Abstract
A buckle assembly composed of three components, i.e. a retainer base, a plug and a socket for releasably connecting three belts or straps. The retainer base has an aperture for receiving therein an upstanding generally C-shaped locking lug to connect the retainer base and the socket. The plug is slidably mounted on the retainer base and having a pair of resilient legs snappingly engageable with the locking lug to releasably couple the retainer base and the socket. With this construction, the buckle assembly can be assembled easily without a tedious and time consuming positional adjustment between the plug and the socket. The snap-fit between the resilient legs and the locking lug insures a firm coupling engagement between the retainer base and the socket.
