Abstract
A safety device in a motor vehicle comprises a roller retractor ( ) mounted at the top of the back ( ) of a vehicle seat. The roller retractor ( ) has wound on it a sheet-like element or net ( ) which is extractable from the roller to engage anchoring means secured in or adjacent the roof of the vehicle. The length of net ( ) to be extracted from the roller retractor ( ) is different in different positions of the back of the seat. The roller retractor mechanism is associated with a locking mechanism ( ) which is actuated in at least one of the alternative positions of the back of the seat to lock the extraction of more than a predetermined length of the sheet-like element from the roller retractor ( ). The length is sufficient to enable the sheet to be secured to connecting means provided in the roof of the vehicle.
