AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing buckle device design poses a risk that the lock indicators become covered and difficult to see when used with a cover member attached, especially when the buckle device is integrated with a crotch webbing.

Method used

The buckle device features a recessed portion with a display window on the bottom wall, allowing indicators to be visible from the side where the tongue body is removed, and a movable button body that changes visibility of indicators based on engagement state, ensuring visibility even with a cover member attached.

Benefits of technology

The design ensures that lock indicators remain visible regardless of the presence of a cover member, enhancing usability and visibility of engagement states.
