Definitions

  • the present patent application for industrial invention relates to a buckle with tongue, provided with additional closing device that uses two members that are snapped in with male-female coupling.
  • buckle of the invention may be applied on the most diverse leather or clothing articles, such as for example bags, rucksacks, shoes, jackets, etc.
  • an ordinary buckle for belts comprises a frame with annular configuration, mostly made of a rectangular frame and provided with a hook, which is technically defined as "tongue”, pivoted on one of its sides.
  • Said tongue is free to oscillate around its pivoting pin and has a suitable length so that its tip surmounts the other side of the annular frame, and more precisely the side in front of said tip, with transversal orientation with respect to the longitudinal axis of said hook.
  • One end of the belt is fixed on the side where the tongue is pivoted, whereas a series of regularly spaced holes is obtained on the other free end of the belt for insertion of said hook.
  • the user When using and tightening a similar belt, the user must insert the free end of the belt inside the annular frame, from the inside towards the outside, moving said hook away to prevent it from interfering with the free sliding of the free end inside the buckle.
  • the tongue is pivoted on a central pin, positioned between the two transversal sides of said annular frame; in these models of buckle the first end of the belt, that is to say the end without said regularly spaced series of holes, is fixed to the side of the frame situated in opposite position to the side where the tip of the hook is directed.
  • This model of buckles with intermediate pin allows for double insertion of the free end of the belt, the first insertion from the inside towards the outside of the buckle, and the second insertion astride said intermediate pin, from the outside towards the inside of the buckle.
  • buckles of different types have been devised and used for a long time, which are based on the use of two members that are snapped-in with male-female coupling, such as the ones that are commonly used to close the pockets or shoulder straps of rucksacks or backpacks for leisure time.
  • this second type of buckles is rather easy and quick, it only being necessary for the user to release the male element from the female element after pressing said teeth in order to bring them in maximum retraction position.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to realize a new model of buckle that is characterized by the same elegance of an ordinary buckle with tongue, but at the same time allows for opening and closing the buckle with easy, fast operations, same as the second type of buckles as illustrated above.
  • the inventive idea of the buckle of the invention is to apply an insert on an ordinary buckle with tongue, said insert being the male member of a pair of members that are snapped-in with male-female coupling. More precisely, said insert is attached to the same pivoting pin of the tongue of the buckle and concealed on the internal side of the buckle.
  • the opening and closing of the belt can be realized without moving the free end of the belt, but simply releasing or inserting said male member with respect to the corresponding female member that is permanently fixed to one end of the belt.
  • Fig. 1 is a view of the buckle of the invention in closing position.
  • Fig. 2 is basically the same as Fig. 1 except that the end of the belt is in overturned position, in order to show the tongue underneath for almost its entire length, as well as the pivoting pin, to which also the additional closing device, which uses two members that are snapped in with male-female coupling, is coupled.
  • Fig. 3 is a view of the two members for male-female coupling according to a preferred embodiment.
  • the buckle (F) of the invention comprises a frame (1 ) with annular configuration, being a rectangular frame in this case.
  • Said frame (1 ) incorporates the pivoting pin (2) of the tongue (3), the tip of which (4) surmounts said frame (1 ).
  • the innovative peculiarity of the buckle (F) of the invention consists in the fact that it also comprises an additional closing device, which uses two members (5 and 6) that are snapped-in with male- female coupling.
  • the male member (5) is coupled with said pivoting pin (2) and situated from the internal side of the buckle (F), in such a way to be completely concealed when the free end (BL) of the belt (C) is inserted through the buckle (F) and coupled with the tongue (3), as shown in Fig. 1.
  • said male member (5) consists in a metal plate (5a) provided at one end with eyelet (5b) for fixing to the pivoting pin (2), whereas at the other end it ends with an elastically flexible wing (5c) obtained by folding the end of the plate by almost 180°, as shown in Fig. 3.
  • a protruding beak (5d) is obtained by means of semi- shearing and/or pressure folding, which is adapted to be elastically snapped- in inside the female member (6) that, in this case, is composed of a simple metal arch (6a) with means (6b) for stable fixing to the other end (B) of the belt (C), that is to say the end without the series of holes (S) where the tip of the tongue (3) is to be inserted.
  • said means (6b) consist in a stud (6b) adapted to be glued, nailed or fastened to said end (B).
  • Said wing (5c) has a raised transversal border (5e) that acts as stop.
  • the opening and closing of the belt can be realized without releasing the free end (BL) from the tip of the tongue (3), but simply releasing a protruding beak (5d) from the snap-in seat represented by the arch (6a).
  • said force (FO) may be exerted on the end (BL), without overturning it, given the fact that the pressure exerted on the end (BL) would be transmitted unchanged on the flexible wing (5c) below.
  • the user simply needs to insert said wing (5c) under the arch (6a), so that said beak (5d) - interfering with said arch - forces the wing (5c) to progressively bend downwards, until the beak (5d) passes the arch (6a), with consequent elastic snap-in of the wing (3c) that can resume the raised idle position.
