Abstract:

A safety belt () is secured to a seat structure () using movable anchor points (). In an embodiment, a y-belt () is attached to left and right pivotable anchor plates (). The anchor plates () pivot when a load is applied to the safety belt (), thus allowing the anchor points to self-align to maintain an equal amount of tension across the lower and higher portion of the seat belt. In a different embodiment, a 2-point safety belt () is attached to slidable anchors () that move within channels () in response to load applied to the safety belt, allowing the anchor points to self-align to maintain proper tension and positioning of the safety belt ().
