Claim Text:
1. A combination seat belt threader/automobile safety device comprising a shaft with a handle at one end and multiple tools attached to the shaft, including a seatbelt cutter, a hammer which also acts as a seatbelt threader; wherein the hammer is located on the top of the shaft at the end of the shaft opposite the handle; wherein the hammer comprises a pedestal and a head on top of the pedestal; wherein the pedestal extends out from the shaft of the combination seatbelt threader/automobile safety device such that the pedestal is exposed and not within the shaft; wherein the diameter of the pedestal is less than the maximum diameter of the head of the hammer; wherein the shape of the head is such that the head reaches a point at its apex, which is opposite the pedestal upon which the head is attached; wherein the head of the hammer is such that a hole in a seatbelt buckle fits over the head of the hammer, and because the diameter of the pedestal of the hammer is less than the maximum diameter of the head of the hammer, the seatbelt buckle does not easily slide off of the hammer, so the hammer also acts as the seatbelt threader; wherein the seatbelt cutter is located on the side of the shaft at the end of the shaft with the handle, between the handle and the end of the shaft; wherein the shape of the seatbelt cutter is a notch into the side of the shaft; wherein recessed into the notch in the shaft is a blade; and wherein the notch and blade are oriented in such a fashion so that when a seatbelt is inserted into the notch and a user pulls on the handle, the orientation of the notch facilitates the edge of the seatbelt coming into contact with the blade and the orientation of the blade facilitates the cutting of the seatbelt.
