Abstract
In a vehicle emergency, rotation of a lock base in a pull-out direction opposite to a take-up direction is restricted. A first pinion-configuring portion formed at an outer circumferential portion of the lock base configures one width direction side of a pinion section that is rotated in the take-up direction by a rack that moves due to fluid pressure in a vehicle emergency. A coupling member disposed between the lock base and the torsion shaft is fixed to the lock base and to a torsion shaft. A second pinion-configuring portion that configures a width direction other side of the pinion section is formed alongside the first pinion-configuring portion at an outer circumferential portion of the coupling member.
