JOHN FISHER, OF ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA.
TRACE-BUCKLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 729,854, dated. June 2, 1903.
Application filed April 20, 1898. Serial No. 678,219. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN FISHER, of St. Paul, in the countyof Ramsey and State of Minnesota, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Trace-Buckles, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation, partly in section, showing my improved buckle in position with the straps attached. Fig. 2 is an edge'view of the buckle looking toward its front end, and Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section of the same.
My invention relates to trace-buckles used upon harness, and is designed to provide a buckle of this character which will allow the free adjustment of the billet and the backstrap, so that there will be aneven strain and Wear upon the ends of these straps.
In the drawings, 2 represents the body of the buckle, having a rear loop 3 secured thereto and a separate loop 4, which extends through the open center of the buckle, the trace 5 extending through both of these loops, as shown in Fig. 1. The buckle-body is preferably provided with a pin 6, which engages a suitable hole provided therefor in the trace. At each side the buckle is provided with loops 7 and 8, which are loosely connected to the buckle, so that they will swing freely and adjust themselves to any angular position of the straps. I have shown two methods of making this loose connection,and many others will suggest themselves to those skilled in the art. Thus for the lower loop 8, to which the bellyband is secured, I cast an eye 9 in the tracebuckle body, and I provide'the loop 8 with a split eye 10, this eye being cast open and then slipped through the eye on the tracebuckle and closed in the position shown. I preferably employ a roller 11 for this loop 8, around which the billet extends.
For attachment of the loop 7 I show the buckle-body as having a curved portion 12,
with an inner recess in which the eye of the loop rests. This loop 7 is cast with a diagonal split 13 at the juncture of the loop and its eye andwith outer severed ends, as shown at 14. The loop is cast open and then being slippedinto the side recess of the buckle the ends are bent together and the diagonal split closed, the outer joint being covered by the roller 15, around whiclrthe back-band 16 extends.
It will be readily seen that as the back and belly bands assume any diagonal position relatively to the buckle the loops will adjust themselves to any such position and give a direct strain upon the strap on account of the .loose or universal joints between the loops and the buckle.
Many changes may be made in the form of the buckle and theloop without departing from my invention, since I claim--- The combination with a tug and a tugbuckle, of metal loops pivoted to said buckle, the pivots being perpendicular to the loops and to the buckle,and said buckle being provided with meansfor connecting the tug with the buckle in a line at right angles to the axes of the pivots; substantially as described. In testimonywhereof I have hereunto set my hand.
JOHN FISHER.
