ABSTRACT:
A passive safety belt device for a vehicle comprising a safety belt connected between the door of the vehicle and a retractor provided on the floor of the vehicle at a central portion and a belt guiding member pivotally mounted at a central portion. The belt guiding member is rotatable between a backward fastening position near the passenger's waist and a forward releasing position away from the waist. The belt guiding member is connected to the door by a cable and is biased in the backward direction by a spring. The cable passes through a knee pad provided under an instrument panel and projects from an end portion of said knee pad adjacent to an inner panel of said door and being connected to the inner panel at an outer end of the cable. Thus, when the door is opened, the belt guiding member is moved to the forward releasing position so that the safety belt may be removed from the passenger's waist.
