ABSTRACT:
A single continuous loop safety belt harness assembly for a vehicle has a retractor which is attached to a first end of a safety belt harness for retractably storing and adjustably anchoring the safety belt, and which is mounted in a rearward position upon the vehicle door. A belt guide is provided for receiving the belt extending upward from the retractor, and for directing the belt in a downward direction diagonally across the torso of the occupant seated in the vehicle. A second end of the belt is attached to a lower portion of the door by means of an anchor. A releasable connector is mounted upon the belt between the belt guide and the anchor, for connecting a central portion of the belt to a floor-mounted buckling member on the opposite side of the occupant's seat from the door, thereby forming a safety harness assembly wherein a portion of the belt is directed diagonally downward across the torso of the occupant from the belt guide on the door and a second portion of the belt is directed horizontally across the pelvic region of the occupant from the anchor. The entire safety belt harness assembly is mounted upon the vehicle door such that, when the assembly is not in use, the entire belt is retracted to a position adjacent the door and is swung completely out of the way of the occupant upon the opening of the door, thereby allowing unimpeded entrance to and egress from the vehicle.
