DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

As shown in FIGS. 2 through 4, in a belt buckle of a static type safety belt of a construction equipment seat which includes a fixing part 1 installed at one side of a seat body 4, and a belt buckle 2 detachably engaged at the fixing part 1, there is provided a belt buckle holder of a static type safety belt of a construction equipment seat which comprises a pocket type holder 5 which is formed at a side surface of the seat body 4, with the belt buckle 2 separated from the fixing part 1 being detachably inserted and engaged at the pocket type holder.


The pocket type holder 5 may be provided at a front surface, back surface or side surface of the backrest 6 of the seat body 4. Preferably, the pocket type holder 5 is provided at a side surface of the backrest 6 so that a driver's hand can easily reach.


The pocket type holder 5 is finished with an inlet of the same being open so that the belt buckle 2 is inserted and stored when the backrest 6 of the seat body 4 is finished.


Since the static type safety belt, which includes a fixing part 1 installed at the seat body 4, and a belt buckle 2 detachably engaged at the fixing part 1, has the same construction as the static type safety belt of FIG. 1, the construction and operation of the same will be omitted. Here, the same reference elements are given the same reference numerals.


The use examples of the belt buckle holder of a static type safety belt of a construction equipment seat according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.


As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, when a driver leaves a driver's seat or a driver unbuckles a safety belt for taking a rest in a driver's cab without leaving a driver's seat, the belt buckle 2 separated from the fixing part 1 engaged at one side of the seat body 4 is inserted into the pocket type holder 5 formed at a side surface of the backrest 6.


When the belt buckle 2 separated from the fixing part 1 is placed on the consol box 3 or the control box 3a owing to a driver's carelessness behavior, the belt buckle 2 does not pressurize a certain button of the consol box 3 or the control box 3a for thereby preventing safety accident.


In addition, it is possible to prevent the belt buckle 2 separated from the fixing part 1 from being caught into a small gap formed between the consol box 3 and the control box 3a. With the above construction and operation, the driver can work in safe.


Since the construction of the console box 3 or the control box 3a is the same as that of FIG. 1, the descriptions of the same will be omitted.


As shown in FIG. 5, according to another embodiment of the present invention, in a belt buckle of a static type safety belt of a construction equipment seat which includes a fixing part 1 installed at one side of a seat body 4, and a belt buckle 2 detachably engaged at the fixing part 1, there is provided a belt buckle holder of a static type safety belt of a construction equipment seat which comprises a hook 7 which is engaged at a side surface of the backrest 6 of the seat body 4, with the belt buckle 2 separated from the fixing part 1 being detachably engaged with the hook 7. Here, the hook 7 may be provided at a front surface, back surface or side surface of the backrest 6 of the seat body 4. More preferably, the hook 7 is provided at a side surface of the backrest 6 so that a driver's hand can easily reach.


Here, the engaging shoulder 7a of the hook 7 is detachably engaged with the through groove 2a of the belt buckle 2.


Since the static type safety belt, which includes the fixing part 1, and the belt buckle 2 detachably engaged at the fixing part 1, has the same construction and operation as the static type safety belt of FIGS. 3 and 4, the description thereon will be omitted.


The use examples of the belt buckle holder of a static safety belt of a construction equipment seat according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.


As shown in FIG. 5, when a driver unbuckles a buckled safety belt so as to leave a driver's seat, the belt buckle 2 separated from the fixing part 1 is inserted into the hook 7 provided at one side of the backrest 6 and is stored. When the belt buckle 2 is inserted into the hook 7, the engaging shoulder 7a of the hook 2a is detachably locked into the through groove 2a formed at the belt buckle 2.


As described above, the belt buckle holder of a static type safety belt of a construction equipment seat according to the present invention has the following advantages.


When the static type safety belt is unbuckled, it is prevented from being contacted with a belt buckle and an operation button which is provided to operate the equipment, so that the equipment is prevented from operating irrespective of a driver's intention for thereby preventing safety accident.


In addition, the structure of the safety belt according to the present invention is not complicated, and the unit cost is low. A desired safe-related reliability is obtained. The safety belt according to the present invention may be used for various applications.


As the present invention may be embodied in several forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof, it should also be understood that the above-described examples are not limited by any of the details of the foregoing description, unless otherwise specified, but rather should be construed broadly within its spirit and scope as defined in the appended claims, and therefore all changes and modifications that fall within the meets and bounds of the claims, or equivalences of such meets and bounds are therefore intended to be embraced by the appended claims.
