Abstract
A seat belt is provided for the protection of vehicle occupants of an automobile against accidents that includes, but is not limited to a webbing for restraining the vehicle occupant, a locking tongue movably connected to the webbing in a longitudinal direction of the webbing for locking with a belt lock, and a textile retaining device connected immovably to the webbing, having an insertion opening for at least partial receipt of the locking tongue. The retaining device forms an outlet opening opposite the insertion opening. Since the region opposite the insertion opening is not closed, but open, the design structure of the retaining device can be simplified and a simpler fastening of the retaining device to the webbing can be achieved, so that the manufacture of the seat belt is simplified.
