Abstract: A reversible belt and buckle which has a pivotable buckle frame portion finished on opposite sides so that it can be reversed to selectively display its outer and inner surfaces. A keeper member includes a locking lever with a latch to grip the inner end of a belt strap in a fixed position therein and a coupling portion which releasably retains the buckle frame in pivotable relation on the keeper.

Abstract: An anchorage device for a tension wire bundle of tension wires made of composite fibre materials, which are arranged in a plurality of layers. The tension wire layers are clamped between clamping plates non-slidable in the traction direction. The tension wire layer is clamped between two wedges slidable in the longitudinal direction. With this arrangement, the longitudinally slidable tension wire layer is clamped so that the tractive force acting in it is transmitted practically over its total circumference through the clamping elements to the wedges.
