BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicular seatbelt storage device for storing a seatbelt for preventing a secondary collision of an occupant or reducing the impact of the collision.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A seat belt for a vehicle is for preventing a secondary collision of an occupant or for reducing an impact due to the collision, and smoothly decelerates the occupant in a narrow space in a vehicle interior. The work protects the occupants from shocks such as collisions.

FIG. 6 shows an example of a state of arrangement of a conventional three-point seat belt. A front seat 10 is provided with a belt 12 to which a predetermined tension is applied by a tension reducer 11. A tongue 13 is attached to an end of the belt 12. Under the seat, a buckle 14 is attached via an anchor 16.

When a seat belt is used, the tongue 13 is pinched and pulled to extend the belt 12 against the urging force of the spring on the tension reducer 11 side, and then the tongue 13 is locked to the buckle 14 below the seat. Let it. Further, the shoulder height can be adjusted by adjusting the shoulder anchor vertical adjustment mechanism 15.

On the other hand, a tension reducer 21 and a shoulder anchor up / down adjustment mechanism 25 are also provided in the rear seat 20 as in the front seat 10. When a seat belt is used, the tongue 23 is pinched and pulled against the urging force of the spring on the tension reducer 21 side, and then the tongue 23 is pulled out from the boundary portion between the seat cushion 26 and the seat bag 27. To the buckle 29 attached to the end of the buckle.

However, in such a seat belt,
Paying particular attention to the rear seat 20 side, since the belt 28 with the buckle 29 attached to the end is simply pulled out from the boundary between the seat cushion 26 and the seat bag 27, the seat belt is not used. In such a case, the belt 28 and the buckle 29 are placed on the seat cushion 26 in an exposed state.

[0007] Therefore, in such a state, the seat cushion 26 does not sway, and there is a problem that a refreshing feeling cannot be obtained.

[0008] In order to solve such a problem,
For example, as shown in FIG. 7, there is a seat belt in which a through hole 30 for a belt 28 is provided in a seat cushion 26 and the belt 28 is pulled out from the through hole 30. However, in the configuration in which the belt 28 is pulled out from the through hole 30 as described above, the belt 28 can be stored by pushing the belt 28 into the through hole 30, but the buckle 29 is pushed into the through hole 30. I can't. For this reason, the buckle 29 itself may be left on the seat cushion 26, and when sitting on the seat cushion 26, the buckle 29 may be accidentally seated on the buckle 29. In such a case, discomfort such as damage is caused. I can remember.

In order to solve such a problem,
Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication No. 60-105257 discloses a seat belt storage device as shown in FIG.

That is, a storage body 32 having an insertion hole 31 for the belt 28 is embedded in the seat cushion 26. The storage body 32 has a storage volume large enough to store the buckle 29.

Therefore, in the seat belt storage device having such a configuration, when the seat belt is not used, the belt 28 is pushed down from the insertion hole 31 so that
Since the buckle 29 can be housed inside the storage body 32, the above-mentioned problem can be solved.

[0012]

However, in the seat belt storage device shown in FIG. 8 described above, the buckle 29 can be stored in the storage body 32 when the seat belt is not used, but the buckle 29 is stored in the storage body 32. Buckle 2
9 is simply dropped, so that, for example, when the vehicle vibrates during traveling, the buckle 29 may jump out of the housing 32.

Moreover, the insertion hole 31 provided in the storage body 32 has such a size that the belt 28 can be inserted, and only the insertion of the belt 28 is considered.

Therefore, when the seat belt storage device having such a configuration is applied to a device in which the rear seat 20 used in, for example, a light one-box car or the like can be folded, the seat belt storage device is disposed on a floor side (not shown). Since the seat belt 26 cannot be extended longer than necessary, the buckle 2
9 is caught on the bottom of the storage body 32, so that it cannot be applied to the foldable rear seat 20.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and a vehicle capable of properly storing and holding a seat belt without obstructing folding and returning operations of a foldable seat. It is an object of providing a seat belt storage device for a vehicle.

[0016]

And a mat having slits slightly wider than the belt at positions corresponding to the storage holes.

[0017]

In the vehicle seat belt storage device of the present invention,
When the seat belt is not used, the buckle is pushed into the storage hole having the elastic contact holding force provided in the seat cushion, so that even when the vehicle vibrates during traveling, the buckle does not jump out onto the seat cushion,
It is kept in a stable state.

Further, by attaching an elastic mat to the lower portion of the seat cushion, even if the buckle falls below the storage hole, the mat can catch the buckle.

When the seat is folded, the seat cushion is raised, and the buckle comes out of the storage hole having the elastic contact holding force, so that the belt and the buckle are separated from the seat, so that the seat can be easily folded. be able to.

Further, when returning the sheet to the original state,
Since the buckle can be pushed into the storage hole from below the seat cushion, the operation of returning the seat to the original state can be easily performed.
