<p>A pivotable armrest (10) is disclosed for presenting a seat belt buckle (26) to a vehicle's occupant when the armrest is extended from a retracted position to a working position. The armrest preferably retracts (16) into an upright position along side of the seat back (16), but alternatively can be made to downwardly retract adjacent to the seat bottom (18). The armrest movement may be manually or automatically driven. The armrest is preferably attached to the outboard side of a seat (12), and is used in conjunction with a conventional shoulder and lap belt arrangement. Preferably, the conventional restraint system is integrally mounted within the seat.</p> |
