Abstract

In a vertically displaceable safety belt fitting, to ensure that, even when high displacement forces occur, a first catch element of the slideably displaceable anchoring element received by a guide rail fixed to the vehicle body executes a downwardly directed movement after it has run up against an associated pawl and after an actuating button has been released, whereby, when the button is depressed again, the first catch element becomes capable of moving the associated pawl away, it is proposed to equip a release element carrying the first catch element with an upwardly directed slot on the same side as the bearing and to provide the release element with a spring which engages on the top side of the release element.
