ABSTRACT:
A seat belt structure mountable in a vehicle which provides a delayed release to the seat belt when the attached vehicle is struck from the side adjacent the seat about which the structure is mounted so as to avoid entrapment of a belted occupant of the seat. The inner side of the structure is fitted with a first seat belt, the free end of which is attachable to a second seat belt fastened adjacent an outer side of the vehicle with the fixed end of the first seat belt detachably fastened by a latch pin fixed to a lateral bar extending under the seat and joined at the outer side of the seat to a longitudinal arm. A collision force applied sidewards against the longitudinal arm and lateral bar towards the center of the vehicle moves the latch pin out of engagement with the first seat belt end so as to free the first seat belt end.
