Safety seat and harness for vehicle - has impact damping coiled spring to absorb force by pivoting and harness for head

摘要

A variety of designs is claimed involving, for example, a safety belt with an impact damping coiled spring or a belt web fixture comprising a double disc closure by means of which the belt can be rapidly coupled using a hand lever. Alternatively a swivable seat back whose forward swivelling motion is controlled by a coiled tension spring which tends to return the back rest to its original position may be used or a safety harness or mask attached to a vertically adjustable head rest. The arrangements have applications in motor vehicles and aircraft.
