Abstract: A seatbelt buckle device includes a buckle switch (40) having a switch substrate (42) and a slider part (50) which slides on the switch substrate (42) and a frame (20) which has a substantially U-shaped section and slidably holds an ejector (30) which operates synchronously with attachment/detachment of a tongue plate (1). The buckle switch (40) and the frame (20) are assembled integrally with each other as the a leg part (43) as a rear end of the switch substrate (42) is fixed to a side wall (22A) of the frame (20) through a switch substrate housing (45) and thus supported by the frame (20).

Abstract: A seat belt buckle device in which the jumping or roll-over height of a counterweight is decreased allowing the seat belt buckle device to be reduced in size. The seat belt buckle device includes an outer case into which a tongue plate is inserted, a latch member that latches the tongue plate, a slideable release button, and a counterweight that resists sliding of the release button. The counterweight includes a shaft that engages a bearing groove formed in the release button and receives the force that rotates the counterweight due to the sliding of the release button. The rotating shaft has a recessed portion in its outer circumferential surface with this portion being configured to come into contact with the bearing groove of the release button when the release button slides into the outer case.
