Adapting shoulder anchor for seatbelt

An automotive seat comprising:

• a seat frame;
• a retractor rigidly coupled to the seat frame and positioned within the automotive seat;
• a shoulder anchor defining a D-ring opening, the shoulder anchor positioned within the automotive seat;
• a drive system coupled between the seat frame and the shoulder anchor, the drive system positioned within the automotive seat and configured to move the shoulder anchor between a first position and a second position relative to the seat frame;
• a webbing coupled to the retractor, passing through the D-ring opening, and passing through a slit formed in the automotive seat;
• at least one sensor;
• and
• a processor in electrical communication with the at least one sensor and a memory, wherein the processor executes computer-readable instructions stored on the memory, the instructions causing the processor to:
• receive sensor data from the at least one sensor,
• determine whether the webbing is within an expected area on a person in the automotive seat based on the received sensor data, and
• control operation of the drive system to move the shoulder anchor relative to the seat frame in response to the webbing being outside of the expected area on the person in the automotive seat such that the webbing is moved into the expected area.

An automotive seat comprising:

• a seat base;
• a seat back coupled to the seat base and defining a slit;
• a retractor positioned within the seat back in a fixed position;
• a linear actuator positioned within the seat back;
• a motor positioned within the seat back and coupled to the linear actuator;
• a shoulder anchor positioned within the seat back and defining a D-ring opening, the shoulder anchor coupled to the motor;
• a webbing coupled to the retractor, passing through the D-ring opening, and passing through the slit;
• and
• a processor in electrical communication with at least one sensor and a memory, wherein the processor executes computer-readable instructions stored on the memory, the instructions causing the processor to control operation of the linear actuator and the motor to move the shoulder anchor within the seat back in response to the webbing being outside of an expected area.
