The most common vehicle belt is
composed of a web strap (a), a latch
plate (b), a buckle (c) and a retractor (d).
A retractor is a spring loaded device that
rolls the seatbelt automatically when not
in use. Common retractors are:
Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
allows the occupant to have free
movement while buckled up, but in an
emergency situation or crash the retractor
instantly locks securing the occupant.
Switchable Locking Retractor (ELR —>
ALR) Switches from Emergency Locking
Retractor (ELR) to an Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR). This allows the user to
lock the retractor at a set position (also
called child restraint mode) used for
securing child seats.
