severe strain.
Having thus described the invention what is claimed is:
A buckle securing clasp comprising a length of metal bent intermediate its ends providing a pair of narrow arms, one of the arms being longer than the other arm, the free ends of the arms being tapered and extended inwardly providing spurs adapted to bite into a strap securing the clasp in position, the intermediate portion of the length of metal being wider than said arms and formed with a slot to accommodate the tongue of a buckle, and said arms having aligning openings, and a rivet extended through the aligning openings and strap.
