MOTOR VEHICLE

Abstract

A motor vehicle (1) has a seat (7), a seatbelt (8), a deflector (5), longitudinal and vertical guide rails (2, 4), and first and second guide elements (3, 9). The seatbelt (8) is configured to secure a person seated in the seat (7) and is deflected by the deflector (5). The first guide element (3) is guided displaceably in a longitudinal direction (L) of the motor vehicle (1) in the longitudinal guide rail (2). The vertical guide rail (4) is fastened to the first guide element (3) and is displaced upon displacement of the first guide element (3). The second guide element (9) is guided displaceably in a vertical direction of the motor vehicle (1) in the vertical guide rail (4). The deflector (5) is fastened to the second guide element (9) so that the deflector (5) also is displaced upon displacement of the second guide element (9).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The motor vehicle 1 comprises a longitudinal guide rail 2, a first guide element 3, a vertical guide rail 4, a deflection means 5, a second guide element 9, and a fixed point 6 via which the vertical guide rail 4 is connected hingedly to the body of the motor vehicle 1.

[0027] The first guide element 3 is guided in the longitudinal guide rail 2 and is displaceable in the longitudinal direction L of the motor vehicle 1. The vertical guide rail 4 is fastened hingedly to the first guide element 3. Upon a displacement of the first guide element 3 in the longitudinal direction L, the end of the vertical guide rail 4 connected to the first guide element 3 also is moved translationally. Due to the fastening to the fixed point 6, a pivoting movement takes place about a geometric axis extending through the fixed point 6.

[0028] The second guide element 9 is guided in the vertical guide rail 4 and is displaceable in the direction R. The direction R changes as a function of the position of the first guide element 3 in the longitudinal guide rail 2 due to the pivotability of the vertical guide rail 4 about the geometric axis. However, the direction R always includes a component in the vertical direction of the motor vehicle.

[0029] The deflection means 5 is fastened to the second guide element 9 and is moved in a similar manner as the second guide element 9 when the second guide element 9 is moved. Thus, a user can adjust the position of the deflection means 5 by a displacement of the first guide element 3 and the second guide element 9. The position in the longitudinal direction L is adjusted by a displacement of the first guide element 3 in the longitudinal direction L, while a position of the deflection means 5 in the vertical direction can also be adjusted by a displacement of the second guide element 9 in the direction R.

[0030] FIG. 2 shows a seatbelt 8 extending over a seat 7 so that it can secure a person. The course of the seatbelt 8, in particular in the chest area of the person, is substantially determined by the position of the deflection means 5, through which the seatbelt 8 extends.

[0031] In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, a drive 10 is provided, which can be configured as a spindle drive and is configured to displace the first guide element 3 in the longitudinal direction L. Thus, the position of the deflection means 5 in the longitudinal direction L can be adjusted by a user in a particularly comfortable manner.

[0032] In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, a winding means 11 is provided, on which a majority of the seatbelt 8 can be wound. This is advantageous for stowing the seatbelt 8 in a space-saving manner when not in use. The winding means 11 is arranged in the longitudinal direction L behind the longitudinal guide rail 2 on the roof spar 12 of the motor vehicle 1. For example, the winding means 11 can be arranged approximately in the area of the C-pillar of the motor vehicle 1.

[0033] The position of the winding means 11 is particularly advantageous for the forces acting on the longitudinal guide rail 2 and/or the roof spar 12.
