Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION "Field of Industrial Application" The present invention relates to a seat belt auxiliary device that enables proper use of safety seat belts in automobiles.

It is particularly suitable for seated persons who need to protect their abdomens, such as pregnant women.

``Prior Art'' FIG. 4 shows how seat belts are worn in automobiles that are commonly used today.

As is well known, in this type of three-point seatbelt 5, the belt is hooked from a storage device 6 with a built-in locking mechanism to a first locking point 6a, then to a second locking point 7 and a third locking point 8. use.

In this state, with respect to the human body l seated on the seat 4, the portion 5b between the first and third locking points obliquely restrains the upper body of the human body l, and between the second and third locking points, the human body l The lower abdomen 3 is suppressed.

In the three-point seat belt, after the seat belt 5 is seated between the first locking point 6a and the second locking point 7, and the seat is seated on the seat 4, the locking pin A8 on the seat belt 5 is inserted. It can be attached by simply pulling the handle a and fitting it into the buckle 8b of the third locking point 8, and is widely used because it is convenient to handle and can reliably protect the human body.

``Problem to be solved by the invention'' However, the conventional three-point seat belt described above has the second problem.
Since the seat belt restrains the abdomen of the human body between the third locking point, it is not necessarily suitable for people who need to protect their abdomen, such as pregnant women.

In other words, 1. Even when worn normally, it puts pressure on a pregnant woman's abdomen and has a negative impact on the fetus.Furthermore, in an emergency such as a sudden stop or collision, even if the mother's body is safe, it can have a fatal effect on the workplace. do not have.

In view of the above-mentioned problems with the conventional three-point seat belt, the present invention provides a seat belt auxiliary device that allows the conventional three-point seat belt to be used as is and is safe for pregnant women and the like. The purpose is to

The gist of the present invention for solving the above problems is to provide a first locking point at the upper side of the vehicle next to the seat of the seated person, and a first locking point at the side of the seat on the rotation side. A seat that is used with a 3-point seatbelt that has a second anchoring point under the thighs of a seated person, and a third anchoring point on the side of the seat on the opposite side of the seat from the second anchoring point. A belt auxiliary device, wherein the front and rear width of the auxiliary device main body is at least larger than the belt width of the three-point seat belt and smaller than the length of the thigh of a human body, and the auxiliary device main body has a thigh of a seated person. a pair of upwardly curved portions are formed at symmetrical positions in the left and right longitudinal directions, and a pair of upwardly curved portions are formed at an intermediate portion of the assisting device body between the two curved portions, and the first and second curved portions face forward. The present invention resides in a seatbelt auxiliary tool characterized by having an L-shaped hook protruding from which a belt that is passed between two anchoring points and a third anchoring point is hooked.

``Operation'' Place the seat belt auxiliary device on the seat, place the thighs of both legs on it, and sit down, then extend the seat belt as usual and connect the belt's IF metal fitting to the second locking point. The middle part of the seatbelt is hooked onto the hook of the seatbelt auxiliary tool, and the seatbelt's locking fitting is fitted into the buckle to complete the wearing of the seatbelt.

When removing the seatbelt, the seatbelt locking fitting is removed from the buckle, and then the loosened seatbelt is removed from the hook portion.

By using it as described above, the portion between the second and third locking points of the three-point seatbelt, which conventionally compressed the abdomen of a pregnant woman, now supports the thighs of the pregnant woman at both ends.
Even in the event of a sudden stop, the above-mentioned portion of the belt is clamped between both legs and crotch, and does not put pressure on the abdomen, making it safe for seated occupants who need to protect their abdomens, such as pregnant women.

“Embodiment” An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings. Note that the same parts as in the conventional example are given the same reference numerals.

In FIG. 2, the seat belt 5 is of a so-called three-point type, and the seat belt 5 is fed out from a storage device 6 equipped with a locking mechanism and a feeding mechanism, and is placed at a first locking point 6a.
The pJS2 locking point 7 is located below and beside the seat on the same side of the seat 4 as the first locking point 6a, and the third locking point 8 is located at the side of the seat 4 on the same side as the first locking point 6a. It is provided on the opposite side to the locking point 7.

The third locking point 8 is the buckle 8 originally installed at this position.
b is formed by fitting a locking fitting 8a to the seat belt 5.

The seat belt 5 has a portion 5b between the first locking point 6a and the third locking point 8, and a portion 5 between the second locking point 7 and the third locking point 8.
It is divided into a.

The seat belt auxiliary device 1O is attached to the thighs 2a, 2 of the legs of the human body 1.
b, and the part 5a of the seat belt 5
is hooked to the hook portion 13 of the seat belt auxiliary device 10.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the seat belt auxiliary AIO.
, 2b, a pair of upwardly curved portions 11a, ll
b, and the intermediate portion between both curved portions 11a and llb is connected by a flat portion 12.

It has a proximal end at the rear end 14a of the flat part 12, and the L-shaped hook 13 protrudes so as to open toward the front end 14b.

It is better that the length of the hook portion 13 is slightly longer than the width of the seat belt 5, and the width of the seat belt auxiliary device 10, that is, the longitudinal width between the rear end portion 14a and the front end portion 14b is equal to the width of the seat belt 5. Wider than the width of 5, the thigh part of the leg of the human body l
It is set smaller than the lengths of a and 2b.

In this embodiment, the curved portions 11a, llb, the flat portion 1
2 and the hook portion 13 are integrally formed.

Further, both lower surfaces of the curved portions 1° la and 1 lb are covered with soft cushioning cloth 15 or the like.

Figure 3 is a view in the direction of the ■ arrow in Figure 2.
, 2b is shown sandwiched between a portion 5a of the seat belt 5 and a seat belt auxiliary device 10.

Next, the effect will be explained.

When wearing a seatbelt, first place the seatbelt aid 10 on the seat 4. At this time, the front end portion 14b is directed toward the direction of travel of the vehicle. And the curved parts 11a, l
Leg thigh 2a to lb.

Lay it out so that you can comfortably sit on seat 2b, and take a seat on seat 4.

When seated, the hook portion 13 is positioned so that it can be seen from between the large portions 2a and 2b. Next, as usual, hold the locking metal fitting 8a of the seat belt 5, and while stretching the seat belt 5,
Push the middle part between the locking point 7 and the locking metal fitting 8a with the tip of your finger to fit it into the hook portion 13, and then fit the locking metal fitting 8a into the buckle 8b.

After adjusting the lengths of the parts 5a and 5b of the seatbelt 5 and the position of the seatbelt auxiliary device 10, it is confirmed that the seatbelt is in the optimum condition, and the wearing of the seatbelt is completed.

When unfastening, the locking metal fitting 8a is removed from the buckle 8b, and when the seat belt 5 is loosened, it is also removed from the hook 13 at the same time, so that the seat belt 5 becomes unfastened and the seated person is released.

``Effects of the Invention'' The seat belt auxiliary device according to the present invention is a simple and inexpensive auxiliary device that is different from the conventional three-point seat belt, which can put pressure on the abdomen and be dangerous for pregnant women, etc. can be safely used by pregnant women and the like without making any changes, and can improve the safety of special occupants who need to protect their abdomens.
