Harness system with a buckle restraining function
Abstract
A harness system with a buckle restraining function includes an upper buckle, an upper strap and a restraining assembly. The upper strap slidably passes through the upper buckle, and the upper strap includes a shoulder portion and a waist portion divided by the upper buckle. The restraining assembly utilizes an anti-sliding structure having a higher coefficient of friction to engage with the upper strap and further utilizes a stopping component to abut against the upper buckle. Therefore, the present invention can effectively restrain a sliding movement of the upper buckle relative to the upper strap and toward the shoulder portion by engagement of the anti-sliding structure and the upper strap and abutment of the stopping component and the upper buckle, which prevents an excessive decrease of a length of the shoulder portion of the upper strap and prevents a potential risk of injury of the passenger's upper body.
