Fastening device
First Claim
1. A fastening device comprising:
- a first component being a female component and a second component being a male component, each component being adapted for attachment to a back panel, wing or strap of a garment,wherein the first component comprises;
a plastic first plate which has an inner side and an outer side;
wherein the second component comprises a plastic second plate which has an inner side and an outer side adapted to at least partially overlie the outer side of the first plate in use;
wherein the first plate is formed with a plurality of connecting recesses, andwherein the inner side of the second plate is formed with at least one connecting protrusion adapted to be releasably received and retained selectively in at least some of the connecting recesses of the first plate; and
wherein the second plate is formed with a resilient nose which is inclined downwardly in the direction from its outer side toward its inner side and is deflected upwardly when the components are coupled together to bear resiliently against the outer side of the first plate.

Abstract
A fastening device includes a first female component and a second male component, each component adapted for attachment to a back panel, wing or strap of a garment or the like, the first component includes a plastic first plate having an inner side and an outer side. The second component includes a second plastic plate having an inner side and an outer side adapted to at least partially overlie the outer side of the first plate in use. The first plate is formed with a plurality of connecting recesses and the inner side of the second plate is formed with at least one connecting protrusion adapted to be releasably received and retained selectively in any one of the connecting recesses. The second plate is formed with a resilient nose inclined downwardly in the direction from its outer side towards its inner side and is deflected upwardly when the components are coupled together to bear resiliently against the outer side of the first plate.
