Abstract

A position-adjusting device for a safety belt guide loop includes a rail provided with retaining slots, a carriage which is slidably mounted on the rail and on which are mounted the guide loop and two locking bolts urged by respective springs to a position of engagement in the rail slots in order to lock the carriage in a corresponding position along the rail. The length of the rail slots in the direction of sliding motion of the carriage is greater than the corresponding dimension of the locking bolts. The bolts are so arranged in relation to each other that, in any position of the carriage along the rail, at least one locking bolt is located opposite to one rail slot and capable of engaging therein. The slots form a single row and are each capable of receiving both locking bolts, depending on the position of the carriage along the rail.
