Abstract

In a vehicle seat having a safety belt system, the belts of which are connected with the seat frame in the area of the upper end section of the back rest at two upper connecting points lying spaced from each other in the lateral direction of the seat, and in the area of the rear end of its seat portion, the lower end of its back rest or its support slide rails at two lower connection points provided on the respective sides of the seat, the two lap belts are guided along the respective pivot arms (12,12') which are connected with the seat frame in the area of one or the other of the lower connecting points (5) so as to pivot about respective axes extending in the lateral direction of the seat. The two pivot arms (12,12') are formed to resist bending in the pivot direction but to bend elastically laterally thereto. The one pivot arm (12) is connected with the other pivot arm (12') by a transmission that forces an opposite pivot direction. The two shoulder belts (4) run from the respective upper connection points to the associated element (14,15) of the belt closure, because the lap belt (6) is attached to the same side of the seat.
