Abstract
A passive seat belt system is equipped with a guide rail, a slide anchor movable along the length of the guide rail and connected to one end of an occupant restraining webbing, and a drive means for causing the slide anchor to move along the length of the guide rail between an occupant restraining position and an occupant releasing position. Both end faces of the slide anchor as viewed in both running directions of the slide anchor flare out form the side of the webbing toward the side of the guide rail in the respective running directions.
Claims18
A passive seat belt system comprising:
- a guide rail;
- a slide anchor movable along the length of the guide rail and connected to one end of an occupant restraining webbing;
- a drive means for causing the slide anchor to move along the length of the guide rail between an occupant restraining position and an occupant releasing position;
- and
- a means for connecting the slide anchor and webbing to each other, comprising a first member attached to the slide anchor and a second member engageable with the first member, the webbing being fastened at the one end thereof on the second member;
- wherein both end faces of the slide anchor as viewed in both running directions of the slide anchor flare out from the side of the webbing toward the side of the guide rail in the respective running directions;
- and
- wherein at least one of end faces of the first member as viewed in both running directions of the slide anchor is formed without any step between said at least one end face of the first member and the corresponding one of the end faces of the slide anchor.
