Definitions

  • a strap device formed (1) of an insert provided with a head portion and (2) of a slotted receiving portion, said head lockingly engages said receiving portion when introduced thereinto; an elastically deformable reinforcing inlay extending along the periphery of said head portion.
  • This invention relates to an improved removable strap member that may be used as a carrier, suspension means or fastener.
  • An object of the invention is to provide an improved strap and base structure that permits easy attachment and detachment of the strap member.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide an improved strap device that is more stable and more durable than devices of this type known heretofore.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide an improved strap and base construction wherein the strap ends, while allowed a certain play in the base, cannot be accidentally separated therefrom.
  • the inventive structure comprises a mounting base having receiving means such as a slot, and a strap member having integral end portions functioning as inserts, the entire strap member, or at least its said inserts, being reinforced with elastically deformable stiffening inlays.
  • FIG. 1 is an isometric view of an embodiment depicting an insert during attachment thereof to the mounting base
  • FIG. 2 is a plan view of another embodiment showing a mounting base and an insert separated from one another;
  • FIG. 3 is a plan view similar to FIG. 2 showing a further embodiment
  • FIG. 4 is a plan view of another embodiment relating to the mounting base
  • FIG. 5 is an isometric view of still another embodiment relating to the mounting base
  • FIG. 6 is a plan view illustrating possible exemplary use of the inventive device.
  • FIG. 7 is a plan view of an adjustable embodiment.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown a mounting base 1 provided with a slot 2 and adapted to be secured to an article (not shown) e.g. by means of stitches extending through circumferential apertures 3.
  • a fiat insert 4 having a generally wedge-shaped terminal head portion 5.
  • the band-shaped mid-portion of insert 4 may also carry transversely extending inlays 6 (one shown).
  • FIG. 1 depicts the relative position of the base 1 and insert 4 during the introduction of the latter into the former.
  • the insert 4 is released, whereupon it assumes the position shown by broken lines and identified by an arrow. It is readily seen that the widest part of head 5 has larger dimensions than the distance between the two ends of slot 2. This distance constitutes the effective length of the slot. Insert 4 is thus firmly and securely maintained in base 1 due to the stiffening inlays 6; the resiliency of which, however, permits a certain desirable freedom of motion of the insert.
  • the insert 4 When the strap is to be detached from the article, the insert 4 is again bent lengthwise against its own resiliency and that of inlays 6, whereupon it may be withdrawn from the slot 2 and thus entirely separated from the base 1.
  • its head portion 5 In order to facilitate the lengthwise bending of insert 4, its head portion 5 may be provided with an axially extending groove 5'.
  • FIG. 2 comprises a base 1a secured to an article (not shown) by means of buttons 7 (one shown).
  • FIG. 3 illustrates an embodiment wherein the base 1b is provided with a triangularly cut slot 2b and the insert 4b has a triangular head portion 5b.
  • the embodiment depicted in FIG. 4 comprises a base 10 which, instead of a slot, is provided with an eye 8 for receiving head portion 50.
  • FIG. 5 illustrates a mounting base comprising an upper half It! and a lower half 1d disposed on either side of a fabric and secured together by means of pins or rivets 9.
  • the securing means of the base to an article is not limited to the examples shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 4 and 5. It may also be attached by welding, vulcanizing or any other suitable means.
  • FIG. 6 illustrates an entire strap attached to an apparel and bearing the owners name.
  • FIG. 7 shows a mounting base provided with a series of slots 2a, 2a, 2a", etc. for adjustably receiving insert 4a.
  • the inlay extending along the periphery of the head portions is discontinued for a short distance on both sides of the longitudinal axis of the strap. This feature tends to facilitate the deformation of the strap along its length for insertion into, or removal from the cooperating slots.
  • the inventive device may be used for a large variety of purposes. It may serve as a hanger or fastener for apparel, as a carrier handle for containers, trunks, packages, brief cases or as a suspension means for suspenders, etc.
  • the present device may be made of a large variety of materials such as synthetic plastic (e.g. nylon, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polyesters or the like), rubber, leather, fabric, metal etc.
  • synthetic plastic e.g. nylon, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polyesters or the like
  • rubber e.g. nylon, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polyesters or the like
  • leather e.g., leather, fabric, metal etc.
