Abstract
A shoulder anchor height adjusting apparatus movably adjusts the height of a shoulder anchor. The shoulder anchor is attached to a slider, which is supported by a rail extending from the upper portion of the side wall of the vehicle in the vertical direction so as to be guided along the rail. Further, the slider moves in the vertical direction of the vehicle so as to move the shoulder anchor in a likewise direction. A long bolt is disposed between the slider and the rail and at the upper portion of the side wall of the vehicle. The long bolt has an axis in the vertical direction of the vehicle, and is provided so as to be rotatable about the axis. An elevator nut is screwed into the bolt, and is moved in the vertical direction of the vehicle by rotation of the bolt. An arm outwardly extends from the slider in the transverse direction of the vehicle, has a contact portion for contacting the elevator nut. The arm moves the slider in the vertical direction of the vehicle since the contact portion is pushed by the elevator nut as the elevator nut moves in the vertical direction.
