Abstract: Apparatus for detecting a proper wearing status of a safety belt of a safety belt assembly in a motor vehicle includes a sensor device which is at least partially disposed in or on the safety belt and configured to output a sensor value as a function of a dependency on a disposition of the safety belt. An evaluation device determines in response to the sensor value output by the sensor device, whether an occupant of the motor vehicle properly wears the safety belt.

Abstract: An apparatus for proper application of a seat belt in a vehicle. The apparatus includes the seat belt and a seat belt buckle which is assigned to it and which is provided with a measuring device, arranged for measuring a tensile force exerted on the seat belt buckle. The apparatus further relates to an evaluation device for evaluating the measured tensile force. At the same time, it is provided that the apparatus is also equipped with a tightening device for applying a tightening force to the seat belt, as well as with a detection device for detecting the applied tightening force. The evaluation device compares the tensile force to the tightening force and determines based on a corresponding comparison result whether the seat belt has been properly placed and secured in the seat belt buckle.
