  • Patent number: 7131669
    Abstract: In a vehicle, a seatbelt extracted from a retractor is extended to and suspended by a webbing guide portion of a first rod, folded back in a predetermined direction by the webbing guide portion, and extended from a belt drawing-out portion. A load applied to the webbing guide portion when the seatbelt contacts it is dispersed by the first rod and one or more additional rods to prevent the load from concentrating at a portion of a body of the vehicle where the first rod is attached. As a result, it is not necessary to provide a large bracket for attaching the first rod to the vehicle body. With this arrangement, the weight and the cost of parts can be reduced while securing the strength thereof and realizing a belt folding-back function, and further a degree of design freedom of the layout can be improved.

  • Patent number: 7093896
    Abstract: A raised portion of a seat cushion is formed by attaching a sub-cushion portion including a pair of notches formed so as to allow a pair of connectors to pass therethrough to a seat cushion pad. In the state where the sub-cushion portion is attached to the seat cushion pad, a pair of through holes, through which the pair of connectors provided for a child safety seat inserted from the front face of the vehicle seat can pass to project from the back face of the vehicle seat, are formed. At the same time, fixation anchors, to which the connectors projecting from the through holes are connected, are provided on axes of the through holes. Thus, a vehicle seat is provided, in which the workability at the installation of the child safety seat can be improved even for the vehicle seat including the seat cushion with a raised rear end.

    Abstract: A seatbelt extracted from a retractor is extended to and suspended by a webbing guide portion of a main rod, folded back in a predetermined direction by the webbing guide portion, and extended from a belt drawing-out portion. A load applied to the webbing guide portion when the seatbelt contacts it is dispersed by a plurality of rods to prevent the load from concentrating to the portion where the main rod is attached to a vehicle body, and thus it is not necessary to provide a large bracket for attaching the main rod to the vehicle body. With the above arrangement, the weight and the cost of parts can be reduced while securing the strength thereof and realizing a belt folding-back function, and further a degree of design freedom of the layout can be improved.
