ABSTRACT:
A lock mechanism adapted to be actuated by an acceleration sensor in an emergency of a vehicle prevents webbing windoff, whereby an occupant is restrained. After completion of a collision, the manual operation of a release lever releases the action of the lock mechanism, so that the occupant can unfasten the webbing from himself to escape from the vehicle to outside. Thereafter, when the webbing is wound up the release lever is restored, so that the lock mechanism can lock again, thereby enabling to secure the restraint of the occupant for a subsequent emergency.
