Definitions
- ABSTRACT Rapid-release buckle for straps of a harness, for example of a parachute or other safety device.
- the buckle has locking members capable of releasing all the releasable harness straps when actuated by a first actuating device.
- a second actuating device is provided which enables only a selected number of the locking members to release a corresponding selected number of the releasable straps.
- the two actuating devices are compatible with each other.
- the present invention relates to rapid-release belt buckles employed for interconnecting the ends of the straps of a harness or other safety device provided with shoulder straps for aviators, automobilists or other users.
- Different rapid-release buckles are known to be employed for this purpose, for example the type disclosed in French Pat. No. 1,099,122 filed by the Applicant and comprising the combination of a number of fasteners or tongue members adapted to be secured to the ends of the straps that the buckle must unite in a releasable manner, and a centre device constituting a sort of latch having cavities in which the tongue members are introduced and maintained by locking members which are withdrawable, under the action of an actuating device, in a given path between a locking position and releasing position.
- the actuating device permits the simultaneous release of all the tongue .members without any selection being possible.
- an automobilist may desire to employ for driving in towns only the belt of the safety device and connect the shoulder straps only for driving on highways.
- a pilot of an aircraft may desire to detach the two shoulder straps of his harness so as to allow him more freedom of movement while he keeps the belt straps and crotch straps attached, the shoulder straps being attached only when conditions require.
- the invention provides a rapid-release buckle for straps of a harness or other safety device, of the type comprising a general actuating device acting on the whole of the locking members so as to withdraw them, wherein a partial second actuating device is provided which has an independent control and acts selectively on only some of the locking members so as to withdraw them, the two actuating devices being compatible with each other.
- the second actuating device is connected in series with the first actuating device.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view of the under side of rapidrelease buckle according to the invention in the closed position with five tongue members locked in position;
- FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken on line 2-2 of FIG.
- FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the buckle shown in FIG. 1;
- FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 1, showing a buckle according to the invention in a partially opened position in which the locking members of the two tongue mem bers corresponding to the shoulder straps of a harness having five fixing points are withdrawn, and
- FIG. 5 is a sectional view taken on line 5-5 of FIG. 4.
- the rapid-release buckle comprises a cylindrical body which is generally designated by the reference number 1 and comprises two elements 2 and 3 and a cover 4.
- the element 2 is a disc having recesses such as 5 and defines with the element 3 five cavities adapted to receive tongue members 6.
- the element 3 has a peripheral flange 7 which extends in the opposite direction to the element 2.
- the flange 7 defines a chamber closed by the cover 4 which encloses a mechanism of known type constituting a latch and a first actuating device.
- the mechanism of known type shown in detail in FIG. 3, comprises a disc 8 provided with apertures 9 in which are slidably mounted locking members 10, 10 which are biased by springs 11 into apertures 12 which correspond to the apertures 9 and are provided in the web of the element 3.
- the springs 11 bear in recesses 13. in the cover 4.
- the locking members l0, l0", 10" are retained in the disc 8 by a flange 14 and their opposite end is chamfered.
- the disc 8 has a hub 15 having two inclined ramps 16, 16 and the hub 15 has extending therethrough a spindle 17 in which is disposed a radial pin 18 the ends of which bear against the ramps 16, 16 of the hub 15.
- the hub 15 is slidably mounted in a bearing 19 formed in the web of the element 3 and the component parts are held assembled by screws 20 which extend through the elements 2 and 3 and are screwed into the cover 4 so as to prevent the disc 8 from rotating.
- a circular control means 21 having a flange 22 is secured to the spindle 17 by a screw 23.
- one of the locking members designated by the reference character 10
- This actuating device consequently releases simultaneously all the tongue members except the locking member 10 in the known manner.
- a second actuating device which has a partial action and is independent of the first actuating device and has separate control means.
- the second actuating device comprises a curved member 25 having the same radius as the disc 8 and provided with two apertures 29 which conicide with two successive apertures in the disc 8.
- the member 25 is disposed between the cover 4 and the disc 8 and between the latter and the flanges of two locking members 10'. Under the action of the springs 11, the member 25 is applied against the disc 8 but it can be withdrawn therefrom, in opposition to the ac tion of the springs 11 of the locking members 10", under the action of a thrust exerted thereon by three push-rods 30 which are slidably mounted in apertures in the disc 8 and in corresponding apertures in the element 3 and apertures 31 in the element 2 beyond which they extend (FIG. 3).
- the push-rods 30 constitute cam follower means and are shifted by a circular cam 32 mounted to be freely rotative on the end of the spindle 17 which extends through a centre aperture in the element 2.
- the cam 32 has three inclined ramps 33 and is retained between the element 2 and the cover 34 which is secured to the body 1 of the buckle by screws 35.
- Control means for rotating the cam 32 comprise a lug 36 which extends through a curved slot 37 provided in the cover 34 and in a blind aperture 38 provided in a lever 39 which is retained on the end of the spindle 17 by a screw 40. The latter allows the lever to rotate freely.
- the ramps 33 of the cam 32 exert a force on the ends of the push-rods 30 which bear against the member 25 and urge it away from the disc 8 and at the same time withdraw the locking members 10, the locking members l and remaining stationary.
- a remote control means which includes a flexible cable (not shown).
- This cable can be anchored at one of its ends in a groove 41 provided in the periphery of the cam 32, this.
- a rapid-release buckle for releasable straps of a harness for example of a parachute or safety device
- the buckle comprising means defining a body having an axis and later] openings in the body for respectively radially receiving the straps, withdrawable locking members within the body for respectively lockingly engaging the releasable straps, a first actuating device coacting with all of said locking members to withdraw them from the releasable straps and comprising a control element mounted on the body on one side of said openings axially of the body to rotate about said axis, a second actuating device controllable independently of the first actuating device and co-acting with only a selected number of said locking members for withdrawing the selected number of locking members from a corresponding selected number of the releasable straps; the second actuating device comprises a withdrawing member movable axially ofthe body and combined with
- a rapid-release buckle for releasable straps of a harness, for example of a parachute or safety device
- the buckle comprising means defining a body having an axis and lateral openings in the body for respectively radially receiving the straps, withdrawable locking members within the body for respectively lockingly engaging the releasable straps, a first actuating device coacting with all of said locking members to withdraw them from the releasable straps and comprising a control element mounted on the body on one side of said openings axially of the body to rotate about said axis, a second actuating device controllable independently of the first actuating device and co-acting with only a selected number of said locking members for withdrawing the selected number of locking members from a corresponding selected number of the releasable straps;
- the first actuating device comprises a first withdrawing member which is mounted in the body to be movable axially of the body and carries all of the withdrawable locking members for withdraw
- control means comprises a lever mounted on the body to pivot about said axis 4.
