Abstract: A seat belt arrangement for a motor vehicle, with at least one seat belt for the protection of a vehicle occupant seated on a vehicle seat; at least one inflatable gas bag arranged on the seat belt for protecting the vehicle occupant. The gas bag includes a passage through which the seat belt extends and to which at least one inflatable chamber of the gas bag adjoins, wherein during or after inflation of the gas bag at least a sub-section of a wall of the passage presses indirectly and/or directly against the seat belt such that the gas bag couples to the seat belt and follows an extension movement of the seat belt and hence a movement of the vehicle occupant, and wherein the seat belt is at least partly surrounded by a casing element at least within the passage.

The electronic control unit is arranged in the steering wheel.

Abstract: The disclosed safety device for a motor vehicle seat may include a seat surface extending in a longitudinal direction of the seat, a securing element assigned to the seat surface; and an adjustment device operatively connected to the securing element for adjusting the securing element from a reclining position into a securing position in an event of a crash. The adjustment device is configured to reset the securing element from the securing position into the reclining position. The securing element is configured to act on the seat surface in the securing position such that the seat surface and the securing element counteract forward movement of a pelvic area of a person sitting on the seat surface in the longitudinal direction of the seat, without changing a spatial location of said seat surface.
