CROSS-LINE BUCKLE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 13, 1907.
Application filed December 26,1906. Serial No. 349,458.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH H. HAUGHAWOUT, a citi zen of the United States, residing at Fail-mount, in the county of Fillmore and State of Nebraska, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cross-Line Buckles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the type of buckles having special reference to driving lines of double teams to admit of adjustment of the short, or cross line, with reference to the long, or main line, without necessitating the removal of the buckle from either line.
For a full description of the invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction and the means for effecting the result, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings.
While the invention may be adapted to different forms and conditions by changes in the structure and minor details without departing from the spirit or essential features thereof, still the preferred embodiment is shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a side view of a cross line buckle embodying the invention, showing the position of the parts when the lines are applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a view similar to Fig. 1, showing the manner of either adjusting the cross line, or placing the tongue in position. Fig. 3 is a central longitudinal section of the buckle. Fig. 4 is a top plan view of the buckle. Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view of the tongue.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
The buckle comprises essentially two parts, a frame and a tongue, said parts being readily separable. The frame is of rectangular formation and comprises side bars 1 and end bars 2 and 3, the several bars are flat and the end bars are arranged in a plane relatively at a right angle to the plane or width of the side bars 1. The side bars 1 are deflected at one end to form upturned portions 4 which project approximately at a right angle from the respective side bars. A notch 5 is provided in the upper edge of each side bar and provides a seat to receive the strap engaging cross bars 6 of the tongue 7 and thereby assists materially in holding the parts in proper position.
The buckle frame may either be cast, or stamped,
from sheet metal, the latter construction admitting of the side bars, when bent, occupying a position at a right angle to the end bars.
The tongue 7 is of alength approximating the distance between the end bars 2 and 3 of the frame to admit of its point engaging the end bar 2 and its butt, or rear end, engaging the rear portion of the frame.
The strap engaging cross bar 6 is located intermediate the ends of the tongue and is designed to enter the bi ght, or fold of the short, or cross line 8.
A cross bar 9 is provided at the inner, or rear end of the tongue 7 and is provided at its ends with hooks 10 to engage over the side bars 1 adjacent to the end bar 3 and abut against the inner edges of the upturned, or bent portions 4 thereof. When the tongue is in position, and 'the hooks 10 thereof are fitted over the side bars 1, the cross bar 9 occupies a position below the plane of the upper edge of said side bars, whereby ample provision is had for passage of the two lines 8 and 11 between the bars 3 and 9. The hooks 1O prevent lateral displacement of the tongue and rearward movement thereof with reference to the buckle frame, forward movement of the tongue being prevented by the ends of the cross bar 6 entering the notches 5. It is also observed that the cross line 8 is of a width approximating the distance between the inner walls of the side bars 1 so as to engage therewith and prevent transverse displacement of the tongue. The tongue may be formed in any manner either by casting or stamping.
' When the buckle is in position, the main line 11 passes beneath the end bars 2 and 3 of the frame and the end of the tongue forward of the cross bar 6, passes through one of a series of openings therein. The cross line 8 has an end portion doubled upon itself and in the fold, or bight, thus provided, is fitted the strap engaging the cross bar 6, the end of the tongue in advance of said cross bar, passing through an opening of the line. The hooks 10 engage over the upper edge of the side bars adjacent to the up-turned ends 4:, whereas the cross bars 9 occupies a position between the cross bars, thereby admitting of the two lines 8 and 11 passing over said cross bar 9 and between it and the end bar 3, thereby holding the cross bar in engagement with the frame so as to prevent possible displacement thereof. When the main and cross lines are under tension, the tongue 7 is held in engagement with the end bar 2. When it is required to adjust the cross line with reference to the main line, or to place the cross line in position, or to remove it from the main line, the latter is loosened between the end bars 2 and 3 of the buckle frame and formed into a loop as indicated in Fig. 2, thereby admitting of manipulation of the tongue and cross line in the manner stated, said parts occupying the space between the loop as clearly indicated in Fig. 2.
As shown in Fig. 2, the tongue and cross line may be readily removed and if it be required to engage the cross line with the buckle frame, it is only necessary to give the tongue and cross line a one-quarter turn to cause the cross bar 9 to occupy a position at right angles to the length of the buckle frame and byproper manipulation of the lines, the parts will assume the position indicated in Fig. 1.
The cross bars 3 and 9 form in effect a loop for coniin ing the straps 8 and 11 and preventing displacement thereof. The strap 11 engages with the front end of the tongue 7, the forward extremity of which engages with the end bar 2.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is.
end portion deflected and provided with seats in the length of the side bars, and a tongue having spaced cross-bars one of the cross bars having its end portions fitted in the aforesaidseats and the other cross bar having its ends engaged with the deflected end portions of the said frame.
4. In combination, a buckle frame comprising side bars and end bars, the side bars having corresponding end portions deflected to form upturned ends and said side bars having their upper edges notched to form seats, and a tongue provided with cross bars at intervals in its length, one of the cross bars adapted to enter the said seats of the side bars and the other cross bar having hooks at its ends to abut against the upturned ends of the side bars and to engage over the upper edges of said side bars adjacent to the upturned portions thereof.
In testimony whereof I athx my signature in presence its length with cross bars, each cross bar adapted to have 0f WitIIOSSQS- its opposite ends engage with the side bars of the frame and one of the cross bars adapted to enter the big'ht, or engage with the line or strap fitted to the said tongue and held in place thereby.
3. In a buckle, the combination of a frame having an JOSEPH H. HAUGHAWOUT.
