<p>An improved belt retractor assembly for use in a seat belt safety mechanism having a frame, a belt spool rotatably mounted on the frame, a pawl mounted for rotation with the spool, the retractor assembly including a calibration plate for mounting on the frame and a ratchet wheel mounted on the calibration plate by interference fit for engagement with the pawl. During an accident event, the belt retractor assembly will allow the spool to dispense belt webbing when the belt load goes above a predetermined range, thus allowing an occupant to incur lower overall loads.</p> |
