Abstract
The present invention provides a child safety seat installed within a motor vehicle, including both upper portions of a harness web threaded through a pair of sleeves surrounding that portion of the web proximate a child's chest area. It is an object of this invention to eliminate the disadvantages of the harness webs, tangs and buckle, falling into the depression or concavity formed by the contours of the seat, interfering with placing a child within the seat. The upper portions of both webs are required to be connected laterally to offer protection against separation in the event of a sudden deceleration. The sleeves therefore include a latchable connector to selectively couple or uncouple one sleeve to another. A magnet is positioned upon each sleeve, and metallic strips embedded within the seat sides. Thereby when sleeves are in an uncoupled position, each sleeve may be repositioned and inverted toward an adjoining lateral seat edge, whereby the magnets and metallic strips are attracted and fasten in releasable attachment, by this means maintaining the web harness clear of the interior of the seat. A handle is provided attached to a lower buckle, providing a grasping and manipulating opportunity to store the buckle assembly outside an interference zone.
