Description

I have designed a belt lock safety device for (small) children and dogs. It prevents the button from being pressed with the fingers.

A spring ensures that it sits firmly on the buckle and makes no noise while driving.

Predetermined breaking points ensure that the lock can be broken in an emergency.
I have successfully tested it with PETG and PLA+.

To prevent scratches on the belt lock, it should be protected in advance with adhesive tape. Also on top of the button.

Please use the gadget with caution!
Only use with dogs or small children who are too young to unbuckle themselves in an emergency.
Use at your own risk!

I like this idea; I think it's a potentially useful safety improvement. To others who say "you should teach your children obedience," it's not always that simple. Good design.

Thank you, I'm glad to hear that. Young children always have these phases in which they simply don't listen to their parents and then deliberately test their limits. Of course, this gadget is not intended to be used for years, but rather in precisely these short phases.

@walbart1973

You should teach your children obedience and teach them to release the seat belts themselves. What you present is a life-threatening, useless gadget. Can you imagine a car accident and fire? How many people do you think can handle unfastening their seat belts? Not everyone carries a knife to cut belts... Don't brag to the world about this idea...

This is not my own invention. There are many similar variants freely available to buy. However, none of them has predetermined breaking points! I have therefore made an existing concept MUCH safer. There are many positive reviews of comparable products on Am****. It is also often used for disabled children or dogs. Please don't just see the bad!

@Dave8781

That's some ignorance there. My dogs undo their seatbelts all the time with their paws and that's dangerous. And if there were a fire or anything, you need to save your kids by going in the back seat, duh.
