[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in conventional seat belts, neglect of wearing a seat belt,
When driving with an unfastened seat belt, such as when there is no occupant in the auxiliary seat, the distance between the fixed portion at one end of the webbing 2 and the guide member 5 is relatively long. In some cases, the swinging and flapping of the retractor against the force in the winding direction of the retractor caused by running vibration or the like, and the body hit the body side, thereby compromising the comfortable indoor environment. further,
The tongue 3 is suspended between the one end fixing portion of the webbing 2 and the guide member 5, and when a large vibration is received, the tongue 3 gives a feeling of strangeness such as rattling or slipping. Sometimes. In order to cope with such a problem, a hook member for restraining the webbing 2 may be attached to the body to prevent the above-mentioned swing. In this case, although a certain effect can be obtained with respect to the shaking of the webbing portion, the rattling of the tongue 3 cannot be prevented, and individual measures are required.

When the seat belt is worn, the tongue 3 is grasped by hand and pulled in the direction of the buckle 4 from the front of the seat. In this case, the tongue 3 can move along the webbing 2 so that the position of the tongue 3 is changed. It was not fixed, and in extreme cases, it was considerably slippery than the normal position, making it inconvenient.

The present invention has been made to eliminate the above problems, and can maintain a comfortable indoor environment by eliminating shaking when not worn, and furthermore, make the wearing operation possible by supporting the tongue in a fixed position. It is an object of the present invention to provide a seat belt holder that can be further improved.

[0006]

According to the present invention, to achieve the above object, one end of the seat is fixed to the floor side of the seat side, and the other end is provided via a guide member provided on the upper side of the body. A retainer applied to a seat belt having a webbing disposed so as to be able to be wound around a retractor, and a tongue movably mounted on a webbing portion between the one end fixing portion and the guide member, Fixing means attached to the body side, a substantially U-shaped holding portion for holding the webbing portion between the one end fixing portion and the guide member, and provided in the U shape of the holding portion to detachably support the tongue. The gist of the present invention is that the locking portion is integrally provided.

[0007]

When the seat belt is not worn, the webbing portion between the one-end fixing portion and the guide member is sandwiched by the holding portion, and the tongue is fixed to the locking portion. The support prevents the webbing portion from shaking and rattling of the tongue even when vibration is applied. In addition, the tongue is supported at a fixed position because the holder is attached to the body. Therefore, when the seat belt is worn, the tongue can be quickly and smoothly grasped, and the wearing operability is further improved.
