Summary:

The geometry and behavior of several front-seat passive belt configurations have been studied and evaluated. General design criteria are discussed.The preferred solution is a three-point belt with two ends attached to the door. The belt straps automatically, and for comfortable exit, the occupant may make a slight manual operation.Crash tests indicate that the belt performs approximately as a standard three-point belt. Door strength, retractor strength, strap strength and tension, seat influence, et cetera, have been tested. Curves are given for recorded and computed data, including old and new severity index
