ABSTRACT:
A seatbelt buckle safety sheath to prevent the inadvertent releasing of the seatbelt buckle by young children. Specifically, the seatbelt buckle safety sheath is made of a resilient material and frictionally encompasses the female portion of the seatbelt buckle. The resilient material of the safety sheath imposes a compressive force substantially greater than the normal force required to release the seatbelt buckle from a fastened condition. Thus, an adult can compress the resilient material to activate the seatbelt buckle release button, while a child will be prevented from accomplishing same.
