A seat belt retractor is comprised of a minimum number of component parts (12, 14, 16, 18, 20) which may be interchangeably and optionally assembled upon a standard frame (10) to provide a desired combination of mechanisms which control rotation of the belt reel (12). The optical control mechanisms include spring windup (14), belt-sensitive lockup (18), vehicle-sensitive lockup (16), and a comfort device (20) for relieving tension on the belt (58). A pair of support members (96, 170) abut against side walls (26, 28) of frame (10) to carry the control mechanisms and have integral bushings (100, 174) which journal a reel shaft (40). Covers (142, 236) are provided to enclose the operating mechanisms and have plug-in projections (140, 238) which extend through aligned apertures (158, 160, 162, 176) of the support members (96, 170) and frame side walls (26, 28) to attach the support members (96, 170) and associated control mechanisms (14, 16, 18, 20) interchangeably on either of the frame side walls (26, 28). The frame (10) has first and second opposed facing pairs of mounting apertures (72, 74, 88, 90) to selectively mount a lock bar (70) for engagement with oncoming reel sprocket teeth (54) regardless of the selected direction of belt-unwinding reel rotation. One of the support members (96) carries an inertia weight support (102) which has first and second pairs of oppositely arranged apertured mounting bosses (122, 124, 126, 128) for selective alternate mounting of a lock bar-energizing pawl (110) to orient the pawl (110) for engagement with oncoming gear teeth (54) carried by a reel sprocket (48) regardless of the direction of belt-unwinding reel rotation. |
