ABSTRACT:
In a safety belt retractor using a spring force to take up webbing, a take-up force eliminator comprises a ratchet wheel rotatable with a webbing take-up spindle after a delay corresponding to a predetermined angle, rotating means adapted to follow the rotation of the take-up spindle to assume a first and a second position, cam means adapted to stepwisely advance with the displacement of the rotating means from the first position to the second position and to assume a first and a second operative position in accordance with the stepwisely advanced positions, and locking means adapted to follow the cam means to engage the ratchet wheel when the cam means is in the first operative position, thereby locking the take-up spindle against rotation in the take-up direction, and to be disengaged from the ratchet wheel when the cam means is in the second operative position.
