2. Description of the Related Art An automobile seat belt restrains an occupant from a collision accident by restraining his / her body in a seat. The winding of the seat belt is performed by the spring force of the mainspring, and the seat belt is pulled out against the spring force, the tongue is inserted into the buckle, and the seat belt is attached to the occupant. At that time, the spring force exerts a force in the winding direction to tighten the chest of the body, and the occupant feels a feeling of pressure by the seat belt. Therefore, when the seat belt is worn, it is necessary to reduce the seat belt retracting force to ease the tightening of the chest and reduce the occupant's feeling of tightness to improve the wearing feeling.

Therefore, in order to reduce the seat belt retracting force, conventionally, two mainspring springs having different strengths are combined so that the two springs acting when the seatbelt is pulled out and stored are weak, while the springs are weak when the seatbelt is worn. It is known that only the spring acts to reduce the winding force (Japanese Patent Publication No. 60-30576).

According to the above-described seat belt retractor for an automobile, two mainspring springs are combined and two mainspring springs are combined to pull out the seatbelt, and the two mainspring springs are used for storing and mounting. However, since the mainspring is expensive, the use of two mainsprings is limited to high-grade vehicle specifications, and the structure such as the switching mechanism is complicated and the cost is high. In addition, a mainspring with a weak output has a complicated shape, which requires a lot of machining time and management to achieve a required life, and is expensive.

The operation of the present invention based on the above configuration will be described below. First, as shown in the mainspring spring output graph of FIG. 4, the mainspring spring (6) requires an output when it is housed, so it is prewound to store the output. Seat belt (8)
When pulling out, the solenoid (12) is turned off and the movable shaft (12a) is projected by the return spring (13), and the ratchet pawl (5) is attached to the ratchet tooth (4a).
Detach from. Therefore, if the seat belt (8) is pulled out against the output of the mainspring, the seat belt reel (1
0) and the shaft (2) rotate clockwise and are sequentially fed out. At this time, the ratchet wheel (4) idles with respect to the output of the mainspring, and the winding member (3) expands in the radial direction by the clockwise rotation of the shaft (2), so the output of the mainspring (6) directly. , Acts on the seat belt drawer.

Next, when the tongue of the seat belt (8) is inserted into the buckle and the occupant restrains his body with the seat belt (8) and wears it, the solenoid (12) is automatically turned on by an electric switch. The movable shaft (12a) retracts. Then, the ratchet claw (5) is attached to the ratchet tooth (4
The ratchet wheel (4) meshes with a) and stops against counterclockwise rotation, and the position of the winding member (3) is also fixed.

On the other hand, when the seat belt (8) is worn, the seat belt (8) is slightly wound by the mainspring output in order to fit the body, and the shaft (2).
Rotates counterclockwise. As a result, the ratchet wheel (4) is stopped, and the winding member (3) is tightened at a fixed position by the counterclockwise rotation of the shaft (2), so that the winding member (3) has a large friction with the shaft (2). Generate force. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, the frictional force acts as a braking force on the mainspring spring output to control / reduce the winding force of the seat belt (8) due to the mainspring spring output. In the case of a torsion spring, the frictional force is determined by the number of turns, press fit and surface roughness, and in the case of a cylindrical leaf spring, it is determined by plate area, press fit and surface roughness.

1. A shaft interlocking with an automobile seat belt winding shaft, an endless elastic winding member press-fitted to the shaft, and a winding member when the shaft rotates in the winding direction together with the winding member when the seat belt is mounted . Stop the movement of one end of the member
And tighten the winding member around the shaft.
The seat spring is provided with a position regulating means for exerting a frictional force between the shaft and the winding member and a mainspring spring having a winding core fixed to the shaft. When the shaft is rotated in the winding direction together with the winding member when the belt is attached, the frictional force between the winding member and the shaft acts as a braking force for the spring output, reducing the winding force when the seat belt is attached. A seat belt retractor for automobiles.

2. A ratchet, wherein a shaft that interlocks with a seat belt winding shaft for an automobile, an endless elastic winding member that is press fitted to the shaft, and one end of the winding member that is fitted and inserted into the winding member are fixed. Equipped with an annular ratchet wheel that stops or idles in a predetermined direction due to the engagement or disengagement of pawls, and a spring that has a winding core fixed to a shaft.When the seat belt is pulled out and stored, the ratchet wheel is idled. When the shaft is rotated in the winding direction when the seat belt is attached by applying spring output, the ratchet wheel is stopped and the frictional force between the winding member and the shaft acts as a braking force for the spring output. A seat belt retractor for an automobile, which is characterized by reducing a retracting force.
