ABSTRACT:
A belt guide for use in a vehicle occupant restraint belt system of the type which has a belt retractor that exerts a generally constant retracting force on the belt. The belt guide includes a frame having a passage for the belt, a guide roller located on the frame at a point adjacent to the passage and a belt clamping member mounted on the frame for movement between a release position out of engagement with the belt and a stop position in which the belt is clamped between the clamping member and either the belt guide roller or a portion of the passage in the frame. When the clamping member engages the belt in the stop position, the belt is prevented from being retracted.
