Abstract
Disclosed is an automatic seatbelt apparatus which is capable of automatically applying, or canceling the application of, a webbing around an applicant of a vehicle as a slider to which one end of the webbing is retained along a guide rail disposed in the vicinity of the roof of the vehicle is moved in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle via a flexible elongated member driven by the driving force of a driving means. A switch, when located in its webbing-application position, is adapted to stop a motor by detecting the application of the webbing and is so disposed at this time as to be capable of moving in accordance with the bending of a flexible guide member. Accordingly, since the switch can be moved when the guide member bends, the webbing-application position can be altered even in the webbing-applied state.
