A buckle used to fasten opposing ends of an object encircling strap around a bundle. The buckle includes a base and a lever tensioner. The base has a bottom and two opposing sides extending from the bottom. Each side includes a first end and a second end. The sides at the first end of the base have pivot holes. The lever tensioner is pivotally connected to the base. The lever tensioner includes a first end and a second end. The first end of the lever tensioner includes pivot hinge tabs. The pivot hinge tabs are positioned in the pivot holes of the base to pivotally secure the lever tensioner to the base.

A belt connection structure of a wearable product is provided. A first transmission rack is provided on a side wall of a first elongate hole. A second transmission rack is provided on a side wall of a second elongate hole facing the first transmission rack. A gear is engaged with the first and second transmission racks respectively. A connecting member coaxial with the gear is provided on a side surface of the gear. A sleeve communicating with a slide way is provided on the outer side wall of an outer cover. The inner side wall of the sleeve is provided with teeth extending in the axial direction. At least two annular grooves are formed on the outer side wall of the sleeve. A belt button is mounted on the sleeve, and comprises a pressing portion and a connecting column. The pressing portion and the connecting column are slidable in the axial direction but are not rotatable relative to each other. Position limiting teeth are provided on the outer side surface of the connecting column. The circumferential surface of the connecting column is further provided with a snap-fit flange spaced from the connecting column. The snap-fit flange is engaged with an annular groove.

A belt system may be worn with an article of clothing. The system can also be used with other items such as watch straps, purse straps or animal collars or other articles that may include a buckle system that is adjusted for size or where a number of size variations would be desirable. The system is a pin was configuration in that it includes a belt that does not have any holes. The belt includes a row of teeth that interface with a clamp like buckle. The row of teeth and/or the belt can be collectively made of a single material, such as silicon.

The present invention relates generally to first aid articles and more specifically tourniquets suitable for one handed application. One embodiment of the invention is directed to a tourniquet having a base defining first and second ends. A constricting band is attached to and extends from the first end of the base. A windlass handle is engaged with the constricting band. The constricting band is threaded through a self cinching stepped buckle. A buckle connector includes a hook member that engages the stepped buckle and is partly held in place through urging against a loop of the constriction band.

An improved strap tie-down device that includes two primary components, namely a base frame and a lever arm, and further includes a cam and a locking mechanism.

Tie-down assemblies and methods of their use are provided. In one embodiment, a tie-down assembly may include a buckle, a first strap, and a second strap. The buckle may include a frame, a handle pivotably attached to the frame and configured to pivot about a first axis between an open position and a closed position, and a drum rotatably attached to the handle and configured to rotate about a second axis, wherein the second axis is spaced apart from and extends parallel to the first axis. The first strap may be attached to the frame, and the second strap may be configured to removably attach to the drum.

Disclosed is a quick release tool belt for the waist of a user, which includes a support strap, a release band with belt teeth on a first end and a binding with a release mechanism on the second end and slidably coupled to the release band. The binding has a base, a release rotationally attached to the base with a tooth lock, a tooth coupling rotationally attached to the base and engaged with the release and the release band, and a lever rotationally attached to the release and engaged with the release band with a tightening tooth. When the release is in the engaged position the tooth coupling and the lever are engaged with the release band and when the release is in the release position, the tooth coupling is operably engaged with the release and the tooth coupling and the lever are disengaged with the release band.

A strap adjustment system has a base body having a bottom wall, two side walls and a strap retaining bar extending between the two side walls, the bottom wall having an aperture therethrough with screw threads extending around an inside surface, and a screw disc having a central protrusion and screw threads extending around the central protrusion. The central protrusion fits through the aperture in the base body by rotating the screw disc so that the threads in the screw disc mate with the threads in the aperture, such that a height of the protrusion above the bottom wall of the base body is adjustable by turning the screw disc. In situations where a high degree of friction is required, the protrusion can be positioned at a maximum height through the aperture, and in situations where a low degree of friction is desired, the protrusion can be positioned lower.

A strap buckle has a base. The base has a bottom plate and two side plates each having one end formed with a pivot hole. The base has a retaining portion spaced from the bottom plate. An opening is defined between the bottom plate and the retaining portion. A swinging member has a pivot portion pivotally connected to the pivot hole. Two opposite sides of the pivot portion have two perforations, respectively. Two transverse rods pass through the perforations and are arranged in parallel. The swinging member is pivoted relative to the base to drive the two transverse rods to rotate together. A pressing assembly has a pressing member and an elastic member. The pressing member is disposed between the two side plates of the base. A first strap is inserted between the bottom plate and the pressing member and wound around the two transverse rods.
