Abstract
A belt retractor for a vehicle safety belt comprises a belt spool () rotatably mounted in a frame () and a coupling disc () rotatably mounted relative to the belt spool. With a rotation relative to the belt spool, the coupling disc can bring about a locking of the rotation of the belt spool in unwinding direction of the safety belt. The belt spool has a first friction element () and the coupling disc has a second friction element (). The first and second friction elements are positioned such that they are able to connect the belt spool and the coupling disc with each other with a friction fit.
