Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9111125A1] The belt lock described comprises a closure mechanism and at least one belt end (2) which can be inserted into the mechanism, the belt end having a tongue (4) designed to lock with the mechanism. The mechanism has a metal frame (7), a locking element (8) mounted in apertures (18) in the sides of the frame, an ejector (9) for the tongue, a locking-element support (10) and a belt-release button (11). In order to simplify the belt lock, reduce its manufacturing costs and increase its reliability, the locking element (8) is designed as a plate with a rear-located aperture (28), and the apertures (18) in the sides of the metal frame are designed as slots in which the locking element (8) can be mounted. The slots extend parallel to the direction of motion of the tongue (4) in the frame (7) and their size is such that the pins (19) of the locking element (8) are guided to move in the direction of motion of the tongue (4) substantially without any play at right angles to this direction. The web part (22) of the frame (7) has a stop (24) which defines the stop location of the locking element (8), and the locking-element support (10) is located behind the locking element and above the ejector (9) and can move at least substantially parallel to the direction of motion of the ejector (9).
