Abstract: A seatbelt retractor having a switching device with a gas generator and a switch housing having a gas generator housing portion for accommodating the gas generator and a gas flow path that communicates with the gas generator housing portion so that gas generated by the gas generator passes through the gas flow path. Further, the gas generator housing portion and the gas flow path are formed in the switch housing in a curved shape, and a die-cut hole extending in a direction of the gas flow path on an opposite side of the gas flow path to the gas generator housing portion is blocked from the gas flow path by the gas generator.

Abstract: A buckle device 10 for a seat belt includes: an anchor plate 11 that can be attached to a vehicle body side; a buckle 20 to which a tongue of the seat belt can be detachably attached; and a woven fabric 30 that is passed through hole portions 14, 26 formed respectively in the anchor plate 11 and the buckle 20, the woven fabric 30 being folded back so as to overlap at least triply and being sewn together in the overlapping part. A tip end portion 31a of the woven fabric 30 tucked into the inner side contacts the opposing buckle 20.

Abstract: A seat belt device is provided with a pin for connecting a spindle and a tread head in an initial state. The breaking load of the pin is varied depending on the direction of relative rotation between the tread head and the spindle, such that the pin breaks at a smaller load during operation of a pretensioner. As a result, this allows firmly fixing together the spindle and the lock member during ordinary use without adversely affecting usability, and, upon vehicle collision or the like, the EA load is not affected through breaking of the pin at the smaller load.

Abstract: A keyboard having six keys. Characters are entered in two strokes. That is, the user selects a group including a desired character by the first stroke, and selects the desired character by the second stroke. On the key top, each key has legends of characters corresponding to key layout so that it is intuitively recognizable which keys the respective characters are assigned to after the group is selected. By means of such a keyboard, characters can be entered with the fewer keys. This facilitates key entry by touch typing.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method by which to obtain a MAC address of a communication party remotely across a router. In a network where an originating host and a destination host belong to different local areas, the originating host (10) transmits a request packet by which the originating host requests the destination host to send a GUID (Global Unique Identifier) of the destination host. In response to the request packet, the destination host (30) sends back a response packet in which the destination host has its own GUID contained therein. The originating host (10) acquires a GUID of destination host from the response packet. The originating host inquires of a database (62) that stores GUIDs and personal information in an associated manner, about the personal information associated with the acquired GUID.

Abstract: Provided is a seatbelt device capable of reliably securing and protecting a passenger. This seatbelt device has a first seatbelt tension increasing unit (9a) for increasing the tension of the seatbelt (4), and a second seatbelt tension increasing unit (9b, 20, 30) for increasing the tension of the seatbelt (4). When this seatbelt device judges that the collision of a vehicle is unavoidable, it operates the first seatbelt tension increasing unit (9a) before the collision and operates the second seatbelt tension increasing unit (9b, 20, 30) when it detects the collision of the vehicle. Thereby, the passenger is reliably secured to the seat and his/her safety is ensured.

Abstract: Provided is a seatbelt device capable of realizing a comfortable seatbelt-wearing environment as well as appropriately securing and protecting a passenger. The seatbelt device is further capable of realizing an immediate escape or rescue of a passenger after a vehicle accident, thereby providing extra safety and a swift escape by protracting the webbing in accordance with the state of the vehicle accident. This seatbelt device is provided with a retractor which uses a motor for retracting and protracting the webbing that secures a passenger to his/her seat, and a controller for rotating the motor and at least retracting the webbing. The controller is capable of altering the protraction mode of the webbing in accordance with the state of the webbing fastened by the passenger.

Abstract: In a through anchor (10), a webbing sliding contact surface (15) is formed by bending in a curved fashion a lower edge of an opening (14) formed in a metal insert (11) toward a side. The through anchor (10) is covered over portions of the metal insert (11) other than the webbing sliding contact surface (15) with a coating resin (13). Accordingly, it is possible to provide a seat belt assembly that can continue to provide good sliding contact between a webbing guide and webbing, with simple construction.
