Abstract: A device for adjusting height of a shoulder anchor that forms a seat belt device of a vehicle. A buffer member is provided between a slider to which a shoulder anchor is attached, and a guide rail secured to a vehicle body. A pin for restricting the movement in a vertical direction of the slider, is guided by a guide wall to move from one recess portion in the buffer member to the other. The guide wall has ribs as reinforcing members on a lower side and the ribs prevent deformation of the guide wall.

Abstract: A loop hanger for a seat belt (10) which slidably hangs a seat belt webbing (S) is provided with a base member (20) made of a metal plate and having a slot (21) through which the seat belt webbing (S) is moved, wherein the slot (21) is constituted with a long side portion (21a) extending in a generally horizontal direction and a pair of left and right short side portions (21b) communicating with left and right end portions of the long side portion (21a) and extending downwardly, a portion of the base member (20) surrounded by the long side portion (21a) and the pair of short side portions (21b) is curved smoothly from a side of the long side portion (21a) in a generally C-shaped sectional configuration, and a curved face (21f) formed by curving the portion of the base member (20) serves as a portion (20a) through which the seat belt webbing (S) is turned back. Accordingly, anti-gum up property can be improved largely.

Abstract: A height adjuster adapted to remain latched during a side-on collision includes a guide rail having a U-shaped cross section, an adjusting part displaceable in the guide rail, an arresting mechanism for the adjusting part moveable in a longitudinal direction, a blocking part, for arresting the adjusting part and penetrating latch openings of the guide rail and an elastic member which biases the blocking part into the latch openings of the guide rail.

Abstract: A shoulder anchor position adjusting device is provided in which assembly of a position adjusting mechanism, which adjusts a position of a shoulder anchor, is easy. The shoulder anchor is fixed to a slider. The slider is slidably mounted to a slide rail by the position adjusting mechanism which has a lock pin and a release lever. The release lever is placed on the slider in which a stepped groove is formed. The release lever is swingably held due to engagement of an anchor plate of a cover case with a cut-out groove. A flange portion is formed at the lock pin, and is supported by a step forming portion of the stepped groove. Due to a coil spring, a shaft portion of the lock pin is inserted through an insertion hole of the slider and is fit into an engagement hole formed in the slide rail.

Abstract: To absorb the energy in the event of a head impact, a device is provided between a safety belt locking rail and a side wall of a vehicle pillar of the device included deformation elements in the form of conical deformation elements or spring systems in the form of cup or compression springs.

Abstract: A connecting screw for a locking rail of a vertical belt adjuster is anchored in a threaded head of a sleeve element anchored in a vehicle pillar wall. The sleeve element can be positioned during installation by a guide element which envelops the threaded head and is disposed so as to clamp in notches of the threaded head.

Abstract: A three-point passenger restraint system for a passenger seat including a lap belt having a first end connected to a lap belt retractor and a second end. A torso belt having a first end connected to the second end of the lap belt and a second end. The second end of the torso belt is attached to an anchor arm that is pivotally mounted to a passenger seat or vehicle side structure, wherein the anchor arm is rotationally biased to remove slack in the torso belt. The anchor arm rotates and thus functions (i) as the upper height adjusting anchor point for the three-point restraining system and (ii) to adjust belt length to comfortably accommodate passenger sizes in the range of a 5th percentile female to a 95th percentile male.

Abstract: A seat belt shoulder adjuster has a rail and a slider, the slider having formed in it a webbing returning part through which the seat belt is returned to the passenger compartment of a vehicle. The rail is disposed along a pillar and fixed thereto. The slider is mounted to the rail so as to enable up and down movement with respect thereto, and webbing of a seat belt passes between the rail and the slider via the webbing returning part, into the passenger compartment of the vehicle.

Abstract: A height adjuster for a vehicle safety belt comprises a track and a slide piece which may be shifted within the track. The height adjuster further comprises an adjusting mechanism with a lever by which a movement of the slide piece can be unlocked or locked. Further, a deflection fitting is provided which is attached to the slide piece, and an impact protection member. The impact protection member is attached to the slide piece and extends from the slide piece in a direction away from the track. A cover part is provided which engages with the impact protection member.

Abstract: A shoulder anchor device comprises a through anchor (23) for supporting a seat belt, a base member (3, 103) for mounting on a center pillar of a vehicle body, and a fixing mechanism (38, 40) for fixing the through anchor to the base member. The base member includes a channel-shaped anchor fixing portion (1) of a generally C-shaped cross-section for fixing the through anchor, and a pair of vehicle fixing portions formed integrally at opposite ends of the anchor fixing portion and formed into a generally flat plate-shape in a cross-section.

Abstract: A passenger safety belt restraint arrangement for a center seat in a vehicle has a height-adjustable shoulder belt in the shoulder area of a passenger. For this purpose, a height-adjustable mount which has a height-adjustable diverter for the shoulder belt at its highest point is provided in the upper backrest area of the center seat.

Abstract: A trim component (10) for a vehicle door post (11) having a seat belt mounting (17) secured thereto, the component comprising a body shell (12) with at least one energy absorbing member (24) mounted on the reverse side (16) of the body shell. The member (24) has an aperture (34) therein through which seat belt webbing (19) in use passes, and is slidable relative to the shell (12) to accommodate belt path adjustments.

Abstract: A mechanism for mounting a seat belt of a center seating space of a vehicle seat which exhibits sufficient strength and reduces weight and production costs to the greatest degree is provided. Such a mechanism is provided by separating a seat into a right seating section and a left seating section at the center thereof such that each of the separated seating sections is independently slidable back and forth by means of a seat sliding rail formed of a pair of lower rails fixed to a floor side and a pair of upper rails fixed to the bottom of a seat. A base member bent at an intermediate bent portion defined by a belt mount plate portion and a rail mount connector portion is attached to a side surface of the inner upper rail at the rail connector plate portion such that the belt mount plate portion extends outward. An anchor for the seat belt of the center seating space of the seat is fixed to the top end of the belt mount plate portion of the base member.

Abstract: A seat belt webbing guide height adjuster (10) includes a base (50) having a column (80) of openings (84, 86, 88) spaced along an axis (61). A carriage (120) is supported on the base (50) for movement along the axis (61) relative to the base. A seat belt webbing guide (24) is supported on the carriage (120). First and second latch parts (160, 180) on the carriage (120) are independently movable between a first condition not located in any one of the openings (84-88) and a second condition located in one of the openings to block axial movement of the carriage relative to the base (50). The first and second latch parts (160, 180) are configured and disposed on the carriage (120) so as to be capable of locating in the same opening (84-88) simultaneously. The height adjuster (10) also includes biasing means (210) for biasing the first and second latch parts (160, 180) into the second condition, and actuatable release means (200) for moving the first and second latch parts to the first condition.
