ABSTRACT:
A buckle assembly includes a main frame which is generally U-shaped and has a pair of parallel opposing side plates and a bottom formed by a plurality of cross-bars. Pivotally mounted on the main frame is a strap-tightening handle which is utilized to tighten a strap and to retain it in the tightened position. This handle includes a tightening cross-bar around which the strap is looped, and the two opposite ends of such strap then run under one of the cross-bars of the main frame. A limit stop member is provided in at least one of the side arms of the frame to limit the downward travel of the handle in its strap-tightening position. This assembly is further adapted to be locked in position in conjunction with a security locking device such as a padlock.
