The restraint assembly includes a mounting plate having a vertical slot. The plate covers an opening in a surface which is located to restrain a patient. An adapter buckle has a “T” stop which is releasably coupled to the vertical slot. The buckle includes an arm and a head. The head includes a horizontal slot for releasable receipt of a strap of the patient restraint. The arm includes an angular bend which positions the head relative to the plate during use. A lock may be used to prevent undesired separation of the buckle from the plate.

A double-sided male buckle clip adapted for use with two female buckle clips includes a clip body. The clip body has two male clip portions each of which has at least one resilient hook adapted for separably engaging a respective one of the female buckle clips. The male clip portions of the clip body are molded as a single piece.

A closure device for connecting two assemblies to each other includes a first closure part, which is associated to a first one of the assemblies and includes a first magnetic element, and a second closure part which includes a second magnetic element. The first closure part and the second closure part can be attached to each other along a closing direction by magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element, are mechanically and/or magnetically held at each other in a closed position, and can be separated from each other for opening the closure device. A connecting part includes a fastening device for fastening the second closure part to the connecting part and an integration portion for fixing the connecting part to a second one of the assemblies.

A glove and garment system includes a garment having a first sleeve and a second sleeve, a first glove and a second glove. A first female buckle portion is mounted to the first glove, a first male buckle portion is mounted to the first sleeve, a second female buckle portion is mounted to the second sleeve and a second male buckle portion is mounted to the second glove. In a first configuration, the first male buckle portion is buckled to the first female buckle portion to fix the first glove to the first sleeve and the second male buckle portion is buckled to the second female buckle portion to fix the second glove to the second sleeve. In a second configuration, the first female buckle portion is buckled to the second male buckle portion to fix the first glove to the second glove.

A quick-release buckle has a male member and a female member configured to interlock, the female member having a body with a recessed receiving portion and one or more lips overhanging a portion of the recessed receiving portion; the male member having a keyed portion shaped complementary to the recessed receiving portion of the female member; wherein the keyed portion of the male member is receivable within the recessed receiving portion to interlock.

A belt buckle adapted for securing a plurality of tools. The multi-purpose belt buckle system includes a first component for screwing a screw and a second component for holding the first component. The first component is T-shaped and includes various types of screwdriver heads. The second component further includes a slot for holding the first component, at least one open wrench and least one means for connecting a strap/lace.

A fastener having two strap ends connected by an elastomeric member is described. The elastomeric member has sufficient elasticity to allow a user to increase the distance of separation between the two strap ends by applying a separation force, while providing enough tension to return the two strap ends to close proximity when the user releases the separation force. The elastomeric member may also have an adjustable elasticity to accommodate different applications with different load forces. The two strap ends may each be attached to two connectors.

A kit of pieces is provided comprising a buckle (1), a pair of braces and at least one elongate guide stick. The buckle comprises a first portion (2), a second portion (3), and a clamp portion (4). The first portion (2) is situated in front of the second portion (3) when the buckle (1) is in use. The clamp portion (4) is configured to clamp a first end of a belt against the second portion (3), and the first portion (2) is configured to clamp a second end of the belt against the second portion (3). Further, the first portion (2) comprises at least one groove (6).

A latching device configured to secure a first piece of material to a second piece of material. For example, the first piece of material is a boat tarp and the second piece of material is a boat hull. The latching device includes a locking buckle and clasp assembly. The locking buckle has a main body portion and a release mechanism. The release mechanism has locking pawls with claw members. The locking pawls engage the clasp assembly to releasably retain the locking buckle on the clasp assembly.

In an example, a wearable article includes a nonwoven textile sheet having a first portion and a second portion contiguous with the first portion. The first portion has a first density and a first modulus of elasticity. The second portion has a second density less than the first density and has a second modulus of elasticity less than the first modulus of elasticity. The first portion is shaped differently than the second portion as an integral implement of the wearable article. A method of manufacturing a wearable article may comprise thermoforming the first portion while the second portion contiguous with the thermoformed first portion is not thermoformed.
