Abstract

A buckle includes a tab having a first side opposed to a second side and a receiver having a first side opposed to a second side. A first pair of pawls is pivotally connected to the first side of the tab. A cavity is defined in the receiver between the first and second sides of the receiver and configured to receive the first and second sides of the tab. The first pair of pawls has a locked position in which the first pair of pawls is engaged with the receiver to prevent movement of the tab with respect to the receiver and a released position in which the first pair of pawls permits movement of the tab with respect to the receiver. A first button on the first side of the receiver has a released position that moves the first pair of pawls to the released position.
