ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for adjusting the height of the upper attachment or guide fitting for the shoulder belt of a safety belt system, particularly in motor vehicles. The apparatus has an arrangement for the preferably automatic adaptation of the height position of the attachment or guide fitting to the seated position of the person to be strapped in. A device provided in addition to the fitting senses the position of the belt strap with respect to a parameter of its operative connection to the person strapped in, and triggers a reaction to the situation ascertained. The problem exists that the height adjusting apparatus directly follows all movements of the person strapped in because of the direct coupling of condition detection and signal output. To achieve the objective, according to which the readjustment of the guide fitting should take place only with a permanent change of the seated position of the vehicle passenger, an arrangement for comparing the actual value, with respect to the selected parameter, with a fixed desired value is proposed, the reaction being triggered upon a permanent exceeding of a predetermined deviation between desired and actual value.
