Patent number: 5860706Abstract: The stiffness of a buckle holder made of a reinforced belt strap for a seat belt in a motor vehicle by means of which the buckle is supported in an upwardly projecting manner at a distance from its fastening point close to the vehicle floor is achieved by means of an additional, inherently stiff strip which is fixed on the belt strap and which still permits a yielding at least in a transverse direction. The strip is sewn to the belt strap by means of several seams which are situated relatively closely side-by-side, in which case the close course of the sewn seam contributes to the increase of the stiffness of the buckle holder.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 1996Date of Patent: January 19, 1999Assignee: Micro Compact Car AktiengesellschaftInventor: Joachim Fausel

Patent number: 5806916Abstract: Known cross members consisting of an alloy press-drawn section do not permit easy assembly of the passenger airbag module or other bolt-on parts after the cross members have been installed. Accordingly, the press-drawn section of the cross member is provided with at least one groove open at the top in such fashion that a rib or a bar of a bolt-on part can be added from above such that simple pivoting enables a seating surface of the cross member to cooperate with a mounting surface of the bolt-on part in the installed state. Assembly is extremely simple. The cross members are used for the instrument panels of motor vehicles.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 1996Date of Patent: September 15, 1998Assignees: Mercedes-Benz AG, MC Micro Compact Car Aktiengesellschaft, Petri AktiengesellschaftInventors: Michael Sinner, Martin Kruse, Bernhard Holzapfel, Ulrich Schick, Stefan Reh
