Abstract

A buckle device for luggage includes a male part connected to a belt on the luggage and a female part which is removably connected to a position member on the luggage. The female part has a hole and a recess respectively defined through a bottom plate thereof The recess is smaller than the hole. The position member has two flanges and the bottom plate is located between the two flanges. One of the flanges is larger than the recess and smaller than the hole. The buckle device is located transversely above a zipper device of the luggage. The zipper device is operated without separating the female part from the male part and simply disengaging the female part from the position member by allowing the flange passing through the hole.
