    Abstract: In an assistant apparatus for fastening a webbing, which is adapted to move an intermediate portion of a webbing in the front direction of a vehicle for aiding an occupant of the vehicle in fastening the webbing around the occupant, a reach arm is provided which supports the webbing passing through the reach arm. The reach arm is capable of being swung in the front and rear directions of the vehicle and is always urged in the front direction by a return spring. The reach arm can be held in a rearward position by a cam engaging therewith, the cam being disengaged by a solenoid when the solenoid is energized. Therefore, a complicated gearing mechanism is unnecessary for driving the reach arm.
