Abstract
In a seat belt apparatus, a first projecting portion and a second projecting portion which are capable of being brought into abutment with each other so that a switch lever is shifted from a switch OFF position to a switch ON position are provided on a side of a drive gear and a side of a first gear, respectively. A third projecting portion and a fourth projecting portion, which are capable of being brought into abutment with each other so that the switch lever is shifted from the switch ON position to the switch OFF position, are provided on the side of the first gear and a side of a second gear. An abutment position between the first and second projecting portions and an abutment position between the third and fourth projecting portions differ from each other in an axial direction of a spindle.
