Locking buckle assembly
11564458 · 2023-01-31 · ·

A locking buckle assembly for coupling and decoupling a web strap includes a strap plate and a base part. The base part includes a front plate and a rear cover. A locking mechanism including a release button and a locking peg is positioned between the front plate and the rear cover. The release button and the locking peg are biased by a spring through respective openings in the front plate. A lock plate is provided on a surface of the front plate. Respective longitudinal axes of the lock plate and the front plate are angularly offset from each other. The strap plate includes an opening sized to receive the lock plate and couples to the base part when the lock plate captures the strap plate and the longitudinal axes of the strap plate and the base part are aligned. In that orientation, the locking peg couples to the strap plate and the strap plate and the base part are only decoupled by pressing of the release button in opposition to the urging of the spring.

Magnetic buckle

A magnetic buckle includes first and second buckle members. The first buckle member includes a first end and a second end adapted to engage a strap, a mounting surface, a latching aperture defined in the mounting surface, and a first magnet. A release direction extends along a longitudinal axis of the first buckle member from the first end to the second end. The second buckle member includes a joining surface adapted to be joined with the mounting surface, a latch hook adapted to engage the latching aperture extending from the joining surface, and a second magnet. The magnets pull the latch hook into engagement with the latching aperture when the joining surface is placed in proximity to the mounting surface. Engagement of the latching aperture by the latch hook prevents the second buckle member from being pulled apart from the first buckle member in a direction orthogonal to the mounting surface or against the release direction.

A wearable electronic device assembly has a strap attached to the device for attaching the device to a wearer, and a connector for securing two overlapping end regions of the strap together. The connector has first and second parts configured to be secured together with the two overlapping end regions of the strap extending between them, to secure the two end regions together. The first part has a projection arranged to extend through or adjacent to the strap. The second part has a main body having an aperture to receive the projection of the first part, and a securement part movable with respect to the main body between a released position and a securement position. The projection is retained in the aperture to secure the first part of the connector to the second part of the connector.

Magnetic buckle device
11647815 · 2023-05-16 · ·

A magnetic buckle device has a buckle main body and an inserting head. When the inserting head is close to an insertion hole of the buckle main body, the magnetic attraction force between a first component on the inserting head and a second component on the buckle main body can assist with inserting the inserting head into the insertion hole. After the inserting head is inserted to a predetermined position, the magnetic attraction force will keep the buckle main body in an engaged state even without any additional fixing means. When the buckle main body is switched to a disengaged state and the inserting head is moved out of the buckle main body, the magnetic attraction force attracts the inserting head to attach to the buckle main body, and thereby, after moved out, the inserting head cannot move arbitrarily.

Linked shooting belt

An outer belt for use with inner-outer belt systems includes a series of multiple belt links pivotally attached with roll pins. Each link supports hook or loop fasteners along the inner surface of the belt link and includes extensions having channels disposed therethrough to accept a roll pin when interlocked with extensions on an adjacent link. Serially connecting several belt links forms a belt, and opposite ends of the serially connected belt links attach to a catch link and an expandable buckle assembly. The expandable buckle assembly includes a face plate supporting two translatable connectors held biased together with a resilient member and cooperates with the catch link when the outer belt is worn by a shooter around his waist. Additionally, when a shooter is wearing an inner belt of an inner-outer belt system, the hook or loop fasteners secure the outer belt to the inner belt.

MAGNETIC BUCKLING ASSEMBLY

A magnetic buckling assembly includes a male buckling component, a female buckling component, a first locking portion, a second locking portion, an operating component, a first magnetic component, a second magnetic component and a clearance structure. The first magnetic component magnetically attracts the second magnetic component for preventing separation of the male buckling component and the female buckling component or magnetically repulses the second magnetic component for promoting the separation of the male buckling component and the female buckling component when the operating component is operated to disengage the first locking portion from the second locking portion for allowing the separation of the male buckling component and the female buckling component. The clearance structure allows the second locking portion to slide an offsetting position for preventing the separation of the male buckling component and the female buckling component after engagement of the first locking portion and the second locking portion.
