Abstract
An anti-slip harness buckle element has a planar body portion with a plurality of slots formed therein. A biased, U-shaped, friction generating member is carried in one of the slots and slidably engages same. A portion of a support strap, or webbing extends through at least two of the slots of the buckle element and is in part forced toward an edge of one of the slots by the U-shaped, friction generating member thereby crating locking friction relative two the webbing to prevent slippage thereof.

17. A method of forming an anti-slip harness buckle comprising:
-
providing a multi-slotted planar, buckle member; providing an elliptically shaped planar, locking member; bending a first portion of the planar locking member along a region parallel to a major axis thereof; inserting the bent elliptically shaped locking member into one of the slots; inserting a spring into the slot; and bending a second portion of the locking member along a region parallel to the major axis to form a biased sleeve having a U-shaped cross-section. - View Dependent Claims (18)
