Abstract

Embodiments of smart sliding buckles are provided. The embodiments relate to garment accessories, particularly bra buckles. It includes a hooking-prong and a loop-frame. The hooking-prong is a flattened hook. The loop-frame is V-shaped. The V-shaped loop-frame includes two bars. Lower ends of the bars of the V-shaped loop-frame are curvedly connected, forming an arc. Two upper ends of the V-shaped loop-frame connect to fixing rings that can be used to fix the loop-frame on a piece of garment, such as a bra. This V-shaped loop-frame decreases the precision requirement to secure a tie. It allows certain degree of position variation between the hooking-prong and the V-shaped loop-frame to form a tie. Therefore, the embodiments disclosed herein provide the same functions as traditional buckles, yet they provide additional ease of use.
