4917403 - Webbing support apparatus - Owned by Kabushiki Kaisha Tokai-Rika-Denki-Seisakusho (Aichi,JP)

A webbing support apparatus being capable of changing a support height of a webbing to be wound around an occupant of a vehicle, which is provided with a slider for supporting the webbing and being movably supported in a vertical direction in a guide rail, and the slider is provided with a restricting member which is engaged with the guide rail during its downward movement to prevent a downward movement of the slider more than a predetermined value. Accordingly, the slider can be positively lowered step by step.

4560204 - Height-adjustment device for a motor-vehicle safety belt - Owned by Autoflug GmbH (Rellingen,DE)

A device for adjusting the height of the upper mounting or guide fitting of a motor-vehicle safety belt. The device includes a guide rail having arresting openings arranged above one another on both sides, and a slide which is movable in the guide rail, carries the mounting or guide fitting, and has locking elements which are displaceable transversely to the direction of movement of the slide, against spring pressure, from a locking position into an unlocked position via at least one push button. Problems to be overcome, on the one hand, include being able to carry out convenient and safe adjustment by hand and, on the other hand, preventing automatic adjustment as a result of uncontrollable external influences. To make the adjustment device easy to operate, shock-proof, and at the same time also practicable for smaller motor vehicles, there is located on the push button a guide member which has at least one inclined guide into which an extension of the associated locking element engages; the length and path direction of the inclined guide are such that the associated locking element is displaced from one extreme position to the other when the locking element traverses the inclined guide via the extension. The extensions of the locking elements, and the associated inclined guides, are preferably made to engage positively.

A mounting arrangement for a through anchor for passing an automobile seat belt webbing through characterized in that an adjustable anchor provided with a freely-rotating through anchor is adapted to slide up and down on an adjusting base, freely-rotating adjustable anchor latch pieces provided with fastening legs and biased by a return spring are fixed on the adjustable anchor, and the fastening legs are fastened with fastening means provided on the adjusting base so as to hold the adjustable anchor at a set position.

4536011 - Position adjuster for seat belt - Owned by NSK-Warner K. K. (JP)

A device for adjusting the support position of a seat belt includes a base, an adjustable anchor to be guided along the base, a latch member mounted on the anchor between two positions, an operation member for bringing the latch member from one position to the other position through a two-step operation in two different directions, and a device for allowing the movement of the latch member from the one position to the other position only when the two-step operation of the operation member is accomplished. The anchor is fixed to the base when the latch member takes the one position, while the anchor is movable along the base when the latch member takes the other position.

4573708 - Arrangement in vehicle safety belts of the three-point type - Owned by Safety Transport Inter Development AB (Anderstrop,SE)

An arrangement in vehicle safety belts of the three-point type for adjusting stepwise the height of the anchoring fitting located at shoulder level at one side of the seat. The arrangement comprises a fixedly mounted guide rail having U-shaped cross-sectional form and edge flanges projecting towards each other, which define a longitudinal slot and form a number of recesses distributed along the slot, and a slide which is displaceable along the guide rail and comprises an engagement element and a lock element. The engagement element is displaceable in the transverse direction of the web of the guide rail for releaseable engagement with the recesses in a desired longitudinally displaced position under spring bias with the engagement element spanning the slot between the edge flanges. The anchoring fitting is arranged on the engagement element. The lock element is connected with an operation member available outside the guide rail to be operated manually and is displaceable in relation to the engagement element in the longitudinal direction of the guide rail guided by the guide rail in engagement with the web and edge flanges thereof. The engagement element is guided on the lock element to be disengageable from the recesses against the spring bias by displacement transversally of the web of the guide rail when the lock element is displaced in relation to the engagement element in the longitudinal direction of the guide rail.
