摘要:
An automatic seat belt apparatus capable of automatically applying a webbing around an occupant of a vehicle. This seat belt apparatus has a reinforcement member which is disposed near the end of a guide rail along which a slider is guided, the slider being accommodated in the reinforcement at the stroke end. The apparatus also has a holder at which a limit switch for detecting the stroke end of the slider is attached and which covers the reinforcement member, and an anchor pin for supporting a load caused at the time of an emergency, the holder and the anchor pin encircling the reinforcement member. The position of the anchor pin varies in accordance with the adjustment of the stroke end of the slider so as to constantly correspond to that of the slider while the webbing is being fitted around the occupant's body. At the time of an emergency, the tensile force of the webbing is positively transmitted to the body of the vehicle via the anchor pin, the holder and the reinforcement member.

A lock mechanism for a webbing retractor prevents an occupant restraining webbing from being wound off from a webbing takeup shaft when a vehicular emergency occurs. The lock mechanism is provided with a member to which the rotational force of the takeup shaft is transmitted through frictional contact and which cancels the locked state of the lock mechanism when the takeup shaft rotates in the webbing wind-up direction. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the webbing from being gradually wound up when the vehicle is running thus avoiding any possibility of causing the webbing to undesirably tighten against the body of the occupant.
摘要:
An apparatus for adjusting the position of a seatbelt webbing fastened to the body of an occupant at which it is retained by the body of a vehicle has a base member secured to the vehicle body, a main shaft rotatably supported by the base member and having an external thread formed on the outer periphery thereof, and a subsidiary shaft secured to the base member and extending parallel to the main shaft. A movable member is thread-engaged with the external thread of the main shaft and slidably fitted on the subsidiary shaft, whereby, as the main shaft rotates, the movable member is prevented from rotating by the connection with the subsidiary shaft but moves along the main and subsidiary shafts through the thread engagement with the main shaft. A guide member which retains the webbing is secured to the movable member. Thus, the position of the webbing at which it is retained by the vehicle body is adjusted.
