Abstract: A reversible seat belt tensioner including a rotationally operable plastic driven gear (1), and a drive moved with a belt shaft of the belt tensioner. At least one coupling pawl (4) is provided on the drive gear, engaging a gearing of the drive gear upon activation of the reversible belt tensioner, and in a load-transmitting position produces a linkage between the driven gear (1) and the drive gear. A support ring (3) made of a material having a greater strength than the driven gear (1) is provided and is connected to the driven gear (1) for with a projection (21, 22) which into a recess (15, 16) of the driven gear (1). The recess (15, 16) positioned such that the coupling pawl (4) is braced against the driven gear (1) via the projection (21, 22) which engages in the recess (15, 16).

Abstract: The invention relates to a belt retractor with an electromotive winding aid (4) comprising a belt shaft (1) which is pretensioned in the winding-up direction by a spring and is mounted rotatably in a frame (3) of the belt retractor on which a belt strap (2) can be wound up. The electromotive winding aid (4) can be activated as a function of the belt-strap-retraction speed (BRS).

Abstract: A reversible seat belt retractor including an electric motor (2), a belt shaft (1) on which a seatbelt is windable, a drive wheel (10) disposed coaxial to the belt shaft (1), and a coupling (11) provided between the belt shaft (1) and the drive wheel (10). The electric motor (2) includes an extended drive shaft (12), via which the electric motor (2) is in direct driving connection with the drive wheel (10).
