Abstract
Means are disclosed for adjusting the effective position from which the shoulder or diagonal belt of a vehicle seat belt system downwardly extends. A strap is secured to extend around the seat back portion in an upright direction and slidably carries a connector to which the belt can be connected. Alternatively the upper part of the seat back portion is clamped between limbs of a U-shaped member, the front limb mounting a connector for the belt, preferably a position which can be selectively adjusted. A third embodiment comprises a strap arranged to extend upright adjacent the seat as on a door pillar, a connector for the belt being slidable along the strap. Where the system includes a running loop for guiding the belt from a retractor, one end of the strap with the connection can be connected to a second loop secured to the running loop or both loops can be mounted for swivelling independently.
