Abstract

A device for adjusting height of a shoulder anchor that forms a seatbelt device of a vehicle. A compression coil spring is used for urging a pin which restricts downward movement of a slider whose position in a vertical direction of the vehicle is adjustable. An attachment portion of the compression coil spring attaches to the pin and has a smaller internal diameter than an intermediate portion of the compression coil spring. The internal diameter of the attachment portion is slightly larger than an external diameter of the pin. Thus, when the compression coil spring is assembled, precise positioning is not necessary, and when the compression coil spring is compressed, an axis thereof is prevented from deviating with respect to an axis of the pin.
