Abstract
A buckle device includes a main body, a rotational retaining member rotatably mounted to the main body, and a buckle having an end connected to the rotational retaining member to pivot therewith. The other end of the buckle further includes an engaging plate for releasably engaging with an engaging member of the main body. The rotational retaining member includes two shaft halves having a slit therebetween through which a free end of a strap extends. The free end of the strap wraps around the shaft halves and extends through the slit between the shaft halves when the engaging plate on the buckle engages with the engaging member of the main body.

A buckle device comprising, in combination:
- a main body having an engaging member and two aligned holes;
- a rotational first retaining means including a slit through which a free end of a strap is extended and including two side discs rotatably received in the aligned holes of the main body, with the rotational first retaining means being rotatably mounted to the main body;
- and
- a buckle having a first end connected to the rotational first retaining means to pivot therewith and a second operative end, the second operative end of the buckle further including a second retaining means thereon for releasably engaging with the engaging member of the main body.
A buckle device comprising:
- a main body including two side walls, each said side wall including a first end, a second end, and a mediate portion, the mediate portions of the side walls including aligned holes, the first end of each said side wall including an engaging notch defined therein;
- a rotational first retaining means rotatably mounted to the main body and including a first shaft half, a second shaft half, and two side discs rotatably received in the aligned holes of the main body, respectively, the side discs being coupled to two sides of each of the first shaft half and the second shaft half to rotate therewith and to define a slit between the first shaft half and the second shaft half through which a free end of a strap is extended;
- and
- a buckle having a first end connected to the rotational first retaining means to pivot therewith and a second operative end, the second operative end of the buckle further including a second retaining means thereon for releasably engaging with the engaging notches of the main body.
A buckle device comprising:
- a main body including two side walls, each said side wall including a first end, a second end, and a mediate portion, the mediate portions of the side walls including aligned holes, the first end of each said side wall including an engaging notch defined therein;
- a rotational first retaining means rotatably mounted to the main body and including a first shaft half having a first stub extended axially from each of two sides thereof, a second shaft half having a second stub extended axially from each of two sides thereof, and two side discs rotatably received in the aligned holes of the main body, respectively, each said side disc including two openings through which the first stub and the second stub extend to securely couple the side discs to the first shaft half and the second shaft half to rotate therewith and to define a slit between the first shaft half and the second shaft half through which a free end of a strap is extended;
- and
- a buckle including two side walls each having a first end and a second end, said first end of each said side wall of the buckle including a slot through which an associated said first stub and an associated said second stub extend to couple the buckle to the rotational first retaining means to pivot therewith, the side walls of the buckle further including a second retaining means provided on the second end thereof for releasably engaging with the engaging notches of the main body.
