Safety belt including plate-type load limiter

1. A load limiter comprising:

a load limiter body to which a downward pulling force and an upward pulling force are applied together in opposite directions, wherein the load limiter absorbs energy by deformation in the load limiter body to limit the downward pulling force in a multi-stage manner and absorbs energy by the deformation to limit the upward pulling force in a multi-stage manner;

wherein the load limiter body includes:

a webbing body coupled with a webbing rod under the downward pulling force;

a shoulder strap body coupled with a shoulder strap rod under the upward pulling force; and

a connecting body integrating the webbing body with the shoulder strap body;

wherein at least one of the webbing body and the shoulder strap body is provided with a rod support portion, and each of the coupling of the webbing body to the webbing rod and the coupling of the shoulder strap body to the shoulder strap rod is made by the rod support portion;

wherein the rod support portion includes:

a rod holder to provide a first load limit; and

a load braker to provide a second load limit,

wherein the first load limit and the second load limit cause the forces to be limited in the multi-stage manner;

wherein the rod holder is connected to the load braker by a load limit protrusion, and the load limit protrusion is formed between the load braker and the rod holder and has an end-to-end distance which is half of the rod holder; and

wherein the load limit protrusion has a divergence structure which is expanded from the rod holder to the load braker.

2. The load limiter of claim 1 , wherein the load braker has an end-to-end distance less than an end-to-end distance of the rod holder.

3. The load limiter of claim 1 , wherein the rod holder is in a circular shape, and the load braker is in a rectilinear shape.

4. The load limiter of claim 1 ,

wherein the rod support portion is one of a plurality of similar rod support portions and each of the webbing body and the shoulder strap body is provided with a respective one of the rod support portions,

wherein each of the webbing body and the shoulder strap body is provided with a rod seating portion, and

wherein each rod seating portion is connected to an end portion of the rod support portion.

5. The load limiter of claim 4 , wherein each rod seating portion has a rod groove recessed therein.

6. The load limiter of claim 5 ,

wherein the rod groove of the webbing body has an end-to-end distance greater than a rod diameter of the webbing rod, and

wherein the rod groove of the shoulder strap body has an end-to-end distance greater than a rod diameter of the shoulder strap rod.

7. The load limiter of claim 1 , wherein the connecting body has a triangular shape and connects the webbing body to the shoulder strap body.

8. The load limiter of claim 1 , wherein the load limiter body has a press worked plate shape.

9. The load limiter of claim 1 , wherein the load limiter body includes an upper plate and a lower plate, and the upper and lower plates have a same shape and are integrated by overlapping with each other.

10. The load limiter of claim 9 , wherein the upper and lower plates are fixed and integrated by a fixing member in a state in which the upper and lower plates overlap with each other.

11. A safety belt comprising:

a webbing;

a shoulder strap including a first shoulder strap and a second shoulder strap; and

a load limiter engaged to the webbing and the shoulder strap and configured to absorb energy by deformation to limit a downward pulling force applied by a webbing rod connected to the webbing in a multi-stage manner, to absorb energy by deformation to limit an upward pulling force applied by a first shoulder strap rod connected to the first shoulder strap in a multi-stage manner, and to absorb energy by deformation to limit an upward pulling force applied by a second shoulder strap rod connected to the second shoulder strap in a multi-stage manner, wherein the load limiter includes:

a load limiter body to limit the forces in the multi-stage manner,

wherein the load limiter body includes:

a webbing body having a webbing space in which the webbing rod coupled with the webbing is disposed;

a first shoulder strap body having a first shoulder strap space in which the first shoulder strap rod coupled with the first shoulder strap is disposed; and

a second shoulder strap body having a second shoulder strap space in which the second shoulder strap rod coupled with the second shoulder strap is disposed; and

wherein a first rod support portion and a second rod support portion are formed in each of the webbing space and at least one of the first and second shoulder strap spaces, respectively, the first and second rod support portions comprising respective slots configured for being deformed by respective ones of the rods.

12. The safety belt of claim 11 ,

wherein each of the first and second rod support portions includes:

a rod holder configured to perform a first load limit; and

a load braker configured to perform a second load limit,

wherein the rod holder is connected to the load braker by a load limit protrusion, and

wherein the load limit protrusion is formed between the load braker and the rod holder and is in a shape of a tapered channel.

13. The safety belt of claim 11 , wherein the first and second shoulder strap bodies are inclined in opposite directions relative to the webbing body and relative to a plane that bisects the load limiter body.

14. The safety belt of claim 13 , wherein the webbing body is integrated with a connecting body connecting the first shoulder strap body to the second shoulder strap body, and the connecting body expands a predetermined area of the webbing body to reinforce durability of an integration of the webbing body and first and second shoulder strap bodies.
