AI Technical Summary
In a frontal collision involving a pillarless vehicle, the shoulder anchor point rotates excessively toward the front of the vehicle, resulting in a decrease in the restraining force of the seat belt on the occupant.
In the seat belt system of a pillarless vehicle, the upper part of the shoulder anchor point is rotatably mounted on the roof longitudinal beam. The rotation is restricted by a rotation limiting component connected to the rear side of the roof longitudinal beam, thus ensuring the effective restraint of the seat belt.
It suppresses the decrease in the restraining force of seat belts on occupants during a frontal collision in pillarless vehicles, ensuring occupant safety while maintaining the appearance of the vehicle interior and ease of getting in and out.
