A telescoping seat belt device comprising: a support (42,142); and a buckle plate (70) for supporting a seat belt buckle; and a pivoting and sliding mechanism (50, 90; 150, 190) for telescopically moving the buckle plate and a buckle from an extended position to a stowed position. The mechanism includes an activation bar (50) rotationally mounted on the support (42) and a slide link (60) pivotally supported at one end on the first pivot (52); a second link (90) rotatably secured to the second pivot (94), wherein the buckle plate is slidable on the slide link (60) from a first position to a second position, and wherein the second link (90) is connected to the buckle plate (70) such that the buckle plate moves on the slide link (60) in response to the movement of the second link. A first spring (58) joins the activator bar and the second link coupling the motion of the activator bar (50) to the second link such that in response to the movement of the activator bar the first spring urges the second link to rotate towards the first pivot such motion causing the buckle plate (70) to slide toward the second position along the slide link, wherein as the buckle plate moves toward the second position the slide link is caused to rotate toward the second pivot carrying the buckle plate with it and moving the buckle to the stowed position.
