  • Patent number: 3950826
    Abstract: A seat belt system is disclosed for mounting relative to the seat assembly of a vehicle which includes one or more harness restraint adjuster devices having retaining means including a pair of cooperating clamping members for engagement with opposite sides of the webbing belt. The clamping members are normally closed on the belt to anchor it in a fixed position, but manual release means allows for disengagement of the clamping members to vary the length of the seat belt system. The belt is free to move within the restraint adjuster in one direction without any need to utilize the release means, and the retaining means automatically reclamps itself against the belt when the adjustment is completed.Guide means including spaced apart fixed bearing surfaces are assembled to side members of the support means and are so located as to limit the forward translation of the clamping members while there is tension in the springs.
