Abstract

A spindle () of a seat belt retractor is rotationally driven when required by a motor () to the webbing take-up direction side through a power transmission mechanism section (). Further, the spindle () is always connected to a take-up spring () and is always subjected to rotational power acting to the webbing take-up side. The structure enables a user wearing a seat belt to be restrained even in failure, realizing a safer and more reliable restraining device.
