Abstract: A reinforcing member (36) for a belt shaft (10) comprises an elongate central portion (46) and two hooking portions (48) provided at the ends of the central portion (46) adapted to be hung into a hooking slit of a belt shaft body (28) of a belt shaft (10), wherein the central portion (46) includes a retaining portion (50) adapted to be encompassed by the webbing (26) and a supporting portion (58) extending in the longitudinal direction (L) substantially over the entire central portion (46) and being offset relative to a plane (M) which is defined by the retaining portion (50), and wherein retaining lands (60) defining a passage window (62) for the webbing (26) extend between the supporting portion (58) and the retaining portion (50). The invention further provides a belt shaft (10) comprising a belt shaft body (28) as well as an end fitting tensioner (12).

Abstract: The invention relates to a pressure unit (64) for pressurizing a belt shaft (12) in a seat belt system comprising a screw (66) for fastening the pressure unit (64) to a frame (18) of the seat belt system, the screw (66) including a screw head (68) and a screw shank (70), wherein the pressure unit (64) comprises a fastening portion (72) having a screw hole (74) for inserting the screw shank (70), wherein radial play is provided between the screw hole (74) and the screw shank (70) and the fastening portion (72) on the screw head side includes mounting arms (76) for axially fixing the screw (66) in a pre-assembly position. Moreover, the invention also comprises an end fitting (11) of a seat belt system comprising such pressure unit (64).

Abstract: A tensioner (10) for a vehicle safety device is provided with a tubular casing (12) in which a piston (18) is movably supported as well as with a closure member (26) closing the tubular casing (12) on the front face and forming a cable guide (38) for a tensioning cable (28) which may be connected to a belt buckle or an end fitting (34) and in which cable guide the tensioning cable (28) is deflected in arc shape. Further, the tensioner (10) comprises an inflator (24) accommodated in the closure member (26), wherein the tubular casing (12) includes a receiving area (14) for receiving the closure member (26) as well as a fastening portion (16) serving for fastening the tensioner (10) to a vehicle frame.
