Designing seat belts for modern cars is largely a routine process. Supporting the design process by conventional CAD techniques despite many benefits does not shorten time-consuming design tasks as significantly as we would expect. Only the use of Generative Modeling method can considerably automate routine part of the design process of safety belts. The key to the development of Generative Model is to develop a basis for a seat belt retractor, which determines the whole structure of seat belt assembly. The paper describes in details the design of the Generative Model of the base of a seat belt retractor and the impact of its individual parts on the final form of the belt assembly. In addition, the base is equipped with a Poka-Yoke system, integrated into the Generative Model which ensures the elimination of assembly errors. To build the Generative Model, CATIA system and Knowledgeware tools were used. The paper also shows examples of CAD models of belts assemblies developed using elaborated Generative Models.
