Abstract

Abstract In a vehicle seatbelt system, a gripper device (16) is arranged on a belt section (10) running between a deflection fitting and the belt tensioner. In the state of rest, the belt is guided through in a freely moving fashion between the clamping elements (18, 20), lying opposite one another, of the gripper device (16). The gripper device (16) is connected via a tensioning cable (38) to a belt tensioner drive which can be of pyrotechnic or mechanical construction. The clamping elements (18, 20) are loaded against the belt by means of springs (30, 32), as a result of which a uniform contact with the said belt is ensured. <IMAGE>
