A supplemental restraint system comprises a channel adapted to receive a seat belt, a first flange adapted to retain the seat belt formed on a first edge of the channel, a second flange adapted to retain the seat belt formed on a second edge of the channel opposite the first edge, and a pad connected to a bottom surface of the channel. The pad may have an internal compartment adapted to contain a pressurized fluid or may have a compressive element disposed therein. The pad may have a width between two-times and four-times a width of the seat belt. The supplemental restraint system may be deployed, both in a shoulder restraint segment of the seat belt and in a lap belt segment of the seat belt. |
