Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
119 words
An emergency release mechanism in a passive restraint safety belt system comprising a vehicle having at least one door, a guide extending in a longitudinal direction of said vehicle on the inside of said door, a slide moveably mounted on said guide, a coupling means being positioned on and near the rear lower edge of said door, locking means being connected to said vehicle and detachably connected to said coupling means for at time locking said door closed, releasing means detachably connecting said coupling means, slide and belt, a second releasing means detachably connecting said coupling means and said locking means and means capable of operating both said releasing means and being accessible from the outside of said door.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
119 words
An emergency release mechanism in a passive restraint safety belt system comprising a vehicle having at least one door, a guide extending in a longitudinal direction of said vehicle on the inside of said door, a slide moveably mounted on said guide, a coupling means being positioned on and near the rear lower edge of said door, locking means being connected to said vehicle and detachably connected to said coupling means for at time locking said door closed, releasing means detachably connecting said coupling means, slide and belt, a second releasing means detachably connecting said coupling means and said locking means and means capable of operating both said releasing means and being accessible from the outside of said door.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
112 words
An emergency release mechanism as claimed in claim 1 wherein said first releasing means includes a pin connected to said slide and having a lateral opening, a member connected to said belt having a opening with said pin detachably extending therethrough, said second releasing means including a pin connected to said coupling means and having a lateral opening, a plate having an opening with said second pin detachably extending therethrough and a second opening capable of detachably receiving a portion of said locking means, an arm pivotally mounted on said coupling means and having lateral pins detachably inserted in both said releasing means pin lateral openings and operably by said operating means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
45 words
An emergency release mechanism as claimed in claim 2 Wherein said coupling means extend parallel to said door, a pin extends laterally from said coupling means and said arm is pivotally mounted on said pin and said pins extend in opposite directions to one another.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
55 words
An emergency release mechanism as claimed in claim 3 wherein said coupling means is moveable in the longitudinal direction of said guide between two end stations located relatively close to one another with said coupling means at one station being free from said locking means and at the other station coupled to said locking means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
46 words
An emergency release mechanism as claimed in claim 4 wherein said pivoting arm is stationary and is provided with end portions designed to mate with corresponding portions to the cotter movable in the longitudinal direction of the rail, when the runner reaches its rear end position.
