Abstract
A buckle for binding two items together that includes a male plate and a female plate. The male plate further includes a locking member that is movable between a locking position and an unlocking position, wherein the locking member in the locking position interacts with the locking mechanism to lock the male plate to the female plate along a longitudinal axis that is perpendicular to the binding axis. The female plate includes a locking mechanism that includes two arms extending from opposing ends of the female plate respectively and is adapted to slidably receive the male plate therewithin to secure the male plate face-to-face to the female plate along a binding axis.
Claims8
A buckle for binding two items together comprising
- a) a male plate comprising a first fastener disposed at a first end for connecting to a first item;
- and
- b) a female plate comprising a second fastener disposed at a first end for connecting to a second item;
- wherein said male plate is adapted to couple to said female plate along the plane of said two plates with said first end of said male plate and said first end of said female plate in opposing sides to form a binding axis to bind said two items together;
- said female plate further comprises a locking mechanism comprising two arms extending respectively from opposing ends of said female plate and adapted to slidably receive said male plate therewithin to secure said male plate face-to-face to said female plate along said binding axis;
- wherein said male plate further comprises a locking member that is movable between a locking position and an unlocking position, said locking member in said locking position interacts with said locking mechanism to lock said male plate to said female plate along a longitudinal axis perpendicular to said binding axis;
- wherein said locking member in a resting state is in said locking position such that when said male plate is coupled to said female plate, said male plate is stabling locked into said locking position, said locking member is further movable by a simple pulling action to said unlocking position such that said male plate can be disengaged from said female plate along said binding axis and said longitudinal axis.
A buckle for binding two items together comprising
- a) a male plate comprising
- i) a first fastener disposed at a first end of said male plate for connecting to a first item;
- ii) a tongue member comprising a tongue disposed on a first end of said tongue member and adapted to be movable between a locking position and an unlocking position;
- and
- b) a female plate comprising
- i) a second fastener disposed at a first end of said female plate for connecting to a second item;
- ii) a hook arm extending from said first end of said female plate and disposed on a base;
- iii) a flange arm extending from a second end of said female plate and disposed on said base;
- and
- wherein said male plate is adapted to couple to said female plate along the plane of said two plates with said first end of said male plate and said first end of said female plate in opposing sides to form a binding axis to bind said two items together;
- said flange arm and said hook arm of said female plate area are adapted to slidably receive said male plate therewithin to secure said male plate face-to-face to said female plate along said binding axis;
- said tongue in said locking position interacts with said hook arm to lock said male plate to said female plate along a longitudinal axis perpendicular to said binding axis;
- such that when said male plate is coupled to said female plate, said male plate is stabling locked into said locking position, said tongue is further movable by a simple pulling action to said unlocking position such that said male plate can be disengaged from said female plate along said binding axis and said longitudinal axis.
