UNITED STATES ATENT OFFICE.
DIVIGHT L. SMITH, OF IVATERBURY, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR TO THE IVATERBURY BUCKLE COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.
BUCKLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 405,920, dated June 25, 1889.
Application filed April 15, 1889- Serial No. 307,261. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, DWIGHT L. SMITH, of Vaterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Buckles; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in
Figure 1, a front view; Fig. 2, a top View; Fig. 3, a rear view; Fig. -i, the plate A detached; Fig. 5, the plate B detached; Fig. 6, a vertical section on line a; :0 of Fig. 2, looking toward the front.
This invention relates to an improvement in that class of snspeinler-bucklcs in which the frame is made of tubular forn1that is, with a front and back plate parallel with each other, leaving a space between the front and back through which the suspcnder or strap may pass, said frame having combined therewith an L-shaped lever, the jaw of which swings between the back and front of the frame and extends through aslot in the front plate, and is provided at its lower end with a hook or loop to receive the Suspender-end, the invention having special reference to the construction of the frame and it consists in the construction as hereinafter described, and pa cularly recited in the claim.
A represents the front plate, cut from sheet metal of the desired width and of a length equal to the length of the finished frame plus twice the thickness of the frame. Upon the upper edge of the plate A, at each end, is an car a, of a width slightly less than the thickness of the frame, and upon the lower edge at each end is a like ear I). The plate is also constructed with a longitudinal slot (Z. The ends of the plate A, with the ears, are turned backward at right angles to the plate.
B represents the back plate, which is of a length and width corresponding to the plate A. The ends of the plate B are turned forward at right angles and so as to set between the turned-back ends of the plate A, and the extreme ends of the plate B are then turned toward each other, forming a U-shaped bend in each end of the plate.
The lever is constructed in the usual manner for this class of buckles-that is, it consists of a plate C of a length corresponding to the slot (1 in the plate A, and is provided with an eye 6, or may be any other known device for securing the Suspender-end. The upper or jaw edge of the lever is turned at right angles and is preferably serrated, and
is extended at each end to form a pivot f. The width of the jaw is nearly equal to the width between the front and back plates.
The parts of the buckle are assembled by placing the back plate B between the turnedin ends of the plate A and then closing the ears a a Z) 1) into the U-shaped ends of the plate B, which firmly unites the two plates. The lever is introduced through the slot in the plate A, in the usual manner, the pivots f projecting upon the inside beyond each end of the slot and serving to retain the lever in place and as pivots upon which the lever may swing.
In terming the plates A B, respectively, front and back, I do not wish to be limited to this position of the plates, as either may be the front or back, and the slot for the lever may be in either plate.
I claim- The herein-described buckle, consisting of the plate A, its ends turned at right angles and constructed with ears a a b b, a second plate B, corresponding to the plate A, its ends turned upward into U shape, the ears on the plate A turned into the U-shaped ends of the plate B, one of said plates constructed with the slot (1, combined with a lever, the jaw of which rests between said plates and which extends through the slot (1, substantially as described.
