SEATBELT APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A seatbelt apparatus comprising:
- a belt reel around which a belt is wound;
a motor which rotationally drives the belt reel;
a transmitting device which transmits a driving power between the belt reel and the motor;
a controller which drives the motor while controlling an electricity to be supplied to the motor;
a rotation-detection device which detects a rotation status of the belt reel, wherein;
the rotation-detection device outputs, in accordance with a rotation of the belt reel, a plurality of outputs including signals indicating a first state in which a current consumption by the rotation-detection device is larger than a predetermined value, and a second state in which the current consumption by the rotation-detection device is smaller than the predetermined value; and
the controller executes a first motor-driving process in which the motor is driven based on an output from the rotation-detection device until reaching the second state.

Abstract
This seatbelt apparatus includes: a belt reel around which a belt is wound; a motor which rotationally drives the belt reel; a transmitting device which transmits a driving power between the belt reel and the motor; a controller which drives the motor while controlling an electricity to be supplied to the motor; a rotation-detection device which detects a rotation status of the belt reel. The rotation-detection device outputs, in accordance with a rotation of the belt reel, a plurality of outputs including signals indicating a first state in which a current consumption by the rotation-detection device is larger than a predetermined value, and a second state in which the current consumption by the rotation-detection device is smaller than the predetermined value. The controller executes a first motor-driving process in which the motor is driven based on an output from the rotation-detection device until reaching the second state.
