PATENT OFFICE.
MEYER, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN BUCKLES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 55,8511, dated June 26, 1866.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, J. F. J. GUNNING and ISAAC T. MEYER, both of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Buckles; and we do hereby declare that the followingis a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the-accompanying drawings, forming' part of this speci` fication, in which- Figure l represents a front elevation of this invention. Fig. 2 is a transverse section of the same. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the same. v
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
This invention relates to a buckle made of one piece of metal wire, or other suitable Inaterial, which is bent so as to form two jaws and a shank, in such a manner that when the end of a belt or strap is secured to said shank, and the other end passed through both jaws and then back between the same, a strain exerted on said belt or strap will cause the jaws to close up and to clasp the belt or strap tightly, and if the strain ceases the jaws spring open by their inherent elasticity, and the belt or strap can be readily adjusted to any desired length.
A represents our buckle, which is made of one piece oi' metal wire, or other suitable material, bent in the form shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings, so as to form a shank, a, and two This buckle is applied to a strap or belt in the following manner: One end of said belt is permanently fastened to the shank a, and the other end is passed through both jaws b c, and then back between the jaws., as clearly shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings. If the belt or strap is exposed to a strain the jaws close up and clasp the same (the belt) tightly and iirmly between them, and as soon as the strain ceases the jaws open, and the belt or strap can be drawn through between them without (lifticulty.
The principal advantage of our buckle over others of a similar nature is that the same is made all in one piece, whereby its construction is simplified and it can be used with great convenience, and, furthermore, the two jaws are connected in such a manner that the same spring open, and the end of the belt can be readily introduced between them.
What we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A buckle made of one piece of metal wire, or othell suitable material, bent so as to form a shank,a., and two spring-jaws, b c, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
