The buckle sections lie one on top of the other approximately parallel to each other with the formation of a gap therebetween. The buckle sections have respective gap sides which face the gap and respective outsides which face away from the gap, and they have slots and bars for diverting the straps including a bar in one buckle section opposite a slot in the other buckle section. The bar of the first buckle section is aligned on its gap side with a plane of the first buckle section and is of at least the same width as the slot of the other buckle section. A loop of the strap wraps around the bar and includes loop end portions passing through the slot that extend by the outside of the second buckle section.
In a clamping buckle for a strap having a buckle upper part and a buckle lower part, said upper part and said lower part being swingable with respect to each other around a hinge axis, wherein said upper part and lower part have a position for clamping the strap in which said parts are engaged one above the other in approximately parallel planes and form two pull-through gaps, said parts having slots and arms for diverting the strap including an arm of the buckle upper part opposite and partially overlapping a slot of the buckle lower part forming an angularly bent pull-through gap course, the improvement wherein:
