Abstract: A safety seat for land vehicles, aircraft and watercraft, including a sitting portion secured to two vertical support straps attached to a vehicle and disposed in the vicinity of the rear edge of the sitting portion. Each support strap is a strap sling stretched between vertically spaced-apart anchors on the vehicle and includes a front strap facing the seating portion and a rear strap spaced therefrom. A transverse rod near the rear sitting portion edge reaches into the intermediate space between front and rear straps and is secured in closed fixed loops situated on the rear straps. The sitting portion is braced against the strap slings via supports pivotably connected to side rods of the sitting portion and extending at an angle below the sitting portion to the straps slings. The supports, via a transverse bracing disposed at their lower ends, reach into the intermediate space between front and rear straps.

Abstract: Safety seat for land vehicles, aircraft, and watercraft. A seat portion frame forms a seat portion, and a backrest frame, connected to the seat portion frame and disposed at an angle thereto, forms a backrest. Two vertical, vehicle-mounted retaining straps are disposed near the rear edge of the seat portion. Each retaining strap is a strap loop mounted between vehicle-mounted anchors that are spaced vertically apart. The strap loop has a front strap facing the safety seat, and a rear strap spaced from the front strap. The front and rear straps are respectively alternatingly guided over an upper cross member of the backrest frame and, in the region of the seat portion frame, a lower cross member of the backrest frame such that when the strap loop is tensioned, the front and rear straps clamp the upper and lower cross members between them. The backrest frame is suspended on at least one suspension strap secured to a further vehicle-mounted anchor above the safety seat.

Abstract: A safety seat for land vehicles, aircraft and watercraft. A support frame is fixed to the vehicle and is provided with at least two generally vertical support elements, each comprised of a spring element loosely positioned between a roof region and a floor of the vehicle and bendable transverse to its longitudinal direction under load. Opposite sides of a sitting portion are secured to one of the spring elements via respective support straps and suspension straps. One end of each support strap is attached to the sitting portion near the front edge and extends at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the spring element toward the roof portion. The other end of the support strap is attached to a securement device fixedly connected to the spring element. One end of each suspension strap is attached near the rear edge of the sitting portion.

Each support has a free end remote from the first end and suspended in a loop formed on the vertical support straps. To tensioning straps are disposed beneath the seat portion and extend along side edges thereof from a front securement and the seat portion to a connection with the vertical support straps. Each tensioning strap has a length less than the distance between the front securement and the rear end of the seat portion.

Abstract: A textile belt strap, especially for use in personnel safety devices in land vehicles, aircraft and watercraft. At least one seam is provided on the belt strap for representation of loading of the belt strap that occurs. The seam extends in a longitudinal direction of the belt strap over a portion thereof, and is comprised of an upper thread disposed on one side of the belt strap and a lower thread disposed on the other side of the belt strap. Respective transverse seams are fixedly connected with the belt strap for delimiting opposite ends of the seam. An interlocking of the upper thread and the louver thread is provided externally of the belt strap such that either the upper thread or the lower thread has a linear length or extension between the transverse seams that delimit the seam.

Abstract: A safety seat for vehicles, including a seat portion having a tubular frame for a textile sitting surface. The seat portion is secured to a strap framework secured to a vehicle via two vertical support straps. A shoulder harness secures an occupant and has two strap portions in the vicinity of the occupant's back, each strap portion extending vertically between a releasable securement on a vehicle roof and a rear end of the seat portion. The two strap portions are deflected at the rear end and are then guided in a crossed manner beneath the sitting surface of the seat portion to securements disposed near the front edge of the seat portion. The shoulder harness has two shoulder straps held on the strap portions and extending to releasable securements near the front edge of the seat portion. The shoulder straps have a releasable cross connection for their interconnection over an applicant's chest.

Abstract: A safety seat for land vehicles, aircraft or vessels, comprising a harness for suspension from fixed points of a vehicle and for supporting a vehicle occupant. Belt retractors are disposed at the fixed vehicle points, and fabric supporting belts extend from the harness to the retractors, which pretension the belts in a direction of retraction. A manually operable switching device allows the belt retractors to be switched into a free running state, a blocking state, or a positioning state. The free running state permits free withdrawal of the belts in a direction opposite to the pretension. The blocking state effects a complete blocking of the belts in both the withdrawal and the retraction directions. The positioning state effects blocking of the belts in only the withdrawal direction.

Abstract: A seat for a land vehicle, aircraft, or watercraft, comprising a textile seat portion having a seating surface and a backrest with a supporting structure for the seat portion configured as a support frame extending about the seat portion. The support frame is in the form of a textile strap guided through vehicle-mounted eye rings. Portions of the strap extend laterally of the seat portion in the form of diagonal strap portions that each extend between one of the eye rings mounted below the seating surface and one of the eye rings mounted above the backrest. The seat portion is displaceably disposed on the diagonal strap portions. At least one adjustment strap is guided from the backrest to a fixation mechanism disposed above the seat portion.

Abstract: A safety seat for land vehicles, aircraft and watercraft, including a seat portion, a backrest and side supports.
