ABSTRACT:
The drawings and accompanying description disclose an attachment mechanism for a vehicular shoulder belt, which is readily attachable and quickly removable as a complete assembly from a mounting bolt threadedly secured to the roof rail adjacent the rear seat of a vehicle, such as a station wagon. The attachment mechanism includes a base member having a keyhole opening therein for mounting on the bolt, a leaf spring adapted to lie in part against the base member and retain the bolt head in the smaller portion of the keyhole opening after being deflected to permit the bolt head to pass through the larger portion of the keyhole opening, and a partially exposed pivotable actuating member operatively connected intermediate the base member and leaf spring for manually urging the leaf spring past the bolt head to permit removal of the attachment mechanism from the bolt via the larger keyhole opening portion.
