  • Deflection fitting for a safety belt
    Patent number: 7192057
    Abstract: A deflection fitting for a safety belt includes a carrier plate (10) having an installation opening (18) and an eye (20) for the safety belt to pass through. The deflection fitting further includes a covering (12) of plastic, adapted to the installation situation of the deflection fitting, to form an edge for the carrier plate (10). The deflection fitting further includes an adapter (14) of plastic having a collar portion (28) inserted into the installation opening (18) and a delimiting portion (30) inserted into the eye (20). The covering (12) is constructed as a component made of a single piece, which surrounds the lower and the lateral outer edge regions of the carrier plate (10).

  • Deflection device for a safety belt
    Publication number: 20060232056
    Abstract: A deflection device for a safety belt comprises a deflection part (10) having a mounting opening (16) and an eye (18) for the safety belt to be passed through. The deflection device further comprises a covering surrounding at least lower and lateral outer edge regions of the deflection part (10). The deflection device further comprises an adapter having a collar section (24), which is inserted into the mounting opening (16) of the deflection part (10), and a boundary section (26), which is inserted into the eye (18). The covering and the adapter are constructed as a plastic part (12) in a single piece. The plastic part (12) is adapted to the installation surrounding of the deflection device.
