  • Patent number: 4087059
    Abstract: A band reel device for safety belts for vehicles provided with a locking mechanism which becomes activated when the safety belt connected to the reel is rapidly pulled out from the reel and an adjustably mounted body of inertia operatively connected to the locking mechanism for actuating the locking mechanism when there is an abnormal change of movement of the vehicle carrying the band reel device.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 2, 1975
    Date of Patent: May 2, 1978
    Inventor: Oskar Lennart Lindblad
  • Patent number: 4047267
    Abstract: A vehicle safety belt connector has a tonque-shaped male member attached to the safety belt and having a notch in an edge thereof and a female member attachable to the vehicle. The female member has a pair of flat parallel walls with locking of the male member to the female member being effected by means of a pair of pins transversely movable in opposed slots extending inwards from the edges of the flat walls so that each of the pins, in their inner positions, engages one of the notches. A manually operable cam member serves to operate the pins.

  • Patent number: 4033594
    Abstract: A deflection device for a safety belt in a vehicle with a support for connection to the side of the vehicle, a deflection bar pivotal relative to the support and a safety belt holder supported in spaced relationship to the reflection bar, and a pivot arrangement between the holder and the deflection bar such that upon pivoting of the holder the deflection bar pivots in the same direction but to a lesser extent than the holder.

  • Patent number: 4025992
    Abstract: A receiving part for the coupling tongue of a vehicle safety belt with two spaced guides plates, a locking body for locking the tongue within the guide plate and being movable in a direction transverse to the guide plate, a lever-shaped lifting element located in the receiving part and cooperating with the locking body and being passed thereagainst by a spring. The lifting element has a projection with an oblique surface located in the path of insertion of the coupling tongue in front of the locking body so that upon insertion of the tongue into the receiving part the tongue lifts the oblique surface and projection and thereby the locking body against the spring out of the path of insertion of the coupling tongue.

  • Patent number: 4009510
    Abstract: Deflection device for a safety belt with a bar around which the safety belt passes, a pivotable arm in which the bar can slide in a direction transverse to the longitudinal extension of the belt and a stop for the bar, the arrangement being such that the belt can normally pass freely around the bar from the belt collector but that the belt becomes clamped between the bar and the stop when subjected to abnormal forces, such as a collision or extreme deceleration.

  • Patent number: 3967510
    Abstract: An actuation device for use in connection with safety belts for vehicles includes a body of inertia sensing acceleration and/or retardation and positioned between a frame and a transmission element, which is movable away from and in a direction towards the frame. The body forms part of a spacer element assembly extending between the frame and the transmission element. The ends of the spacer element assembly pivotably bear against the transmission element and the frame. The spacer element assembly comprises at least two parts which, actuated by the body of inertia, can perform toggle-joint-like pivoting movement relative to each other.
