BUCKLE STRAP.

Application filed May 27,

To all whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, HERMAN A. KunznonN. a citizen of the United States, and a Aresident oi Seguin, county ot Guadalupe,

State ot Texas, have invented a new and useful Buckle Strap, oit which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to strap belts as worn around the waist by men or women, or to buckle straps of any nature as used for an;T purpose, and has to do particularly with such straps -`when provided with a tongueless buckle to secure them at various adjusted positions.

Illhe objects of my invention are to provide a simple cheap and effective means easily applied to a strap and which will eiiectually prevent slipping of such a tougueless buckle.

I attain the objects outlined by the special strap construction shown in the accompanying drawing and in which Figure l is a plan view ot a piece of strap showing certain transverse corrugations g5 formed in it through means eta special ribbed lining incorporated in the strap in manufacture;

Figure 2 is a side view ot a portion ol the strap about twice enlarged over the showing of Figure l to bett-er show the relation of the lining between the upper and lower sides of the strap;

Figure 3 is an edge view of a modified ribbed lining for incorporating with the st Tap;

Figure l is a perspective view of a piece oit my strap engaged by a tongueless buckle.

ln the drawings my strap will be seen to comprise two sides (l) and sewed togcther along` the edges as at (3) and also preferably glued or cemented together.

lnterposed between the sides before sewis a ribbed lining (el). This lining consists of tivo pieces of paper (or cloth) glued together over spaced strands of string (5) or other material, so that when inserted between the strap sides and all served or glued together it will form slightly raised spaced 1924.

transverse indicated.

Instead of forming the lining with separate strands of cord as explained, it may consist of a single or double layer of paper or cloth crimped at intervals as shown in Figure 3 at ln either case the lining forms the ridges in the strap whichcooperate with any type of tongueless buckle to eifectually hold the strap adjusted without recourse to teeth on the buckle, or through any destructive pinching of the strap.

Figure 4L shows in perspective a portion of my strap buckled as mentioned, and the transverse rib (7) is seen to be taking the pulling strain against the end bar V(8) of the buckle.

It is of course possible to produce Vthe transversely ribbed strap in numerous ways,- butsince all finished straps of leather are ridges across the Y strap as made of two pieces sewed or glued together in order to expose the hair side oft the leather on both sides of the strap, my method of inserting a lining for a distance-along the strap where the buckle will eventually engage, is a. very simple way of securing the desired result and is very practicable for the lining can be made up in wide sheets and simply cut to the strap widths as wanted.

I claim:

l. A. st 'ap comprising two side strips secured together with a lining interposed having ribs thereon running transversely to the strap. c

2. A strap formed of tivo side pieces secured together with a lining interposed, said lining comprising' a sheet of flexible material with spaced ridges thereon extending in a direction. transversely of the strap.

3. A stra i) formed of two side Jieces se? cured together with a lining interposed, said lining comprising two layers of flexible material with spaced ridges therebetween extending in a direction transversely of the strap.
