摘要:
An automatic latch device for a runner member used in an automatic seat belt system includes a restraining member movably mounted to the runner member and provided with a restraining portion for meshing with a brake member provided on a vehicle body. The restraining member is moved to a non-meshing position by a drive force of a driving member, which is operatively connected to the restraining member, for driving the runner member between a seat occupant restraining position and a seat occupant liberating position, whereby the coupling between the runner member and the brake member may be automatically released substantially simultaneously with the start of the driving of the driving member without needing to move the brake member.

A passive seat belt system includes a guide rail, a movable anchor, drive means for causing the anchor to travel along the rail, a base to be mounted on a vehicle body and equipped with plural interlocking portions arranged with a vertical interval when mounted on the vehicle body, and a support member displaceable between an engagement position, at which the member engages either one of the interlocking portions of the base so as to restrain an occupant with a webbing fastened to the anchor, and a non-engagement position. The member is composed of a single rod-like member which in the event of emergency, engages the anchor assuming the occupant-restraining position so as to transmit a load exerted on the anchor to the vehicle body by way of the base. The above system permits, with a relatively simple and compact structure, easy wearing and release of a webbing without need for occupant's hands and change of the holding position of the anchor depending on the physical constitution of the occupant.
