Seat Belt Pretensioner Equipment
The configuration of seat belt pretensioner
equipment may vary with different vehicle models.
– The seat belt restrains the driver and
passengers to sit in a suitable position,
preventing the body over tilting forward
before the collision.
–
The seat belt pretensioners will be activated
by the electronic control unit in the event of a
severe collision, and then the pretensioner
will drive the seatbelt webbing tighten by
immediate pulling back.
–
In the event of collision, the driver's body will
move forward then the seat belt
pretensioners activate, to make the
restraining force to the body at a certain
range, preventing a further injury towards the
driver; at the same time, the seat belt
pretensioners activate in conjunction with the
airbag to provide an optimal protection.
