ABSTRACT:
A tethering device for securing a child safety seat to an automobile seat with an automobile seatbelt. The tethering device has a cap, a base, and a wedging mechanism rotatably mounted to the base such that a wedging portion extending upwardly from the base towards the cap will move from a passive position that does not positively grip a seatbelt to a second active-locked position which does positively grip the seatbelt between a wedging surface of the wedging portion and an inside surface of the cap. The tethering devices are secured to each side of the child safety seat at a generally 45 degree angle to the base of the child safety seat.
