Buckles for releasably connecting a first object and a second object. Example buckles may include a base including a first upstanding wall including a first boss extending therefrom and a second upstanding wall including a second boss extending therefrom. A housing may be mounted to a connector. The housing may include a hook section shaped to engage the first boss and the second boss and including a mouth for receiving the first boss and the second boss therethrough. A trigger may be configured to selectively obstruct the mouth. The trigger may include a first leg, a second leg, and one or more actuators operative to move the first leg and the second leg generally towards each other such that the first leg and the second leg may pass between the first boss and the second boss as the first boss and the second boss pass through the mouth.

1. A buckle for releasably connecting a first object and a second object, the buckle comprising: a hook section having a substantially J-shaped cross section and including a mouth, the hook section being associated with a first object;a trigger including two legs, the two legs partially obstructing the mouth, the two legs being movable within the mouth while still partially obstructing the mouth;a pair of bosses receivable within the hook section, the pair of bosses being associated with a second object; andan actuator associated with each of the two legs, the actuators being operative to move the two legs to selectively allow or obstruct passage of the pair of bosses through the mouth. 2. The buckle of claim 1, further comprising a housing attached to the hook section, the housing including a cavity receiving at least a portion of the trigger. 3. The buckle of claim 2, wherein the hook section is integrally formed with at least a portion of the housing. 4. The buckle of claim 2, further comprising a connector mounted to the housing generally opposite from the hook section, the connector configured for attachment to the first object. 5. The buckle of claim 1, wherein the pair of bosses are provided on a base, the base including a pair of upstanding walls, each of the pair of bosses being disposed on a respective one of the pair of upstanding walls. 6. The buckle of claim 5, wherein the pair of bosses are generally opposed and extend generally towards each other between the pair of upstanding walls. 7. A buckle for releasably connecting a first object and a second object, the buckle comprising: a base associated with a first object, the base including a first upstanding wall including a first boss extending therefrom, anda second upstanding wall including a second boss extending therefrom,wherein the first boss and the second boss generally oppose each other and extend generally towards each other between the first wall and the second wall;a connector associated with a second object;a housing mounted to the connector, the housing including a hook section shaped to engage the first boss and the second boss, the hook section including mouth for receiving the first boss and the second boss therethrough, anda trigger mounted to the housing and configured to selectively obstruct the mouth, the trigger including a first leg corresponding to the first boss,a second leg corresponding to the second boss, andat least one actuator operative to move the first leg and the second leg generally towards each other such that the first leg and the second leg may pass between the first boss and the second boss as the first boss and the second boss pass through the mouth. 8. The buckle of claim 7, wherein the base includes a mounting plate from which the first wall and the second wall extend, the base being mounted to the first object. 9. The buckle of claim 7, wherein the first boss and the second boss are substantially cylindrical. 10. The buckle of claim 7, wherein, when the hook section is engaged with the first boss and the second boss, the housing is pivotable with respect to the base about an axis extending through the first boss and the second boss. 11. The buckle of claim 7, wherein the trigger includes a head section; and wherein the first leg and the second leg are joined at the head section. 12. The buckle of claim 7, wherein the first leg includes a first end arranged to engage the first boss, the first end including a first sloped surface;wherein the second leg includes a second end arranged to engage the second boss, the second end including a second sloped surface;wherein contact between the first boss and the first sloped surface and contact between the second boss and the second sloped surface are operative to move the first end and the second end inward between the first boss and the second boss as the first boss and the second boss pass through the mouth. 13. The buckle of claim 7, wherein the at least one actuator includes a first actuator extending from the first leg and a second actuator extending from the second leg. 14. The buckle of claim 7, wherein the first actuator includes a first button and the second actuator includes a second button. 15. The buckle of claim 7, wherein the connector is mounted to the housing by a swivel connection. 16.
