Description
Aug. 7, 1934. c. ROSENBLUM BUCKLE Filed Sept. 9, 1933 ATTORNEY5 Patented Aug. 7, 1934 v 1,969,582 BUCKLE Application September 9, 1933, Serial No. 688,781 2 Claims. (Cl. 24-182) This invention relates to buckles and is concerned more particularly with a novel belt buckle provided with clamping means by which it can be attached to one end of a belt and having a loop through which the free end of the belt may be passed and thereby held in place. Belt buckles as ordinarily made have a loop and tongue or other similar means for holding the belt at selected points, and the free end of the belt beyond its point of engagement with the buckle is slipped through one or more loops mounted on the belt itself. In the new buckle, one such loop is formed as an integral part of the buckle, the loop being made preferably of the same material as the buckle, for example, metal. This loop is formed of a strip which is attached to the buckle by portions of the strip which pass through openings in the buckle and. these portions of the strip lie against the under surface of the buckle and are so constructed and positioned that they cooperate with the clamping means by which the buckle is attached to the belt. The portions referred to thus perform a double function and in the new buckle the loop 1 is held firmly in place and the clamping means for the belt are of increased effectiveness.
For a better understanding of the invention, reference may be had to the accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 is a view of the new buckle in longitudinal section and shown mounted on a belt;
Fig. 2 is a sectional view on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a view in longitudinal section through a part of the buckle;
Fig. 4 is a bottom plan view of the part of the buckle shown in Fig. 3, and
Fig. 5 is an end view of the parts shown in Fig. 3.
In the drawing the new buckle is illustrated as provided with the usual loop 10 and tongue 11 mounted on the loop, although other means for holding the belt may be used if desired. The remainder of the buckle comprises a plate 12 which terminates at one end in spaced portions 13 and the plate is attached to the loop by means of these portions which encircle the loop on opposite sides of the tongue and are bent around the loop as illustrated in Fig. 1. The plate is iprovided with depending ears or flanges '14 on opposite sides and between these flanges there is pivotally mounted a clamping member 15. This member is of L section and it is provided with a gripping edge formed with teeth 16 and has an operating tail 1'7.
Mounted on the plate of the buckle at the end opposite to the portions 13 is a strip 18, the main portion of which lies parallel to the plate. At its ends the strip is bent to provide legs 19 which have narrow terminal portions 20. rest on top of the plate and the terminal portions 20 pass through openings at the edges of the plate and are then bent to lie against the under surface of the plate as illustrated in Fig. 5. The loop is so positioned that the terminal portions 20 lie in substantial alignment with the teeth 16 of the clamping member when the latter is in operative position.
When the buckle is to be mounted on a belt 21, the clamping member is swung on its pivots so that the teeth lie substantially parallel with the under surface of the plate 12, the end of the belt is then inserted between the teeth and the under surface of the belt, and the clamping member is then swung so that the teeth approach the plate and force the belt against the plate. In the new buckle, the portions 20 of the loop provide irregularities against which the belt is forced by v the clamping member and the portions 20 cooperate with the clamping member and insure that the belt will be firmly gripped. The pressure of the belt against the portions 20 also prevents them from being bent away from the under surface of the plate and the loop is thus held firmly in position and cannot work loose or become detached from the belt.
I am aware that it has been proposed heretofore to provide belt loops on belt buckles but in those constructions with which I am familiar the loop in no way cooperates with the clamping means. Also in some buckles the loop is formed of a separate piece of metal which may readily work loose. In the new construction, the means by which the loop is attached to the buckle increases the effectiveness of the clamping means and at the same time the end of the belt is forced against the loop-holding means in such manner that the loop is held firmly in position at all times.
What I claim:
1. In a buckle, the combination of a plate having depending ears along its sides and an opening in each side of its top adjacent said ears, a bar mounted on said plate and having laterally turned ends terminating in lugs narrower than said bar, said lugs passing through said open ings and bearing against the under surface of said plate, and a clamping member mountedpivotally in said ears and having a gripping portion movable into position close to the under surface of ,The legs 6a said plate and between and in substantial alignment with said lugs across said plate.
2. A buckle which comprises a loop, a tongue mounted on the loop, a plate having spaced end portions wrapped about a portion of said loop with said tongue lying in the space between them,
said plate having depending ears at itssides and an opening through it adjacent each 'ear,,a bar having bent end'portions which'rest on' top ofsaid plate with said bar spaced therefrom,- each a CHARLES ROSENBLUM.
