  • Patent number: 4492007
    Abstract: The invention comprises safety belt fastening means of the type having a locking tongue slideably engageable with a locking device. The locking device includes a locking flap releaseably engageable with the tongue, and release means for lifting and releasing the flap from engagement with the tongue; according to the invention, blocking means are provided which retain the locking flap in a raised position when the belt is unfastened, which resist initial releasing action to increase the necessary force for unfastening the belt, and which urge the locking flap into close engagement with the tongue on fastening the seat belt. The blocking means includes a blocking flap which coacts with the locking flap, and biasing means acting on the blocking and locking flaps.

  • Patent number: 4035595
    Abstract: The invention relates to a locking device for safety belts of the type having a switch assembly where the belt is passed downwardly over a locking bar for locking and where the locking bar, on activation of a releaser is tipped upwardly. The locking device is connected to an electric signal circuit which gives a warning signal if the safety belt is not employed. The electric connection for the signal circuit is arranged on the locking device. The circuit is connected when the locking bar is open, and broken when the locking bar is pressed down. The locking bar forms in the downward position an electrically conductive connection to a contact point, and the connection is broken when the safety belt is placed around the locking bar.
