Abstract

A clasp includes a bar lock and two insert locks arranged adjacent thereto. The bar lock includes upper and lower generally horizontal frame members and two mutually parallel and generally vertical side frame members, and a bar having ends which are shape-bound connected for movement of the bar along respective side members. Each of the insert locks includes an insert tongue and a tongue-receiving sleeve having a through-penetrating opening in one main wall of the sleeve. The sleeves are attached to the upper of the two generally horizontal frame members. The insertion directions of the sleeves converge towards the longitudinal center region of the upper bar-lock frame part. The clasp finds use in enabling adjustments to be made to a lower belt-like end-part of a carrier piece of a baby's carrier which comprises generally two closed strap loops which are mutually fastened on the rear side of the carrying person. The front side of the strap loops carry the latching tongues of the insert locks. The two side-edge parts of the carrier piece are connected to upper fastener points on respective loops by means of releasible connections.
