An airbag apparatus includes a longitudinal webbing guide configured to guide movement in a longitudinal direction of webbing, an inflatable airbag disposed along an outer side of the webbing guide, a bag cover configured to cover the airbag, and an upper side coupling member configured to couple a guide upper end of the webbing guide to a cover upper end of the bag cover, and move upward along the webbing together with the airbag when the airbag is inflated and deployed. A seatbelt apparatus includes the airbag apparatus.

An occupant restrainment harness configured for use in conjunction with a vehicle seatbelt system, the restrainment harness having a back panel and a front panel defining together an occupant torso accommodating space, adjustably closable by a fastener mechanism configured at the front panel; wherein the back panel is configured at a lower portion thereof with a lap strap fastener arrangement configured for receiving a lap strap of the vehicle seatbelt system, and a top shoulder strap fastener buckle centrally positioned at a top portion of the back panel.

A passenger restraint system of a vehicle includes a passenger restraint article with an interface, and a locking device that secures the interface. In some embodiments, the vehicle includes a vertical channel that enables the locking device to travel up and down. The locking device may include a camera that enables the locking device to align with the interface, and once aligned, the locking device secures the interface. In additional or alternative embodiments, the locking device includes two C-bars and a biasing element that urges the locking device into an open position. When the passenger sits or leans against the opened C-bars, the force caused by the interface on the C-bars overcomes the force applied by the biasing element, urging the C-bars into a closed position. The locking device is then secured by engaging a locking bar that pushes against a surface of the C-bars.

An improved enclosed electric motorcycle has an electric motor directly driving the rear wheel with a chain or a belt. A pair of steering handles and an accelerator foot pedal enables a driver to drive the motorcycle like an automobile. The pair of the landing wheel assemblies individually has a take-up assembly to reduce their sprung weights, and has an electric motor to increase reliability. By adding a pair of anti-skid wheels, the driver can avoid many accidents. An inflatable safety belt and a pair of side airbags will protect the driver in an accident. If the battery pack explodes, it will be ejected away from the motorcycle to protect the driver. A drive-in electric engaging device enables the driver to drive the motorcycle to engage with a stationary charging station for charging its battery pack while parking.
