ABSTRACT:
A belt hook construction is provided for use with a buckle member of the class having a belt plate in which a belt hook is secured by the use of cast metal. An essential requirement is that the belt hook be held in a forwardly extended position without turning or tilting when subjected to pulling and twisting forces. Such forces develop in the wear of a belt of this class in a tightened position of adjustment. To prevent displacement by such forces, the belt hook of the invention is formed with a casting end having special anchoring means formed therein. The anchoring means are designed to project into solidified casting metal located therearound and to oppose forces acting to twist, tilt, or otherwise displace the hook from its secured position in the belt plate. The anchoring means includes ridges or rib formations arranged in angularly disposed relation to one another so as to provide greatly increased resistance to twisting and tilting forces. The invention further includes a novel method of forming a belt hook with the anchoring means described.
