Benefits of technology

[0030]Accordingly, in the strap adjuster according to the present invention, adhesibility between the lower surface of the strap adjuster and an object to be contacted can be i

Problems solved by technology

However, in the conventional strap adjuster 1, inconvenience is caused due to the substantial thickness of the frame 2 when the strap adjuster 1 is employed in knapsacks or clothes.
In particular, in the case where the strap adjuster 1 is employed in the shoulder strap of a knapsack, as the strap adjuster 1 comes into contact with the human body, interference is caused between the strap adjuster 1 and the human body, and damage to the clothes which are placed under the strap adjuster 1 can be caused.
Also, the strap adjuster 1 may not be kept fixed on the strap S and is likely to be easily moved due to contact with the human body or an external item so that the fixed state of the strap adjuster 1 cannot be stably maintained.
Meanwhile, the strap adjuster 1, which is installed on the strap S, is slid on the strap S by being grasped using fingers so as to adjust the effective length of the strap S. In this regard, even though the strap adjuster 1 has a substantial thickness even causing the interference as described above, the strap adjuster 1 is structured so that it is inconvenient to grasp the strap adjuster 1 using fingers.
That is to say, while it is the norm that both side surfaces of the strap adjuster 1 are grasped and the strap adjuste

Embodiment Construction

[0044]Reference will now be made in greater detail to preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numerals will be used throughout the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.

[0045]FIG. 5 is a perspective view illustrating a strap adjuster in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 6 is a front view of FIG. 5, and FIG. 7 is a side sectional view illustrating a state in which a strap is fitted through the strap adjuster. Referring to these drawings, a strap adjuster 101 has a quadrangular frame 102 which defines a space therein, and a support bar 103 which is formed in the middle of the space defined in the frame 102 to extend in a transverse direction. Slots 104 are defined between the support bar 103 and the frame 102 over and under the support bar 103 so that a strap S can be fitted through the slots 104.

[0046]The slots 104 defined in the s...

Abstract

A strap adjuster has a quadrangular frame; a plurality of slots defined in the frame to extend in a transverse direction such that a strap can be fitted through the slots; and at least one support bar formed between the slots, wherein recessions are formed on both widthwise side surfaces, respectively, of the frame such that the frame can be easily grasped using fingers.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates, in general, to a strap adjuster which is used to be mounted to a strap installed on knapsacks, bags, clothes, helmets, etc. so as to adjust the effective length of the strap or fix the strap adjuster at a desired position on the strap, and more particularly, to a strap adjuster which is configured to be conveniently moved on a strap and has improved adhesibility to the strap to be stably maintained in a fixed state without substantial protrusion.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]In general, straps are installed on knapsacks, bags, hats, clothes, etc. as the occasion demands. A strap adjuster is mounted to a strap so that the strap can be tightened or the effective length of the strap can be adjusted by virtue of the strap adjuster.[0005]The strap adjuster has a frame which has a substantially rectangular configuration. A support bar is formed in the frame in such a way as to con...
