Specification of Letters Patent.
' Patented Aug. 4, 1908.
Application filed January 21, 1908. Serial No. $11,889.
To all whom i t may concern:
Be it known that I, RICHARD ONEILL, Jr., a citizenof the United States, residing at Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Buckles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full,
clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to figures of reference marked thereon, which form'a part of this specification.
This invention relates to an improved belt clasp or buckle which can be used on waist belts or as a collar clasp, or any similar position where an encircling band is adjustably fastened end to end.
This device provides for a belt without perforations, such as are used when a buckle is employed, and the belt can be tightened or loosened without removing it from the person '50 that when occasion requires, an adjustment of the belt can take place without attracting unnecessary attention. The clasp in this case'is of the kind that is normally held locked by the strain on the belt itself.
The invent-ion is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Fi ure 1 is a perspective view of a belt rovided with my improved clasp or buc le. Fig. 2 is a section of the clasp, and Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the clasp showing the back of it.
The illustration shows a belt having a body portion 10 of any of the usual materials employed, and on one end of the belt is a memer 11 forming a hook, preferably, but it can be made to engage in any of the other usual ways with the other member of the clasping device to be hereinafter described. The engaging member 11 has any suitable clasp 12 to-secure it to the end of the body portion 10. The free end 13 of the body portion 10 is the end that is used for the adjusting of the belt, and it passes through a clasp which consists ofa plate 14 which can be suitably figured or ornamented, but which is preferably made substantially U-shaped, thus acting to shield the free end of the swinging plate, to be described hereinaftcr, from accidental opening or swinging. A staple 15 extends across the back of the clasp and is the element that is engaged by the hook 11. On the reverse sideand at the open end of the substantially l to the front of the buckle, ant
U-shaped portion of the clasp is a bridge 16 which has a bottom 17, which bridge and staple 15 form a channel through which passes the free end 13 of the body portion of the belt 10, and the clasp is free to slide on the body portion when it is not positively locked. 'lhe bottom portion 17 of the bridge 16 is preferably provided with one end, 18, slight y turned up to form a ridge, and this engages one side of the belt 10.
Pivoted as at 20, in the ends of the bridge 16, is a swinging plate 19 which, with its right-angled portion 21, forms a clasping plate, and it has a free end 22 provided for its manual manipulation. It will be evident the position shown in Fig. 2, the clasp is locked on the belt so that there is no slipping.
When the end 22 is swung out however, the pressure is taken from the end 21 and the elt is free to slip through its channel in the clasp and to be adjusted thereon. This clasping plate is on the exterior of the clasp to provi e a ready means for adjustment when the belt is on the wearer, and the belt can be taken up and let out, which is a decided advantage, as it saves time and annoyance.
The construction of the buckle with the clasping plate inside the frame, when in looking position, saves the free end of the swin ing plate from accidental engagement wit rojections, and thus prevents accidental oosening of the belt.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:-
1.. A clasp comprising a plate having an opening in its face and having a channel in the back thereof for the passa e of the free end of a belt, and a swinging clasp tached to the first mentioned plate raving a portion for grasping the belt 111 its channel and having a free end for its manual mani )ulation, the free end of the swinging plate 0- ing within the said first mentioned plate when in its locked position, whereby it is shielded from accidental opening.
2. A clasp comprising a substantially U- shaped plate having a bridge on the back of its open end, a clasping plate pivoted in the open end and having a free end for its manual manipulation and a r ght-angled portion for clamping a belt on the bridge, the free end of the c asping plate being normally within the U-shaped plate, the clasping lplate swinging means for delate atplate and guiding the free'end of a belt be tween 1t and the late. p In testnnony, hat I claim the fore oing,-
I have hereunto set my hand this 20th day of January 1908.
tachably securing the clasp to the of the belt. 3. A clasp comprising a substantially U shaped plate having a bridge on the back of 5 its open end, a clasping late swinging in the ends of the bridge, the c as ing plate having a-free end to swing on the rent of the clasp and within and out of the U-shaped plate and having a right-angled port-ion to clasp a belt 10 on the bridge, and a staple on the bac of the other end- I RICHARD OXEILL, JR.
