Abstract
The disclosure herein describes a strap buckle which comprises a male elet and a female element, each having a strap engaging portion on one side thereof; the male element has a female engaging part on its opposite side which includes a T-shaped edge member and first locking members; the female element has a male engaging part on its opposite side and is formed of a housing having a shape corresponding to that of the T-shaped edge member, the housing including further locking members which are engageable with the locking members on the male element. To release the buckle, two operations are required: a first lateral movement which consists in forcing the female and male elements towards one another thereby applying pressure against the spring blade to free the interengaged locking members, and a second continuous movement which is normal to the first movement which consists in moving, parallel to and away from one another, the T-shaped member and the housing while maintaining pressure on the spring blade.
