<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the occupant crash protection performance against a side impact of a vehicle. <P>SOLUTION: An occupant crash protection device 1 according to the invention is structured so that a belt 5 is taken up by a retractor 8 when possibility of side impact increases, to cause the belt 5 appearing between a shoulder anchor 4 provided with the tip of shoulder of a seat back part on the outside of a seat 2 and a through anchor 7 provided at the front end of the seat cushion part, which generates a condition to prepare for a side impact. In case side impact has happened, the shoulder anchor 4 and the through anchor 7 are drawn toward inside the vehicle along a shoulder anchor rail 3 and a through anchor rail 6, which restrains the occupant to inside the vehicle. This allows reducing the impact energy between the occupant and a door etc. when the vehicle makes side impact and enhancing the occupant restraining force in the vehicle lateral direction. Accordingly it is possible to improve the occupant crash protection performance against side impact of the vehicle. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT</p> |
