Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EDWARD D. BEAN, OF CHELSEA, MASSACHUSETTS.
TAKE-UP FOR WAIST-BELTS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 241,782, dated May 24, 1881.
Application filed April 4, 1881. (ModeL) To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD D. BEAN, of Chelsea, of the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Take-Ups for WaistBelts; and I do hereby declare the same to be described in the following specification and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a part of a waist-belt with my new or improved take-up applied to it. Fig. 2 is a top view, Fig. 3 a bottom view, Fig. 4 a longitudinal section, Fig. 5 an end view, and Fig. 6 a transverse section, of the take-up.
The nature of the invention is defined in the claim hereinafter presented.
In Fig. 1 of the drawings, the waist-belt portion is shown at A, the take-up at B, the tongue of the clasp at (J, and the annular slide at D.
The take-up is fastened to the waist-belt at one end of the latter. From the part to which it is secured the waist-belt is carried through the slide D, thence through the eye ofthc clasptongue, thence back through the slide D, and
finally through the take-up, such belt, nearits other end, being secured to the other part of the clasp.
The take-up consists of a slide, a, to encompass the belt transversely, such slide being provided at its front end with a semi-elliptical projection or thumb-piece, b, which extends from the slide in manner as shown and rests against the inner face of the belt. The slide is tapering transversely, as represented in Fig. 4, and has pivoted to it a flat arm, 0, which is provided at its opposite ends with two lips, 01 d, having serrations or teeth 0 extending down from each at a right angle to it. lips are, with the arm, to secure the take-up to the belt at one end of the latter, the belt being first introduced between the arm and the lips, (which, in such case, are sufficiently raised for the purpose,) and the latter subsequently forced down upon thebelt, so as to bear upon it and cause the teeth to enter it. The belt thus becomes tightly clasped by the arm and lips and held by the teeth from being drawn out from between them. The arm is provided with an eccentric or fastening cam, f, arranged These toothed with it as represented. On moving the arm forward the part of the belt that is between the slide a and the cam may be firmly clamped to the take-up.
When the belt is around the body of a person the arm and the thumb bearing-piece are next the body, in which case, to loosen the hold of the take-up on the belt, the wearer should insert the thumb of his left hand between his body and the thumb-piece and should grasp the latter and the belt firmly with his thumb and forefinger. Next, he should insert the fingers of his right hand between the arm'and the next adjacent part of the belt in front of such arm, and, seizing the arm between the thumb and fingers of his said hand, he should force or turn the arm backward relatively to the slide, so as to relieve the belt from being clamped by the cam or eccentric. He next can move the take-up on the belt either toward or away from the clasp, as occasion may require, which being done he is to turn the arm forward, so
as to clasp the take-up to the belt.
With the described take-up applied to a belt in manner as explained little of the take-up projects outside of the belt, themain portions being between the belt and the body of the wearer. In consequence thereof the arm of the take-up will, by the said body and the belt, be held in its clamping position and cannot be readily moved backward, so as to loosen the belt, by a person on seizing the wearer by the belt. Furthermore, the described clamping takeup avoids the necessity of making holes in the belt to receive the tongue of a common buckle when such buckle is used as a take-up.
What I claim as my invention is as follows,
EDWARD D. BEAN.
