A webbing take-up device includes clutch weights. The clutch weights are supported at the base and include engaging portions. The clutch weights move to a rotation diameter direction outer side when the base is rotated, and are capable of transmitting rotary force applied to the base to the spool. The webbing take-up device is provided with a stopper that is capable of relative rotating relative to the base and that is provided with engaged holes, each including an allowing portion and a restricting portion. The allowing portions allow movement of the engaging portions to the rotation diameter direction outer side when the base is rotating to one side. The restricting portions restrict movement of the engaging portions to the rotation diameter direction outer side when the base is rotating to the other side. The restricting portions are formed integrally with the allowing portions.

A seat belt retractor (40) having a belt spool (14), a seat belt (12) that can be wound thereon to a belt spool, and at least a first and a second assembly (1, 2), wherein the first and the second assembly (1, 2) are arranged coaxially to each other and at a first angle (A) to the rotational axis (B) of the belt spool (14) and are connected together by a flex coupling or an angular gear.

A webbing take-up device that includes: a cut-off section that cuts off transmission of rotation load along a rotation force transmission route from a second rotation force transmission mechanism to a spool via a first rotation force transmission mechanism due to the rotation load in a pull-out direction becoming a predetermined value or greater; and a resistance section that resists the rotation load during transmission of the rotation load, and that suppresses transmission of the rotation load along the rotation force transmission route in a case in which the rotation load is less than the predetermined value.

A webbing take-up device is provided with a spool that takes up a webbing, a lock base, and a cover plate that covers an outer periphery of the lock base. A tooth portion is formed at the outer periphery of the lock base. The lock base rotates the spool when a rack contacts the tooth portion. The webbing take-up device is further provided with a guide provided at the cover plate. The guide supports the lock base to be rotatable. Thus, contacting together of the ratchet teeth and the lock base is restricted.

A belt retractor for a motor vehicle seat belt device, with a rotatably mounted belt reel onto which a seat belt is wound, and a belt tensioner with a drive wheel (1), which drives the belt reel in the event of an activation. A positively controlled tensioner coupling transfers the drive movement from the drive wheel (1) onto the belt reel. At least one coupling pawl (2,3) mounted on the drive wheel (1) and which is moved into and out of engagement with a toothing (20) rotationally fixed in relation to the belt reel to establish and disconnect a rotational connection of the drive wheel (1) with the belt reel. A friction ring (4) has a control arm (11) coupled with the coupling pawl (2,3), wherein in the event of an activation of the belt tensioner, the friction ring (4) performs a relative movement to the drive wheel (1) by frictional forces and, controls via the control arm (11) the movement of the coupling pawl (2,3) into engagement and disengagement with the toothing (20). The friction ring (4) and/or the coupling pawl (2,3) has a blocking contour (12), positioned such that the coupling pawl (2,3) abuts thereon after the disengaging movement out of the toothing (20) and is blocked in the direction of a repeated engagement movement into the toothing (20).

A pretensioner includes a driving wheel and a power transmission unit. A spool is rotatably disposed in the driving wheel. The spool winds a webbing. The power transmission unit transmits power to the driving wheel. The power transmission unit includes a resin-made long body and a passage of the resin-made long body. The resin-made long body rotates the driving wheel. The passage is formed in an outer circumference of the driving wheel. The passage includes a wall surface, a cover member and a stopper. The wall surface is disposed on one side surface of the driving wheel. The cover member is fixed in the wall surface from the other side surface of the driving wheel. The stopper stops a tip portion of the resin-made long body which has rotated the driving wheel. The stopper is configured by a fastening member connecting the cover member and the wall surface.

In a coupling (18) for a belt tensioner (10) in a vehicle comprising an input element (26), an output element (34), a coupling element (28) which is movably supported between an initial position and an activated position and in the activated position couples the input element (26) to the output element (34), and a control element (36) which upon movement of the input element (26) relative to the control element (36) moves the coupling element (28) between the initial position and the activated position, the control element (36) is coupled to an inertia mass (36).

A webbing take-up device includes a spool, a lock gear that restricts pull-out direction rotation of the spool, a force limiter mechanism that permits pull-out direction rotation of the spool at or above a force limiter load, and a pawl that switches the force limiter load. The webbing take-up device further includes a cylinder section that includes a first cylindrical portion and a second cylindrical portion, a gas generator that supplies gas into the second cylindrical portion, and a piston section that is moved along the first cylindrical portion by an increase in pressure inside the second cylindrical portion and the first cylindrical portion so as to press and displace the pawl. An axial center of the second cylindrical portion is disposed offset with respect to an axial center of the first cylindrical portion, and an abutted portion that is abutted by the piston section is provided at a boundary between the first cylindrical portion and the second cylindrical portion.

An engagement and disengagement device used in a seat belt retractor including a first rotating member capable of being driven to rotate about a rotation axis thereof, a second rotating member provided coaxially with the first rotating member and connected to a reel of the seat belt retractor in an anti-torsion manner, and a transmission member provided between the first and second rotating member. The first rotating member is capable of transmitting torque to the second rotating member by means of the transmission member. The transmission member includes a holder and a transmission element in the holder. A first elastic component elastically holds the transmission element by radially exerting a force that enables the transmission element to be located away from the first or the second rotating member, and the first elastic component is integrated on the holder.

An increase in structural complexity is suppressed in a webbing take-up device provided with a force limiter load switching mechanism and a pre-tensioner mechanism. The webbing take-up device includes a spool that takes up a webbing, a pre-tensioner mechanism that takes up the webbing onto the spool by rotating the spool in the take-up direction in a vehicle emergency, and a lock mechanism that restricts pull-out direction rotation of the spool in a vehicle emergency. The webbing take-up device further includes a force limiter mechanism that permits pull-out direction rotation of the spool at a force limiter load or greater when the lock mechanism has restricted pull-out direction rotation of the spool, and a force limiter load switching mechanism that switches a force limiter load value by being input with a portion of an actuation force that actuates the pre-tensioner mechanism.
