Abstract
A seat belt buckle for use with a tongue of a seat belt includes a latch that engages the tongue, and a release bar that releases the latch. An inertia locking device mounted to a frame portion is normally biased in an unlocking position and rotates to a locking position to prevent movement of the release bar into the release position when the seat belt buckle is subjected to a force greater than the biasing force.
