Title: Buckle device
Inventor: MUROMACHI TETSUSHI
IPC: A44B11/00
Filed: 2013-01-04
Abstract: Foreign objects that have entered inside an insertion body are suppressed from reaching a detector side. In a buckle device (10), when a tongue plate (16) is attached, an ejector slides downwards inside a buckle body, opening a through hole in a partitioning wall (26) of a lower cover (128) at the upper side. A main body portion of a slider member of a buckle switch is inserted into the through hole, closing off a portion of the through hole that has been opened by the ejector. Hence it is suppressed that foreign objects discharged through an insertion through hole in the buckle body to outside the buckle body pass through the through hole and reach the buckle switch side further than the partitioning wall.
