Abstract: A reduction in the durability of a coupling member coupled to a buckle is suppressed. A lift-up buckle device includes a buckle that engages with a tongue inserted through webbing worn by an occupant, and wires that each have a portion fixed to the buckle and that are displaced to move the buckle. The lift-up buckle device also includes a wire guide that includes a guide groove that guides the wires, and a soft lower cover that engages with the wire guide and covers the wires. A dimension of an end portion on the buckle side of the guide groove is set so as to increase on progression toward the buckle side.

Abstract: In a webbing take-up device, a cover member is disposed on the inner side of a second peripheral wall of a second housing member. Due thereto, an outer side surface of a third peripheral wall of the cover member and an inner side surface of the second peripheral wall of the second housing member oppose each other in a radial direction of urging, which is a radial direction of rotation of rotational urging force of a flat spiral spring, so displacement of the cover member outward in the radial direction of urging can be suppressed.

Abstract: In a seatbelt device, when paying out webbing from a spool of a webbing take-up device to fit the webbing over the body of an occupant, drive of a first motor of the webbing take-up device is controlled based on the magnitude of a signal level of a load detection signal output by a load sensor according to the physical build of the occupant, and pulse data stored in a storage unit corresponding to each signal level of the load detection signal.

Abstract: There is provided a seat belt retrieval control device including: a drive unit that drives a retrieval of a webbing; and a setting unit that is configured to, when a vehicle attitude is being controlled by an attitude control unit that controls a vehicle attitude, set a retrieval load applied by the drive unit to a predetermined first load, and when the vehicle attitude is not being controlled by the attitude control unit, set the retrieval load to a second load that is greater than the first load.

Abstract: A webbing take-up device includes a spool that is rotated in a take-up direction to take up webbing worn by an occupant and that is rotated in a pull-out direction by the webbing being pulled out, and a frame that rotatably supports the spool. The frame includes a fixed stay portion that is fixed to a vehicle body, and a rotation stop stay portion that is disposed spaced apart from the vehicle body and that by being engaged with the vehicle body is restricted from rotational displacement relative to the fixed stay portion.

Abstract: Load input to an occupant from a buckle is reduced. A lift-up buckle device includes a buckle that engages with a tongue inserted through webbing worn by an occupant. The lift-up buckle device also includes wires that each include a portion configuring a first fixed portion fixed to the buckle side and another portion configuring a supported portion supported by a wire guide, and that move the buckle due to a distance between the fixed portions and the supported portions being changed. Respective locations between the fixed portions and the supported portions of the wires are displaced in a direction intersecting an engaged direction of the tongue when an external force in a direction of the engaged direction of the tongue has been input to the buckle.

Abstract: A webbing take-up device that includes: a cut-off section that cuts off transmission of rotation load along a rotation force transmission route from a second rotation force transmission mechanism to a spool via a first rotation force transmission mechanism due to the rotation load in a pull-out direction becoming a predetermined value or greater; and a resistance section that resists the rotation load during transmission of the rotation load, and that suppresses transmission of the rotation load along the rotation force transmission route in a case in which the rotation load is less than the predetermined value.

Abstract: A webbing take-up device includes clutch weights. The clutch weights are supported at the base and include engaging portions. The clutch weights move to a rotation diameter direction outer side when the base is rotated, and are capable of transmitting rotary force applied to the base to the spool. The webbing take-up device is provided with a stopper that is capable of relative rotating relative to the base and that is provided with engaged holes, each including an allowing portion and a restricting portion. The allowing portions allow movement of the engaging portions to the rotation diameter direction outer side when the base is rotating to one side. The restricting portions restrict movement of the engaging portions to the rotation diameter direction outer side when the base is rotating to the other side. The restricting portions are formed integrally with the allowing portions.

Abstract: A webbing take-up device includes a second clutch that transmits rotation of a motor to a spool. The second clutch includes a base including a first spring catch portion, a clutch gear, a clutch spring including a coil portion, having an end portion at one side caught to the first spring catch portion, and a lever that includes a second spring catch portion catching an end portion at another side of the clutch spring, and that enlarges diameter of the coil portion to abut the clutch gear by moving the end portion at the another side of the clutch spring toward one side in the circumferential direction of the base. A terminal end of the end portion at the one side of the clutch spring abuts the first spring catch portion when the lever is rotated toward the one side in the circumferential direction of the base.

Abstract: A webbing take-up device includes a spool that takes up webbing worn by an occupant, an input gear that is rotated by rotation force being transmitted, a spool gear that rotates the spool by being rotated, and a second clutch that is provided between the input gear and the spool gear, and that transmits rotation force of the input gear to the spool gear by being rotated by the input gear. The webbing take-up device further includes a sub clutch spring that is provided between the input gear and the second clutch, that transmits rotation force of the input gear to the second clutch when the input gear is rotated toward one side, and that shuts off transmission of rotation force of the input gear to the second clutch when the input gear is rotated toward another side.

Abstract: In a seat belt device, when a buckle cover is moved obliquely upward in a vehicle forward direction relative to a buckle guide and the buckle cover reaches a moving endpoint at a vehicle upper side relative to the buckle guide, cover-side engagement portions of the buckle cover become sandwiched between vehicle lower side surfaces of guide-side engagement portions of the buckle guide, and the outside surfaces of guide long-side wall portions of the buckle guide. Due to this, not only movement of the cover-side engagement portions of the buckle cover in the vehicle upward direction but also movement of the cover-side engagement portions outwards in the thickness directions of the cross-sectional shapes of the buckle cover and the buckle guide are restrained by the guide-side engagement portions.

Abstract: In a lift-up buckle device, a slider and a shoe move forward and a buckle is moved to a stowed position. The shoe impacts against a protruding portion at a lower portion of a damper and interferes with a housing via the lower portion of the damper. Thus, the forward movement of the slider and shoe is stopped, while the damper absorbs an impact against the slider and shoe. Therefore, an amount of the impact against the slider and shoe that is absorbed by the damper may be increased by the protruding portion, and the damper may absorb the impact against the slider and shoe effectively.

Abstract: A lift-up buckle device has a buckle with which is engaged a tongue through which a webbing, which is applied to a vehicle occupant, is inserted; wires that are made of metal, and whose longitudinal direction one end portions are fixed to the buckle, and that move together with the buckle; a driving portion that is connected to longitudinal direction other end portions of the wires, and that move the wires in a longitudinal direction; a wire guide that is made of metal and holds the wires in a curved state; a guide groove that is formed in the wire guide and in which the wires are inserted; and a resin member that is provided at an interior of the guide groove and abuts the wires.

Abstract: In a lift-up buckle device, a slider and a shoe are provided at a seatbelt device. The slider and the shoe are moved by a drive screw that is driven by an output shaft of a motor. Here, a buffering body is provided at the output shaft, and concave portions are formed at corner portions of an inserted-into portion. Therefore, projecting portions which project-out into the inserted-into portion being formed at the corner portions of the inserted-into portion when the buffering body is molded can be suppressed, and corner portions of the output shaft interfering with the projecting portions can be suppressed. Accordingly, because rattling of the output shaft within the inserted-into portion can be suppressed, operating noise can be reduced.

The webbing take-up device further includes a second transmission mechanism that includes an A-gear fixed to the rotation shaft, and a B-gear meshed together with the A-gear and rotated by the A-gear being rotated toward one side together with the rotation shaft such that the spool is rotated. A helix angle of respective outer teeth of the A-gear is set such that an axial direction force toward the one axial direction side of the rotation shaft acts on the A-gear when the rotation shaft is rotated toward the one side.

Abstract: In a webbing take-up device, an angle from one end portion toward another end portion of a second clutch spring in a direction of winding of a coil portion from the one end portion toward the another end portion of the second clutch spring is 270°. Therefore, in a case in which the one end portion of the second clutch spring is rotated toward a side of the direction of the winding of the coil portion, one end side portion of the second clutch spring is displaced so as to bulge-out toward a side opposite to a side toward which another end side portion bulges-out.

Abstract: In a buckle device, cord portions that are pulled out from a distal end portion in a longitudinal direction of a helical portion of a curl cord are electrically and mechanically connected to a terminal of a buckle switch of a buckle. The distal end portion in the longitudinal direction of the helical portion of the curl cord is held by a holding bracket that is provided at a first cover component of a buckle cover. Consequently, even when the buckle cover is moved, excellent connections can still be maintained between the cord portions of the curl cord and the terminal of the buckle switch of the buckle.
