Abstract

In a webbing take-up device, a base cartridge receives pressure of gas generated by an MGG, load from a piston that is moved by the pressure of the gas, and reaction force acting on the MGG when gas has been ejected from the MGG. This enables strength retention with respect to the above-described pressure, load, and reaction force to be simplified.

Claims (20)

1. A webbing take-up device comprising:

a spool that rotates in a pull-out direction due to a webbing being pulled out;

a force limiter member that is capable of actuating with rotation of the spool in the pull-out direction, and that, in an actuated state, absorbs a part of a rotation force of the spool by being deformed;

a support member that supports the force limiter member;

a movable member that changes a deformation amount of the force limiter member by being moved;

a drive device that is disposed with respect to the movable member on a straight line along a movement direction of the movable member, and that moves the movable member by a drive force that is output toward a movable member side; and

a retaining member that retains the drive device, that retains the movable member so as to allow movement, and that transmits the drive force that is output from the drive device toward the movable member,

wherein a stopper portion is formed at the retaining member, the stopper portion being directly abutted by the movable member in a state in which movement of the movable member has been prevented such that the stopper portion prevents movement of the movable member at a movement end point of the movable member, and

wherein the stopper portion and the retaining member are a one-piece structure.

2. The webbing take-up device of claim 1 , wherein:

the movable member is formed in a columnar shape with an axial direction thereof along the movement direction; and

an end portion of the movable member, which is at a movement direction side of the movable member, abuts the retaining member in the state in which movement has been prevented.

3. The webbing take-up device of claim 2 , further comprising:

a deformation amount changing member that is provided so as to be able to deform the force limiter member, and that changes a deformation amount of the force limiter member by being displaced; and

a displacement prevention member that prevents displacement of the deformation amount changing member, and that releases prevention of displacement of the deformation amount changing member by being pressed and moved by the end portion of the movable member at the movement direction side.

4. The webbing take-up device of claim 3 , wherein the displacement prevention member is separated from the movable member in a state in which the movable member has reached the movement end point.

5. The webbing take-up device of claim 1 , wherein the retaining member includes:

a movable member retaining section inside which the movable member is retained and is movable;

an attachment section at which the drive device is provided, and the stopper portion, and

the retaining member, the movable member retaining section, the attachment section and the stopper portion are the one-piece structure.
