  • Publication number: 20240309939
    Abstract: A rope buckle assembly includes a female buckle and a male buckle. The female buckle has an accommodating slot and a plurality of openings being in spatial communication with and respectively arranged at two opposite side of the accommodating slot. The accommodating slot has two guiding surfaces protruding from a slot bottom thereof.
