Abstract
An installation for feeding the lock-tongue and/or the belt-band of a safety belt system, especially of a three-point safety belt with belt roller, into a position favorable for the fastening of the belt in a preferably two-door passenger motor vehicle, in which after boarding of the vehicle, the lock-tongue and/or the belt-band is transferred by a servo-mechanism from a rearward position not impairing the free access to the rear seats in the course of a rectilinear feed movement into a forward position coordinated to the driver or co-driver; the servo-mechanism together with the lock-tongue and/or belt-band returns into the starting position immediately after the termination of the belt-engaging operation and after a predetermined or freely selectable time interval in case the lock-tongue and/or the belt-band is not picked up.
