ABSTRACT:
The anchoring arrangement for safety belts surrounding a vertically and longitudinally adjustable seat in a motor vehicle comprises supporting rail fixedly mounted to the body of the vehicle, a clamping member surrounding the supporting rail and having locking bolts slidably supported on narrow sides of the rail, a swing lever having one arm pivotably connected to the clamping member, a bearing box rigidly connected to the seat and pivotably supporting the fulcrum point of the swing lever, the arm of the swing lever projecting into the bearing box having the form of a gear segment; a first locking pinion is fixedly arranged for rotation in the bearing box and being in mesh with the gear segment, and a second locking pinion supported for rotation at the free end of a splice strap which at its other end is connected to the safety belt; the second pinion being guided in tangential oblong holes in the bearing box and being spring biased to resume a normal position apart from the first locking pinion and in the event when an excessive force is exerted against the safety belt and thus against the splice strap, the second locking pinion is guided in the oblong holes into engagement with the first locking pinion and with the gear segment, thus locking the swing lever to the bearing box and transmitting the pull from the safety belts to the clamping member and causing the locking of the same with the supporting rail.
