Clutch housing for a seat belt pretensioner

摘要

A pretensioner clutch housing for a vehicle seat belt arrangement has a housing made of a first housing part arranged to mount a clutch, and a second housing part arranged to mount a pre-tensioning device. The first and second housing parts have cooperating members for connecting the parts together. The cooperating members preferably are a flange on one part and a slot on the other. The clutch housing part is thus universal and only the pretensioner housing part needs to be changed to alter the angle of extension of a tube containing a pretensioner's piston to facilitate different models of cars.
