Abstract

In a belt roller for a safety belt system, a rod assembly has a torsion rod as well as at least one torsion sleeve which surrounds it coaxially. A stopping mechanism is provided with at least two axially offset stopping element sections, which can be adjusted either individually or jointly to the at least one torsion sleeve and to the torsion rod through the use of a control mechanism depending on the energy absorption capacity to be applied.
