Abstract
A buckle is formed by an upper plate (33) pivotally connected to an end of a first band, and a lower plate (35) and pivotally connected to the upper plate, and a slidable frame (40) pivotally connected to an end of the lower plate. A push plate (43) is attached to the slidable frame so that a second band (36) can be inserted in the space between the push plate and a bottom plate (38), and a pushing projection (48) is formed at an end of the lower plate for pressing the push plate to the second band. A stopper rod (50) is provided in the slidable frame so as to abut against the pushing projection at a position where the pushing projection strongly presses the push plate, thereby preventing the lower plate from rotating downwardly over the slidable frame fixing position.
Claims21
A buckle for a personal adornment band comprising:
- at least an upper plate and a lower plate pivotally connected to an end of a first band, and pivotally connected to each other;
- a slidable frame having a bottom plate and a pair of side walls formed on both sides of the bottom plate and pivotally connected to an end of the lower plate;
- a pushing projection formed at an end of the lower plate for fixing the slidable frame to a second band;
- stopper means provided in the slidable frame so as to abut against the pushing projection at a position where the pushing projection fixes the slidable frame to the second band, thereby preventing the lower plate from rotating downwardly over the slidable frame fixing position.
