ABSTRACT:
A rear seat vehicle seat belt buckle arrangement includes a buckle head and webbing for attaching the buckle head to a load bearing part of the vehicle. The webbing is fixed to at least two spaced apart attachment locations connected to the load bearing part of the vehicle. The webbing may be a single piece of webbing looped through a slot in the buckle head or two separate lengths of webbing and it may be attached to opposite or to spaced apart rings mounted to a mounting bracket bolted to a fixed part of the vehicle (e.g. a floor plate). The fixing bolt preferably passes between the two splayed parts of the webbing to retain the splayed form. This provides more comfort to the passenger and more flexibility whilst optimizing the safety of the restraint by restricting forward movement of the passenger in a crash and applying crash leads appropriately.
