Abstract: A belt connecting metal fitting for a seat belt device of a vehicle comprises a metal fitting plate body, and a belt insertion means formed as a slot formed to the metal fitting plate body through which a seat belt is inserted. The belt inserting slot is provided with bulged portions on both surfaces of the plate body so as to provide a thickened portion at least to an edge portion with which the belt is engaged to form a central belt insertion hole, the edge portion of the belt inserting slot having substantially circular curved cross section. A belt mounting hole is formed to the metal fitting plate body to secure the belt. At least the belt engaging portion of the metal fitting plate body is coated with a resin material formed through a resin molding process with the belt insertion hole remaining uncoated.

Abstract: A shoulder adjuster apparatus comprises an adjuster rail assembly attachable to and along an attaching portion of a vehicle body, and a slide garnish which covers a front surface side of the adjuster rail assembly. A slide assembly is slidably supported in a guide route formed within the adjuster rail assembly. A latch unit detachably latches the slide assembly at a predetermined position on the adjuster rail assembly. An operation mechanism releases the latch unit from a latched state. A webbing anchor unit is fixed on the slide assembly for supporting a webbing. The slide assembly is easily fixed with the slide garnish by a one-step snapping operation. In assembling the apparatus, the latch unit is mounted into a latch hole of the slide garnish. The operation mechanism is attached to a face side of the slide garnish, and a slide anchor base body is set to a back surface of the slide garnish.
