LOAD INDICATORS FOR INDIVIDUAL RETENTION SYSTEMS AND CORRESPONDING SYSTEMS AND METHODS Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC A44B11/00 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to assemblies of tightening couplings of safety belt and appropriate systems and methods. In compliance with this version, tightening coupling assembly comprises tongue having opening, which receives belt to attach tightening coupling assembly to vehicle structure or seat. Tab also comprises elongated hole and one or more deformable projections along hole edge. Tab is functionally connected to the coupling clutch assembly frame by means of a connecting element that passes through the hole. After application of sufficient load to the tongue, the connecting element deforms the protrusion (ledges), allowing the tab to move relative to the frame. Movement of the tongue relative to the frame can provide movement of the colored area of indication of load to the position, which is visible through the window in the housing of the tightening coupling assembly.

EFFECT: disclosed are load indicators for individual retention systems and corresponding systems and methods.
