Abstract
The disclosure relates to a passenger restraint system for automobiles and the like and, more particularly, to an improved seat belt system. A seat belt is stored on floor and pillar mounted retractors. A tonque is mounted on said belt for acceptance in a complimentary buckle. The floor mounted retractor and buckle are electrically connected so as to control the condition of the retractor. Effort required of a passenger to draw the tongue across his body and couple the tongue into the buckle is minimized due to the use of relatively light springs and the absence of clutches. Moreover, spurious locking of the floor retractor is precluded.
