the present invention provides a child safety seat installed within a motor vehicle , including both upper portions of a harness web threaded through a pair of sleeves surrounding that portion of the web proximate a child &# 39 ; s chest area . it is an object of this invention to eliminate the disadvantages of the harness webs , tangs and buckle , falling into the depression or concavity formed by the contours of the seat , interfering with placing a child within the seat . the upper portions of both webs are required to be connected laterally to offer protection against separation in the event of a sudden deceleration . the sleeves therefore include a latchable connector to selectively couple or uncouple one sleeve to another . a magnet is positioned upon each sleeve , and metallic strips embedded within the seat sides . thereby when sleeves are in an uncoupled position , each sleeve may be repositioned and inverted toward an adjoining lateral seat edge , whereby the magnets and metallic strips are attracted and fasten in releasable attachment , by this means maintaining the web harness clear of the interior of the seat . a handle is provided attached to a lower buckle , providing a grasping and manipulating opportunity to store the buckle assembly outside an interference zone .
