SAFETY BELT TENSION TRANSFER SYSTEM

摘要

A vehicle safety restraint system 300 for a vehicle that allows transfer of tensile force from a transferor belt 310 to a transferee belt 330. One end of the transferor belt 310 is secured to the vehicle and the other end is attached to a transferor plate 322. One end of the transferee belt 330 is secured to the vehicle and the other end is fed through a transferee plate 340 and attached to a tension transfer latch plate 360. When the vehicle experiences a sudden deceleration that exerts a tensile force on the transferor belt 310, the tension transfer latch plate 360 is separated from the transferee plate 340 if the tensile force exceeds a design value. When the tension transfer latch plate 360 is separated, the tensile force is transferred to the transferee belt 330.
