ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for securing a connector to fabric is disclosed. The connectors are used connect the opposite ends of a fabric belt so as form an endless belt. The connectors are initially in the shape of a V, with legs of unequal lengths. Each leg has an inwardly projecting tip oriented at an accute angle to its respective leg. The connector is secured to the fabric by placing the fabric between the legs and bending them inwardly so that the tips penatrate into the flat woven fabric, thereby securing the connector to it. When the connector is secured to an end of the fabric belt, the apex of the V-shaped connector forms a rounded loop which may then be used to connect it to the opposite end of the fabric belt. The present invention has a pair of primary jaws which press against and actuate a pair of secondary jaws. The connector is secured between the secondary jaws which press against the connector and bend it into the fabric.
