Abstract
A seat belt restraint lock for children is disclosed, comprised of an improved female receptacle for a motor vehicle seat belt buckle. The female receptacle consists of a main body, of a generally rectangular, box configuration. A plate located on the top surface of the main body covers the traditional release button. The plate can only be opened by compressing two locking cylinders located on the lateral sides of the main body. The locking cylinders possess spring tension to ensure that a child cannot open the plate.
