  • BELT FITTING FOR A SAFETY BELT DEVICE
    Publication number: 20230072757
    Abstract: A belt fitting for a safety belt device, having a base section and a latch plate projecting from same. The base section has a belt eyelet with a belt strap running surface, which is in sliding contact with a belt strap guided through the belt eyelet when the safety belt is being worn, wherein, in the transverse direction of the belt strap, the belt strap running surface transitions on both sides at lateral corner regions into a belt eyelet edge opposite the belt strap running surface. The belt strap running surface has a surface contour which provides stable transverse guidance of the belt strap in the belt eyelet under loading conditions, which counteracts a transverse load component acting on the belt strap. A displacement body is formed on the belt eyelet edge-opposite the belt strap running surface, which reduces a gap width of the belt eyelet.
