ABSTRACT:
In a device for height adjustment of a vehicular seat belt fitting a load-supporting guide rail (10) equipped for securing to the vehicle has a plurality of latching members (21) spaced in its longitudinal direction. In this guide rail (10) a carrier (12) is shiftably mounted, to which the seat belt fitting is secured. A latch bar (22) selectively latchable to the latching members (21) in this guide rail is mounted on the carrier. By the actuation of a release member (26) the latch bar (22) is releasable from the corresponding latching member (21). The latch bar (22) is mounted on the carrier (12) so that it can be swivelled about a swivel axis (A) which is at least more or less horizontal and its center of gravity (S) is displaced in the direction of the guide rail (10) relative to a plane (E) oriented parallel to the guide rail (10) and passing through the swivel axis (A). In the case of a sudden downwards movement of the carrier 12 due to a belt tensioning action, the latch bar (22) is displaced into its latching position due to its own inertia.
