SUSPENDER-BUCKLEF SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 700,828, dated May 27, 1902. Application filed March 1, 1902. Serial No. 96,200. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that 1, MAX RUBIN, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of New York,borough of Manhattan ,county and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Suspender-Buckles, of which the following is a specification.

The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved suspender-buckle composed of a single piece of metal and which is strong and durable, can be easily adjusted, and need not be sewed to or attached in an analogous manner to the suspender-webbing.

In the accompanying drawings, in which like letters of reference indicate like parts in all the figures, Figure 1 is a face view of my improved suspender-buckle. Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view on the line 2 2 of Fig.1. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a sectional view showing how the buckle is applied on the susponder.

The buckle is struck from a piece of sheet metal and is constructed with the top and bottom bars A and B, the intermediate bar 0, midway between and parallel with the bars A and B, and the end bars D, which unite the ends of the bars A, B, and O. 'The top and bottom bars A and B are curved gtransversely, so that their outer faces will be more or less convex transversely, and the inner edge a of each of said bars is inclined inward and more or less toward the bar. 0. The intermediate bar 0 is curved transversely in such a manner that its outer surface will be concaved transversely, and along its edges this bar is provided with spurs E, which are preferably inclined more or less toward the top and bottom barsA and B. The intermediate bar is located back of the plane through the bars A and B to such an extent that the edges a, of the bars A and B and the edges of the bar 0 will'be about in the same plane. The ends of the bar 0 are bent, as at b, to meet the end bars D. These end bars have their outer edges turned under the said bars to the rear, so as to furnish a neat and smooth rounded edge for grasping the buckle.

The free end F of the Suspender-webbing F is passed under the bars A and B and over the bar 0 from the top in such a manner that the inner face of the webbing rests upon the bar (1, the free end of the webbing end F being within the buckle. The webbing F, which passes through the elongated eye G of the suspender-end, is passed under the bars A and B and over that part of the webbing already in the buckle, as shown in Fig. 4, thereby entirely covering and concealing the back of the buckle.

If the buckle is held by grasping the end bars D, the webbing F can be pulled in the direction of its length through the buckle or the buckle moved on the webbing.

The end F is at all times held on the buckle.

The face of the webbing is always at the outjacent bars and having spurs on its edges, the

said adjacent bars having their inner edges bent inward and toward the intermediate bar to form clamping edges, the spurs on the intermediate bar being inclined upward and outward and in the direction toward the front face of the buckle, substantially as set forth.

2. A suspender-buckle constructed of a single piece of sheet metal and having the top and bottom bars A and B, the inner edges of which are inclined inward, the intermediate bar 0 in a plane behind that ofthe bars A and B, and having spurs on its edges which spurs are inclined upward and outwardtoward the face of the buckle and the end bars D having their outer edges bent over-on the rear, substantially as set forth.

A and B,'and having spurs E which spurs are name to this specification, in the presence of 1 inclined upward and outward toward the face two subscribing witnesses, this 24th day of of the buckle, the end bars D uniting the bars February, 1902. A, B, and C and the curved parts b uniting MAX RUBIN. 5 the end bars with the end parts of the bar 0, Witnesses:
