BUCKLE Filed Aug. 9, 1929 INVE TOR /V0a/2 06/0 ATTORNEY Patented Mar. 3, 1931 warren s'rarss PATENT OFFICE NOAH RUBIN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., ASSIGNOR T0 H. GOODMAN & SONS, INC., OF NEW YORK, N Y., A CORPORATION 015' NEW YORK BUCKLE Application filed August 9,
My invention relates to improvements in buckles and is particularly adapted for use in fastening the straps of womens low shoes, slippers or pumps.
The principal object of my invention is to provide a buckle of such construction that the straps may be fastened without necessity of forming holes in the straps or perforating them in any manner. This is particularly advantageous in use of the buckle for fastening shoe straps as such straps are usually of narrow width and often made of delicate leathers. Consequently, with the ordinary type of buckle having a penetrating tongue, the straps soon become worn and the holes enlarged or torn, giving the straps an unsi htly appearance.
A further object is to provide a buckle of 7 simple, sturdy and inexpensive construction which is adapted to adjustably and securely fasten the straps together by clamping or wedging them between the tongue and the frame of the buckle.
Another object is to provide a construction whereby none of the parts of the buckle touch or contact with the foot.
Further objects and advantages of the in-' Vention will appear from the following description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, in which Figure l is a plan View of the buckle frame.
Fig.2 is a plan view of the buckle with its tongue closed or in clamping position.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view showing the tongue thrown back. i i
Fig. i is a front view of the buckle with the straps fastened, and
has a forwardly extending projection 4 intermediate its ends. The tip of this projection may be depressed slightly below the plane of the buckle. The frame is formed with substantially straight vertical inner edges, and may therefore be stamped readily 1929. Serial No. 384,548.
from a single piece of material with the use of relatively inexpensive dies.
A tongue or clamping member 5 is hinged to the bar 3 and extends partly across the frame with its outer or free end 6 spaced slightly from the inner front edge 7 of the buckle. The member 5 is curved or arched in the direction of its length so as to pass over the bar 2, and the two opposite sides of said member may be slightly concave or indented, as at 8, to permit of there being engaged by the fingers or nails for convenience in raising the tongue from its clamping position.
.In use, the buckle is permanently fastened V to one of the shoe straps, as strap 9, in any suitable manner. This may be done by means of stitching or stapling 10 extending over and around the bar 2 intermediate the projection 4 and the ends of the bar. It will be seen that the strap 9 extends under the bar 3 and thus prevents any of the parts of the buckle from touching the foot.
To fasten the straps, the companion strap 11 is passed, from below the buckle, up through the space between the front edge 7 and the bar 2 while the tongue is in raised position. The tongue is then pressed down on the strap, thus clamping or wedging the strap tightly between the smooth free end 6 of the tongue and the lower inner edge 7 of the frame. The projection 4 of the bar 2 acts as a stop to limit the clamping movement of the tongue. The free end of the strap 11 is then passed over the tongue, thereby concealing the latter, and down through the space between the bar 3 and the inner rear edge 12 of the frame. The construction of the device is such that the greater the strain on the strap, the tighter it will be held in adjusted position.
On unfastening the straps, the end of the strap 11 is drawnout from the buckle thus re leasing the clamping action of the tongue 5, which latter may then be freely raised to loosen the strap entirely.
It is to be understood that modificaions in the form and construction herein illustrated transverse bars, a clamping tongue hinged to one of said bars and extending over the other with its free end spaced slightly fromthe adjacent edge of the frame, anda projection on 5 the other of said transverse bars, said projection being-adapted to limit the movement of said clamping tongue to a position opposite the lower portion of said adjacent frame edge.v 2. A, buckle comprising a frame having two substantially parallel cross bars, a clamping tongue hinged to one of said bars-and eX- tending over the other with its free end spaced slightly from the adjacent edge of the frame, said tongue being curved in the direction of length, and a projection on the other of said bars adapted to limit the movement of said clamping tongue.
' 3;: buckle comprisingv a frame having two substantially parallel cross bars, a clamping-tongue hinged to one of said bars and extending over the other With its free end spaced slightly from the adjacent edge of the frame said tongue being curved in the direction "of length and'having opposed in- 25 dentationsin its lateral edges,and a projection on the other of said bars, said projection being adapted to limit the movement of said clamping tongue to a-position opposite the lower-portion o'f said' adjacent frame edge.- I NOAH RUBIN.
