  • Patent number: 12617370
    Abstract: A self-locking belt retractor comprising a belt shaft which is rotatably mounted in a frame, wherein a safety belt can be wound up said belt shaft, a blocking device which blocks the belt shaft if a predetermined feed-out acceleration of the safety belt in the feed-out direction of the safety belt is exceeded, and comprising a control disc device mounted on the belt shaft, the control disc device comprising a control disc and an inert mass which is mounted on the control disc so as to be pivotable about a pivot axis.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 12606123
    Abstract: A seatbelt retractor with a seatbelt shaft and a control cam mounted thereon, and an electrically actuatable blocking device, the electrically actuatable blocking device stopping the control cam with respect to the seatbelt shaft by engagement of the blocking lever into the toothing system of the control cam and, as a result, forcing a locking pawl to perform a movement, in which it passes for engagement into a toothing system, fixed to the vehicle, of the seatbelt retractor and blocks the seatbelt shaft in the pull-out direction, wherein—the blocking lever has a lever arm which projects outwards from the first limb and on which a first spring acts with a first end, which first spring preloads the blocking lever into a position in which it engages into the toothing system of the control cam with a blocking tip arranged at the end of a blocking arm.

  • Patent number: 10766452
    Abstract: A self-locking seat belt retractor includes a blocking system for a seat belt winding shaft that is actuated in an at least vehicle-sensitive manner, in which, in the event of triggering, a sensor mass mounted in a vehicle-sensitive manner moves a locking lever with its engagement tip into a trigger position in engagement with the toothing of a control disk, as the result of which the control disk in its joint rotational motion with the belt winding shaft is stopped and the blocking system is activated. The sensor mass is situated in a support part on a contact surface, and when vehicle accelerations occur the sensor mass in the support part is movable on the contact surface by inertial control from a neutral position into the trigger position. The support part together with the sensor mass situated therein is situated in a housing that includes the control disk.
