1 Claim. 1
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in apparel belts and, more particularly, to an improved ladys waist encircling belt.
In belts having buckle-type fasteners, it is customary to support the buckles in separate strips or the like fastened to the band of the belt by stitching or other fastening members thereby necessitating additional material and labor. It
is a principal object of the present invention to.
provide a belt having a buckle-type fastener with improved means for securing the buckle to the band of the belt.
Another object of the invention is to provide a beltor waistband which is sufficiently wide to serve as a brace and is adjustable to fit the waist of the wearer.
A further object of the invention is to provide a ladys waist belt which is comfortable, durable and attractive.
It is further proposed to provide a ladys belt which is simple and which may be manufactured and sold at a reasonabl cost.
For further comprehension of the invention, and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, and to the appended claim in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
In the accompanying drawings forming a material part of this disclosure:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of an apparel belt embodying one form of my invention, the belt being shown in open position.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged horizontal sectional view taken on the plane of the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary rear elevational view of the belt.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged sectional view showing a step in the formation of the tongue.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged fragmentary front elevational View of the belt.
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary perspective view showing a modified form of the invention.
Fig. 7 is a perspective view of a belt embodying another modified form of the invention, showing the belt in closed position.
Fig. 8 is a fragmentary rear elevational view of the belt.
Fig. 9 is a fragmentary front perspective view, parts being omitted.
Fig. 10 is a fragmentary front perspective view of a. belt embodying still another modified form of the invention, the belt being shown in closed position.
Fig. 11 is a reduced fragmentary front per- 2 spective view of the belt of Fig. 10 in open position.
Fig. 12 is a rear perspective View of one end of the belt.
Referring in detail to Figs. 1 to 5, inclusive, the belt herein shown comprises a wide band it of leather or other suitable material. Adjacent one end Ii, the material of the band is cut out by means of dies or the like so as to form a pair of tongues I2, one of which is shown in Fig. 4, in section, before being shaped to loop formation. Each tongue has a central slot 13 and end holes l4 and It. The tongue i2 is inserted through a metal buckle i6 and bent upon itself to form a loop H. A rivet i8 is passed through the aligned end holes it and it to secure the buckle in the loop.
A similar pair of tongues l9 are out out of the material of the band remote from the other end 20 thereof and are formed with central slots 2! and end holes 22 and 23. Each tongue I9 is inserted through a buckle 2d and bent upon itself to form a loop 25. A rivet 28 passing through the aligned end holes 22 and 23 secures the buckle in the loop. Th loops, with their buckles, on the ends of the belt, are disposed in alignment longitudinally of the belt.
A pair of separate perforated straps 2? are shown laced through and secured to the buckles [6 on the end i I of the belt. The other free ends of the straps are adapted to be laced through and secured to the buckles 2d on the other end 2c of the belt for securing the belt on the wearer.
By forming the loops integral with the material of the band, the necessity for separate strips for forming such loops is avoided as well as stitching or other fastening members for securing the separate strips to the band.
In the modification of the invention shown in Fig. 6, a pair of spaced loops 28 are cut in the end I i of the band H! between said end and the cut out portions which form the tongues [2. A similar pair of loops 29 are cut in the end 29 between said end and the cut out portions forming the tongues H3. The separate straps 2'! are laced through the loops 28 and 29 and through the buckles l5 and 2 5 which arrangement makes for a tighter joint between the ends of the band and furthermore enhances the appearance of the belt.
In all other respects, the form of invention shown in Fig. 6 is similar to the form shown in Fig. 1 and similar reference numerals are used to indicate similar parts.
Fig. 7 illustrates a further modification of the invention including a band In this form, the tongues I2" and I9" and supported buckles l6 and 24" are constructed the same as the tongues l2 and I9 and buckles l6 and 24 of Fig. 1, but only a single tongue with buckle is provided in each end, midway its top and bottom edges.
A single strap, with an oval-shaped body 30 is provided with narrow, perforated strap extensions 3| laced through and fastened to the buckles l6 and 24". The oval-shaped body is substantially the same width as the band providing a support at the front of the belt. The configuration of the body 30 of the strap enhances the appearance of the belt and may be adorned with any decorative emblem or the like desired.
In all other respects, the belt shown in Fig. 7 is similar to the form of belt shown in Fig. 1 and similar reference numerals are used to indicate similar parts.
In still another modified form of belt shown in Fig. 10, the band IO' is formed with an integral, elongated, narrow, perforated extension 32 on its end 20". The other end H of the belt is provided with a loop 33. The loop encircles the extreme end of the band and is secured thereto by staples 34. Remote from the end 29 ofthe band, the tongue I9' is cut out of the material of the band, at a point above its center, for supporting the buckle 24". In this form, the wide portion of the band is adapted to completely encircle the waist of the wearer and. the perforated strap extension provides the necessary adjustment around the waist.
In all other respects, the form of belt shown in Fig. 10 is similar to the form shown in Fig. 1
4 and similar reference numerals are used to indicate similar parts.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred embodiments of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise constructions herein disclosed and the right is reserved to all changes and modifications coming within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is:
A belt comprising a single wide band of leather adapted to completely encircle the Waist and having a pair of buckle-supporting looped tongues outstruck from the material of the band spaced from one end thereof, the individual tongues of the pair being aligned transversely of the band, a pair of integral buckle-supporting looped tongues outstruck from the material of the band spaced from the other end thereof, the band being provided With integral loops aligned with the outstruck looped tongues and disposed between the pairs of tongues and the ends of the band, a buckle supported in each looped tongue, and a pair of discrete detachable narrow straps laced through the loops and the buckles for connecting the ends of the band and for fastening the belt on a wearer.
