Abstract
An arm restraint system comprises for each arm of the occupants a sleeve to which a tape is connected at two spaced points. A ring, slidable on this tape, is connected, through a disengageable barrel connector, to a second tape which runs through a snubber block and is connected to the vehicle via a shear pin. Ejection of the occupant pulls the second tape through the snubber block and through the barrel connector, the first tape across the occupant thus drawing the arm through the sleeve down to the occupant's side.
