Buckle component
A buckle component (1, 2) having a main body (3) and a clamping web (4), the main body (3) having a belt-receiving opening (5), and the clamping web (4) being mounted displaceably on the main body (3) in the belt-receiving opening (5) for clamping a belt (6), which is guided around the clamping web (4), between the clamping web (4) and an edge (7) of the main body (3) bounding the belt-receiving opening (5). The buckle component (1, 2) additionally has a flap (8) which is mounted pivotably on the main body (3) by a pivot joint (9), and the flap (8) has a clamping surface (10) for clamping the belt (6) between the clamping surface (10) of the flap (8) and the clamping web (4) in a clamping position of the flap (8).
RATCHET BUCKLE
A ratchet buckle and belt system are disclosed. The ratchet belt includes a ratcheting mechanism configured to releasably engage with a notch strip of the belt. The ratcheting mechanism has a first pawl and a second pawl each rotatably coupled to a ratchet pin. The first pawl includes a first ratcheting tab and a first release lever wherein the first release lever is configured to rotate the first pawl and disengage the first ratcheting tab from the notch strip. The second pawl includes a second ratcheting tab and a second release lever wherein the second release lever is configured to rotate the second pawl and disengage the second ratcheting tab from the notch strip. When both the first and second ratcheting tabs are simultaneously disengaged from the notch strip, the ratcheting mechanism is disengaged from the belt forming a disengaged configuration.

BLOOD FLOW RESTRICTION EXERCISE STRAP
A blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise strap. The strap is configured with a coupling at a first end of an elastic band. A second free end of the band is releasably retained in the coupling by a lever arm that is biased in a closed configuration against a plurality of teeth carried on an interior surface of the base. The band has graduated indicia carried thereon for determining a constriction level applied by the band to a limb of the user. The graduated indicia allow the user to set a desired level of constriction on each of a left limb and a right limb to provide the user to develop bilateral symmetry of targeted muscle groups of the limbs.
Device for Suspending Rings for Gymnastic Exercises
A device for suspending gymnastic rings and handles is described. The device has a power spring to automatically retract a strap onto a spool. There is a cam buckle that holds the strap in place at a desired height. There are marks on the strap to use as reference to easily match the rings to the same height. The device is typically used as a pair, one device for each ring. Many handle and bars can be attached.

Belt buckle with integrated tool
The present application includes embodiments for a belt adjustment system. The belt adjustment system can be configured to engage a belt comprising a plurality of belt teeth. The belt engagement system can include a buckle portion that includes a belt clamp configured to couple the belt to the buckle, a lever pivotally movable between a first position and a second position, and a belt-engaging tab, the tooth-engaging tab positionable between a tooth-engaging position and a tooth-disengaging position responsive to the position of the lever on. The belt adjustment system can include a tool housing having a first wall and a second wall that form a slot. A tool comprising a distal end and a proximal end can be coupled to the tool housing, the tool positionable within the slot between a closed position and an open position.
Duty Belt Core
Duty belt core constituting a rigid backbone of a duty belt, comprising a left hand side piece firmly attached to a left hand half of a front belt buckle, a right hand side piece firmly attached to the right hand half of the front belt buckle. Each of the left hand and right hand side pieces is connected to a common back piece via side-symmetrical length adjustment patterns and safety stops preventing accidental disengagement of the side pieces from the common back piece. A belt buckle provided with extensions, as well as use hereof is also disclosed.

Web length adjuster
A web length adjuster may include a frame having a base and spaced-apart sidewalls each extending away from the base, a reaction bar mounted to and between the sidewalls and defining a first web clamping surface extending at least partially along a length of the reaction bar between the sidewalls of the frame, and a handle assembly rotatably mounted to and between the sidewalls and defining a second web clamping surface extending at least partially along a length of the handle assembly between the sidewalls of the frame, the handle assembly rotatable relative to the frame between a first position to clamp a web of a vehicle occupant restraint web between the first and second clamping surfaces and a second position to allow the web to pass between the first and second clamping surfaces. The first and second clamping surfaces may define opposite curvatures in transverse cross-section.
