Description
jan. 3, 156 G, R, CANTIL TROUSER WAIST BUCKLEl Filed Sept. 9, 1952 n 7 mM/ww NC R 03m mm @A 0 United States This invention relates to special garment buckles useful in connection with adjustable waists for trousers.
In United States Patent No. 2,674,742, issued April 13, 1954, there is shown a new and novel trouser construction, having an adjustable waist pleated design. This adjustable waist utilizes a buckle and strap arrangement. The present invention discloses a buckle construction adopted specifically for this use.
Accordingly a principal object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved waist buckle for use with adjustable waist type trousers.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved waist buckle adopted to provide a smooth trouser crease.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a novel waist buckle structure adopted for easy assembly in the manufacture of adjustable waist trousers.
A still further object of the present invention is to provide a waist buckle structure requiring no sewing in manufacture of adjustable Waist trousers.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a waist buckle structure adopted to provide a long bar for distributing the pull of the buckle strap.
An additional object of the present invention is to provide a novel waist buckle construction adopted to receive a narrow strap.
These and other objects and features may be better understood and appreciated from the following specifications and drawing in which are views of one embodiment of the invention.
The present invention compromises generally a U- shaped member having two parallel arms joined at one end, and a clamping bar adapted toride on the parallel arms. The two arms are folded back to form loops at their free ends. The free ends of the arms are inserted through the garment material and a holding bar is inserted through the loops, thus fastening the buckle to the garment without the necessity of a sewing operation. The free ends of the arms are tapered to permit easy insertion through the garment material by separating the threads of the Weave, and the bar 6 is bent or crimped at one end so that it wil not slide through the arm loops. 1t should be noted that as the buckle is pulled by its cooperating strap the bar presses against the crease of the material 7 of the garment. This distributes the load over the full length of the bar. Such a distribution permits the buckle to function without causing the crease to pull or distort.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of the invention,
Figures 2, 2A, 3, 4, 9 and 10 show detail viewsof the embodiment of Figure 1,
Figure shows another embodiment of the invention and,
Figures 6, 6A, 7, 8, 10 and 10A show detail views of the embodiment of Figure 5.
Figure `1 shows a perspective view of an embodiment atene f RCC 2,728,956 Patented Jan. 3, 12956 of the invention. It comprises a U-shaped member 1 having a pair of parallel arms 2 and 3, a holding bar 6 and a clamping barl 8. The freeV ends of the parallel arms 2 and 3 are folded back at their ends to form a pair of loops 4 and 5. The clamping bar 8 rides on the parallel arms 2 and 3 and the holding bar 6 is inserted in the loops 4 and 5 to hold the buckle firmly against the material 7 of the garment. The folded edges of arms 2 and 3 are provided with points. These points permit the operator to insert the arms 2 and 3 of the U-shaped member into the edge of the crease in the material 7 of the garment. The contacting edges of the members 1 and 8 have scalloped edges to provide a tighter grip on the strap (not shown) which is inserted between them.
Figures 2 and 2A show front and side views of the U- shaped member. It should be noted that the facing sides of the arms are smooth with the entire fold being toward the rear. This permits the buckle arms 2 and 3 to lie flat within the crease fold of the trousers.
Figures 3 and 4 show top and side views of the clampl ing bar 8. The face edges of clamping bar S is scalloped Iii) to provide a irrn grip on the strap cloth.
Figures 5 to 8 show another embodiment of the invention. In this embodiment the clamping bar 6 is of the same length as in the previous embodiment. However, by providing a crimp along the length of the clamping bar it is thereby adapted to support a U-shaped member having a smaller width. This permits the use of a narrower cooperating strap.
Figures 9 and 9A show one embodiment of the holding bar 6. It is bent at one end 10 and is inserted through the loops 4 and 5 so that the bent end is at the top. This prevents the bar from sliding through the loops once inserted.
' Figures 10 and 10A show another embodiment of the holding bar 6. In this embodiment the bar 6 is provided with a crimp portion 11 which serves the same purpose as the bent portion 19 of Figures 9 and 9A.
Therefore the present invention shows a waist buckle which may be inserted into the edge of the crease of a pair of trousers with ease. The pointed edges do not require any pre-piercing or cutting. The buckle is fastened to the garment without the necessity of sewing. lt is firmly and permanently held in place bya holding bar. The holding bar nests inside the crease and provides a long, smooth bearing surface when the strap pulls the buckle. This removes the possibility of unsightly wrinkles in the waist.
Various modifications of an immaterial nature will occu-r to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention. The buckles are perferably made of metal but may be made with wood or plastic or any other equivalent material.
