Abstract
The invention relates to a device for clamping a safety belt to prevent it being unwound from a belt reel, the device consisting of a housing in which is provided a lever, one end of the lever being pivotably mounted in the housing, a clamping surface being provided on the lever intermediate its ends which co-operates with a clamping surface provided on the housing, the lever being resiliently urged to move about its pivot in a direction to separate the clamping surfaces. The belt is guided around the pivoted end of the lever, extends between the clamping surfaces and is guided around the free end of the lever, the resilient means applying a tension force to the belt. Movement of the lever against the force of the resilient means moving the clamping surface on the lever towards the clamping surface on the housing to clamp the belt therebetween.
