Automobile, such seat belt or seat belt assemblies usually have two straps or belts attached to the '? ahrzeugkörper are anchored, with a strap with a Tab or tongue and the other strap is connected with a buckle or belt buckle, making the two Belts can be arranged over the lap of the occupant and the tab can be inserted into the buckle so that it is therein is held until it is released by operating the buckle mechanism by hand.

Ea is already a large number of such buckle arrangements known. They usually have some type of latch, latch, or latch, the one with a tab cooperates and is movable between the locked and the released position, whereby the tab on the

Buckle is held in the locked position or can be released from this in the release position. The buckles have various subassemblies, devices, linkages, etc. for attachment to or cooperation with the pawl on. Furthermore, the arrangements usually have a TTaI-ter arrangement, z. B. a housing. Quite often these housings are in the form of a flat metal plate, which is

the USA patents 2 995 792 and 3 203 065. The problem of the known arrangements is the difficulty of bringing in the various elements and components in the housing and in a suitable cooperation position with the remaining elements and components. These elements are entered into the housing either separately or in sub-assemblies which are to be arranged within the housing are. This creates a very difficult and expensive arrangement problem and also leads to the possibility of defective ones Arrangements as a result of improper introduction of the components during the arrangement.

One buckle arrangement is in U.S. Patent '2,882,581 which does not use an enclosed housing, and although does not have any substantial arrangement of the components is required after they are introduced into the housing, it is necessary that the components or parts be introduced into the housing from two directly opposite directions. Such a buckle offers

shown. A second preferred embodiment of the buckle assembly of the present invention is shown generally at 120 in FIGS. A third preferred embodiment of the buckle assembly according to the invention is shown generally at 220 in the D ¹ Ig. 9 to 12 shown.

Referring to the buckle assembly 20 of the figures 1 ″ to 5, the housing 22 has an opening 24 therein, and a cavity 26 extends into the housing from the opening 24 to a wall 28 which is arranged opposite the opening 24. The housing 22 also has a device with a flange 30 on and with an opening 32 therein for attaching a seat belt or the like Flange.

The assembly 20 also includes a pawl, indicated generally at 34 in FIG. 1, for pawl engagement with a Tab 36 in a latched position, the latch device also for releasing the tab 36 in a release position is actuatable. The tab 36 can be attached to the seat belt in a suitable manner through an opening 38 will. The tab has a head 40 and a leg 42 which extends from the head to connect the head to the main

109822/0042

to connect body part of the tab, whose. Sweck on
is more clearly expressed below.

The link assembly 34 includes a plurality of components consisting of that indicated generally at 44 Tendon, the pawl "bracket" indicated generally at 46 and the push button indicated generally at 48. These components are all sequentially entered through opening 24 into cavity 26, where ™

the first component formed by the tendon 44 comes into engagement with the wall £ 8. The parts
are arranged in the cavity 26 with at least parts thereof in series in an overlapping relationship in the direction in which the cavity extends into the housing. As will be more clearly apparent from the following description, the tendon 44, latch bracket 46 and push button 48 can be separately inserted into the housing and cavity, one at a time, or they can be in series with one another as a subassembly prior to insertion engage the cavity.

The arrangement also has a cap 50 which is connected to the housing 22 and which is arranged over the opening 24

109822/0042

is to provide the only unclear means by which. is prevented that all Beatand parts by the tendon 44, the latch bracket 46 and the push button 48 are formed, extending through the opening 24 and out of the housing move out.

The housing 22 has an extending into it from the outside Slot 52 in communication with cavity 26 for receiving tab 36. Slot 52 extends into the Housing 22 in a direction generally transverse to the direction in which cavity 26 extends into the housing 22 extends. .

The pawl bracket 46 is between a latched position, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, for engagement with of tab 36 and one as in Pig. 5 shown, the pricing order for releasing the tab 36 is movable to allow that the tab 36 is removed from the housing 22.

The clamping member 44 presses the pawl bracket 46 against the pawl position. The push button 48 is for moving the Latch bracket 46 from the latching position, like In den Pig. 3 and 4 is shown in the release position, as shown in FIG.

shows is operable.

I understand that tendon 44 is on a Side of the latch bracket 46 is arranged, and that the push button 48 is arranged on the other side of the latch bracket 46 is. The tendon 44 is disposed on the wall 28 and the cap 50 has an opening 54 therein which opens over the Push button 48 for access to the same is located.

The housing 22 has surfaces 56 in the cavity 26, which extend from the wall 28 towards the opening 24 for receiving the latch bracket 46 from the opening 24 · and to the Limiting the movement of the pawl bracket 46 to movements that are substantially parallel to the surfaces 56 get lost. In other words, a pocket for receiving the elongated pawl bracket is in the cavity 26 or through it 46 and formed to limit its movement to such movement that is substantially against the wall and away from it.

The side of the latch bracket 46 on which the push button 48 is located, is formed by a central channel 58 machined as a recess or recess

- 12 -

109822/0042

A pair of curved ramps 60 extend upwardly from channel 58 in a direction away from slot 52 in housing 22. Thus, the tab 36 with the head 4-0 and the leg can be entered through the slot 52 so that the head 40 engages ramp 60 to move latch 46 toward the release position until head 40 is over the ramps 60 runs and the pawl bracket 46 moves to the pawl position where the head 40 behind the ramp 60 and the leg 42 is arranged in the channel 58, as shown in FIG. 4 are.

Furthermore, the pawl bracket 46 has one outside of each Shoulder 62 disposed on ramp 60, and the push button 48 engages shoulder 62. In particular, everyone has Shoulder 62 has a hole 64 'and the push button 48 has spikes 66 extending from there and into the holes 64. These can be slidably disposed in the holes 64 or can be fitted into the holes 64.

The slot 52 extends through the housing 22 between the exterior thereof and the cavity 26 by a sufficient amount Distance to limit the movement of the tab 36 when it is in the pawl position, so that here-

109822/0042 - ¹ ^

is prevented by tab 36 from disengaging from the latch to be removed with the pawl bracket 46, while the pawl bracket 46 remains in the pawl position. With others In words, the length of the slot 52 is such that the tab is prevented from being upwardly out of engagement with it the rear of the ramp 60 to be moved out. Further in the case where the push button 48 is in engagement with the Pawl bracket 46 is fitted, the movement of the tab 36 by the "3 e from stand between the push button 48 and the The latch member 46 is limited.

The G-housing 22 faces the cavity 26 in the Housing into extending bores 68, and the cap 50 has bolts 70 extending therefrom for attachment of the cap on the housing 22 are fitted into the bores 68.

The biasing member 44 has a central slide portion and a pair of spring arms 74 that extend at an angle extend from each side of the carriage part 72. the distal (distal) "ends of the spring arms have curved.after parts 76 turned upside down which enter into ISingrlff with the wall 28 of the housing.
