Description

[0001] Rotating deck belt buckle that allows for a free design while maintaining familiar handling for opening and closing the belt. State of the art

[0002] After researching at the German Patent and Trademark Office, I found a comparable product.

[0003] Applicant: Ehrlich, Tjark, 57074 Siegen

[0004] Registration number: DE 20 202 000 5130

[0005] In this utility model, the joint is located on the lower long side of the double belt buckle, and the belt is brought into its final position by a fixed prong. problem

[0006] The invention described in the claims addresses the problem of designing a belt buckle that allows for a free design without being restricted by the belt strap when closed, while still accommodating the customary handling of belts with a movable prong buckle. Solution

[0007] The problem mentioned above is optimally solved by the features listed in the claims. Benefits achieved

[0008] The invention allows for a belt buckle with a free design that is not obscured by the belt strap, similar to a plate buckle. This offers the advantage that the belt strap can be routinely threaded through the lower buckle, as with a belt featuring a movable prong buckle. The top buckle can then be easily opened or closed with one hand from the lower buckle using a suitable fastener. Further development of the invention

[0009] No further details. Description of an exemplary embodiment

[0010] The belt strap is threaded through the loops on the waistband as usual. Then, the free end of the belt is passed through the lower buckle. The end of the belt is pulled upwards and to the left. The movable prong(s), depending on the design, are then inserted through the corresponding hole(s). During this process, the top plate is fully open and located on the left side. The belt end is then folded back and pulled through the loop on the belt. Finally, the movable top buckle is closed and secured with a suitable fastener to the lower buckle.
