ABSTRACT:
A belt clamp for vehicle safety belt systems comprises a fixed clamping jaw mounted on a frame and a movable clamping jaw engaged by the belt and carried by the frame in a manner such that it moves toward the fixed clamping jaw in response to tension in the belt. Spacers on the frame limit the extent of movement of the movable clamping jaw toward the fixed clamping jaw. A deformable member interposed between the fixed clamping jaw and the frame deforms in response to a predetermined tensile load on the belt so that the belt is allowed to slip through the clamping jaws and absorb the kinetic energy of the occupant.
