Filed: 2007-03-28
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress a bending load applied to a shearing member of an energy absorbing mechanism.  <P>SOLUTION: A shear pin 24 is inserted into both axial holes 9b, 18a in the axial direction and an male screw 24c is screwed into and fixed to a female screw 9c. The shear pin 24 is thus securely fixed to a spool 9. When relative rotation is generated between the spool 9 and a locking base 18, a shearing load acts on the shear pin 24. Since the shear pin 24 is fixed to the spool 9, the shear pin 24 is prevented from moving in the direction of coming off from the spool 9. This prevents the locking base 18 from being spaced apart from the spool 9 so that no bending load acts on the shear pin 24 and only the shearing load acts on the shear pin 24. Therefore, the load limiting action of the shear pin 24 can be performed substantially only by shearing deformation.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
