[0057] The core of the present application is to provide a belt force adjustable retractor and a belt force adjusting device, so as to simplify the structure, reduce the cost and improve the adaptability under the premise of being able to adjust the belt force according to different automobile working conditions.

[0058] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the protection scope of the present application.

[0059] Embodiment one

[0060] AsFigure 1 as shown, Figure 1 A structure schematic diagram of the belt force adjustable retractor provided by the present application.

[0061] The first embodiment discloses a belt force adjustable retractor, which comprises a retractor body 200 for storing and locking a belt, and a belt force adjusting device 100 for assisting the belt retraction or release under a predetermined working condition, the belt 300 is connected with the reel of the retractor body 200 after passing through the belt force adjusting device 100, and the belt force adjusting device 100 can adjust the belt force of the belt retraction or release according to different working conditions of the vehicle.

[0062] In actual application, the belt force adjusting device 100 receives corresponding working mode instructions from the vehicle CAN bus according to different working conditions of the vehicle, selects the belt retraction or release 300, and adjusts the size of the belt force according to different working conditions of the vehicle.

[0063] For example, in some specific embodiments, the belt force adjustable retractor has:

[0064] The first state of normal driving of the vehicle, wherein the belt force adjusting device 100 does not act, the belt can be normally pulled out and retracted, and the passenger comfort is improved;

[0065] The second state of the vehicle with potential risk (such as deviating from the lane line), wherein the belt force adjusting device 100 repeatedly pulls and vibrates the belt, reminds the driver to take measures, and the belt force is 20-60 N;

[0066] The third state of the vehicle emergency braking or steering (such as automatic avoidance of emergency braking), wherein the belt force adjusting device 100 retracts the belt, effectively restrains the upper body of the passenger, prevents excessive forward or lateral inclination, and the belt force is 100-200 N;

[0067] The fourth state of the vehicle collision being inevitable, wherein the belt force adjusting device 100 retracts the belt, quickly eliminates the belt gap, and adjusts the passenger to the best posture, and the belt force is 100-200 N;

[0068] The fifth state of the vehicle after the collision, wherein the pre-tightening function of the retractor body 200 starts to quickly tighten the belt, and the passenger is firmly fixed on the seat, and the belt force is 2000-4000 N.

[0069] It should be noted that, in the event of a vehicle collision, the action of the webbing force adjustment device 100 occurs before the pre-tensioning of the webbing by the retractor body 200 itself. For example, moment before a collision, the webbing force adjustment device 100 receives a "vehicle collision is inevitable" operating mode from the vehicle's CAN bus. At this time, the webbing force adjustment device 100 quickly rewinds the webbing to eliminate webbing gaps, adjusting the occupant to the optimal posture, with a webbing force of 100-200N. Subsequently, the collision occurs, and the flame generator (MGG) of the retractor body 200 is activated, initiating the pre-tensioning function of the retractor body 200, thereby rapidly pre-tensioning the webbing and firmly securing the occupant to the seat, with a webbing force of approximately 2000-4000N. The structural features and working principle of the webbing force adjustment device 100 will be described in detail in Embodiment 2 below.

[0070] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the adjustable webbing force retractor has a separate structure design for the webbing force adjustment device 100 and the retractor body 200. The webbing force adjustment device 100 is used to adjust the webbing force according to different vehicle operating conditions before a collision, and the retractor body 200 is used to pre-tighten and lock the webbing after a collision. Compared with the background technology, this adjustable webbing force retractor simplifies the structure, reduces development difficulty, and lowers costs due to the separate design of the webbing force adjustment device 100 and the retractor body 200. Furthermore, because the webbing force adjustment device 100 and the retractor body 200 are designed separately, the webbing force adjustment device 100 can be adapted to different types of retractor bodies 200.

[0071] Example 2

[0072] like Figures 2-4 As shown, Figure 2 A three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of the webbing force adjustment device 100 provided by the present invention; Figure 3 A top view of the webbing force adjusting device 100 provided by the present invention; Figure 4 This is an exploded view of the webbing force adjustment device 100 provided by the present invention.

[0073] This embodiment 2 discloses a webbing force adjustment device 100, including: a frame 110, an active roller 120 and a driven roller 130 rotatably arranged on the frame 110, a power drive device 140 for driving the active roller 120 to rotate, and a controller (not shown in the figure) for receiving vehicle body signals and controlling the operation of the power drive device 140 according to the vehicle body signals.

[0074] The driving roller 120 and the driven roller 130 are connected by a transmission, so that the driven roller 130 rotates synchronously with the driving roller 120.

[0075] like Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5The structure schematic diagram of the driving roller shaft and the driven roller shaft in the initial state is provided.

[0076] The outer peripheral wall of the driving roller shaft 120 and the driven roller shaft 130 are provided with the shaft teeth which are engaged with each other, specifically, the first shaft teeth 120-1 are provided on the outer peripheral wall of the driving roller shaft 120, the second shaft teeth 130-1 are provided on the outer peripheral wall of the driven roller shaft 130, and the first shaft teeth 120-1 and the second shaft teeth 130-1 are engaged with each other. And a certain position of the driving roller shaft 120 is designed with missing teeth to form a gap 120-2, and the gap 120-2 cooperates with the first shaft teeth 130-1 of the driven roller shaft 130 to form a channel for the free passing of the belt 300.

[0077] In the actual application process, in the initial state, the belt 300 can smoothly slide through the channel between the gap 120-2 and the second shaft teeth 130-1, without affecting the normal unwinding or rewinding of the belt 300, that is, the belt 300 can be freely unwound or rewound in the normal state without affecting the normal use. In the predetermined working condition, the controller controls the power driving device 140 to drive the driving roller shaft 120 to rotate forward or reverse, the first shaft teeth 120-1 of the driving roller shaft 120 are engaged with the second shaft teeth 130-1 of the driven roller shaft 130, and in this process, the outer profiles of the first shaft teeth 120-1 and the second shaft teeth 130-1 cooperate to clamp the belt 300 and drive the belt 300 to rewind or release. For example, the driving roller shaft 120 rotates forward to rewind the belt, and reverses to release the belt.

[0078] The specific working process of the belt force adjusting device 100 will be described in detail below.

[0079] When the vehicle is in the normal driving working condition, the controller outputs the control signal of the normal driving to control the power driving device 140 to be inactive, and the belt 300 can smoothly slide without affecting the normal unwinding or rewinding of the belt, thereby improving the comfort of the passengers;

[0080] When the vehicle is in the working condition with potential risks (for example, deviating from the lane line), the controller outputs the control signal of the warning mode to control the power driving device 140 to repeatedly rotate forward and reverse, which can realize the repeated pulling and vibrating of the belt 300 to remind the driver to take corresponding measures, and the belt force is 20-60N;

[0081] When the vehicle is in the working condition of emergency braking or steering (for example, automatic avoidance of emergency braking), the controller outputs the control signal of the warning mode and controls the power driving device 140 to tighten the belt, which effectively restricts the upper body of the passenger to prevent excessive forward or lateral inclination, and the belt force is 100-200N;

[0082] When the vehicle is in the situation where the collision is inevitable, the controller outputs the output signal of the collision mode and controls the power driving device 140 to quickly tighten the belt, quickly eliminate the belt gap, and adjust the passenger to the optimal posture, with the belt force being 100-200 N.

[0083] As can be seen from the above description, the belt force adjusting device can select the belt 300 to be rolled back or released according to different working conditions of the vehicle, and adjust the size of the belt force according to different working conditions of the vehicle, with a simple structure and low cost, and the belt force adjusting function is realized.

[0084] As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 , in order to further optimize the above technical solution, a transmission gear pair is arranged between the driving roller shaft 120 and the driven roller shaft 130. Specifically, the transmission gear pair includes a driving gear 160 fixed to one end of the driving roller shaft 120, and a driven gear 170 fixed to one end of the driven roller shaft 130 and engaged with the driving gear 160. When the driving roller shaft 160 is actuated in response to the actuation of the power driving device 140, the driven roller shaft 170 can be driven to rotate simultaneously through the transmission gear pair, thereby improving the ability to roll back or release the belt 300.

[0085] As shown in Figure 4 , in some specific embodiments, the power driving device 140 includes a motor 140-1 and a cycloid reducer 140-2. The output end of the motor 140-1 is connected with the cycloid reducer 140-2, and the output end of the cycloid reducer 140-2 is connected with the driving roller shaft 120.

[0086] In actual application, the controller outputs the corresponding control signal to control the motor 140-1 to act, and the driving roller shaft 120 is driven to rotate after the torque is increased by the cycloid reducer.

[0087] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the driving roller shaft 120 is a hollow shaft structure, and the inner hole thereof serves as the accommodation space of the above-mentioned power driving device 140. The motor 140-1 and the cycloid reducer 140-2 are accommodated in the inner hole of the driving roller shaft 120 and fixed to the frame 110, and the cycloid wheel of the cycloid reducer 140-2 is engaged with the key teeth on the inner hole wall of the driving roller shaft 120. When arranged, the cycloid reducer 140-2 and the motor 140-1 are arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the driving roller shaft 120, and the overall structure is compact and small in volume.

[0088] As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 4 , in some specific embodiments, the frame body 110-1 of the frame 110 is provided with a mounting hole, and the driving roller shaft 120 can be rotatably arranged in the mounting hole. The driven roller shaft 130 is rotatably arranged in the mounting hole through the support shafts 150 (seeFigure 6 、 Figure 7 ) two supports 110-2 rotatably supported on the outer side of the frame body 110-1.

[0089] It should be noted that when the vehicle is involved in a collision accident, the pre-tightening function of the retractor body 200 is activated and the belt 300 is quickly tightened, and the belt force is 2000N-4000N. At this time, under the action of the huge belt force, the driven roller shaft 130 is forced to move away from the driving roller shaft 120, thereby loosening the belt 300, and thus the pre-tightening function of the retractor body 200 itself is not affected after the vehicle is involved in a collision. The movement of the driven roller shaft 130 away from the driving roller shaft 120 is achieved by plastic deformation of the support shaft 150 at both ends of the driven roller shaft 130.

[0090] That is, after the driving roller shaft 120 is rotated to the set position, the belt 300 is clamped and maintained until the flame generator (MGG) is detonated, the belt force on one side increases sharply, the transverse force generated thereby causes the support shaft 150 of the driven roller shaft 130 to plastically deform, so that the driven roller shaft 130 and the driving roller shaft 120 are separated, and the belt 300 is no longer clamped, ensuring that the subsequent pre-tightening function of the retractor body 200 can be smoothly implemented and will not affect the subsequent force limiting function, etc.

[0091] Preferably, in order to improve the plastic deformation effect of the support shaft 150, the support shaft 150 penetrates the driven roller shaft 130, and recessed holes 130-2 exposing the support shaft 150 are provided at both ends of the driven roller shaft 130 to form cantilevered ends at both ends of the support shaft 150, as shown in Figure 7 When the vehicle is involved in a collision, the pre-tightening function of the retractor body 200 is activated, the belt 300 forces the driven roller shaft 130 to move away from the driving roller shaft 120 to loosen the belt 300. In this embodiment, the two ends of the support shaft 150 are designed as cantilevered ends, which are more prone to plastic deformation, to ensure that the belt 300 can be loosened after the pre-tightening function is activated, and the pre-tightening function of the retractor body 200 itself is not affected.

[0092] In some specific embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 , a position sensor is provided on the driving roller shaft 120 to record the circumferential position of the driving roller shaft 120 and upload it to the controller. In actual application, the position sensor marks the initial state of the driving roller shaft 120, and when the function requirement of the belt force adjusting device 100 is completed, the controller finds the initial position of the driving roller shaft 120 through the position sensor and controls the power driving device 140 to return the driving roller shaft 120 to the initial position. In some specific embodiments, in order to save costs, the position sensor can be a Hall sensor.

[0093] In other specific embodiments, the diameter of the drive roller 120 is greater than the diameter of the driven roller 130 to facilitate the spooling or release of the webbing 300.
