According to another preferred embodiment of the fall arrest device according to the invention, the ridge is arranged at right angles to a connecting line connecting the center point of the first bore with the center point of the second bore.

The first bore is preferably dimensioned to robustly fasten the first leg to the corner pillar by means of at least one screw resting directly on a surface of a relevant corner pillar, and the second bore is preferably dimensioned to detachably securely anchor a conventional safety carabiner therein.

According to an important preferred embodiment of the climbing safety device according to the invention, it is provided that the lower surface of the ridge comes to lie above a corner edge of the relevant corner pillar when the first leg rests directly on a surface of a relevant corner pillar. This brings about an immobilization and, in particular, a rotational fixation of the entire leg element and thus also of the second leg.

The diameter of the first bore is preferably between 18 mm and 26 mm, and the diameter of the second bore is preferably between 30 mm and 50 mm.

Furthermore, the angle between the first leg and the second leg is preferably between 120 ° and 150 ° and in particular about 135 °.

According to a further preferred embodiment of the climbing safety device according to the invention, the ends of the respective legs remote from the ridge are provided with round arches corresponding to semicircles, the center of which is identical to the center of the bore of the leg in question.

The leg element preferably has a length in the range from 150 mm to 200 mm and a thickness in the range from 1 mm to 3 mm, the width of the first leg being smaller than the width of the second leg.

The leg element is made of a robust material, preferably of stainless steel.

The climbing safety device according to the invention is explained below with reference to a preferred embodiment which is shown in the figures of the drawing. It shows:

• 1 a preferred embodiment of the climbing safety device according to the invention in a view obliquely from above;
• 2 in the 1 illustrated preferred embodiment of the climbing safety device according to the invention in a view from above;
• 3 in the 1 illustrated preferred embodiment of the climbing safety device according to the invention in a view from below;
• 4th a corner pillar of a power pole including riser bolts for fastening the in the 1 until 3 illustrated climbing safety device according to the invention in a side view;
• 5 the in 4th shown climbing bolt without climbing safety device according to the invention in a side view.

The ones in the 1 until 3 illustrated climbing safety device according to the invention 100 is as a leg element 101 designed and intended for cooperation with a securing carabiner firmly attached to a loose end of a safety line, another end of the safety line being firmly connected to a safety belt to be worn on the body of a pole climber.

For this purpose, the leg element contains 101 two legs arranged at a predetermined angle to one another 110 , 120 , with a first leg 110 with a first hole 111 for attaching the leg element 101 on a riser bolt 210 of a corner pillar 201 a power pole 200 is provided, and a second leg 120 with a second hole 121 is provided for temporarily inserting a safety carabiner.

The first leg 110 and the second leg 120 are over a straight ridge 130 separated from each other, the ridge 130 perpendicular to one of the center of the first hole 111 with the center of the second hole 121 connecting connecting line 131 is arranged.

The first hole 111 is sized to the first leg 110 by means of at least one screw directly on a surface of a relevant corner pillar 201 lying robustly on the corner pillar 201 to attach, and the second hole 121 is dimensioned to securely anchor a conventional safety carabiner in it in a detachable manner.

The lower surface of the ridge 130 comes when directly on a surface of a cornerstone in question 201 overlying first leg 110 directly above a corner edge 202 of the relevant cornerstone 201 to lie, whereby an immobilization and in particular a rotational fixation of the entire leg element 101 and thus also of the second leg 120 is effected.

The diameter of the first hole 111 is measured at 22 mm and the diameter of the second hole 121 measured to 40 mm, the width of the first leg 110 is smaller than the width of the second leg 120 .

The angle between the first leg 110 and the second leg 120 is measured at about 135 °.

The ridge 130 distal ends of the respective legs 110 , 120 are with round arches 112 , 122 provided that correspond to semicircles, the center of which corresponds to the center of the hole 111 , 121 of the leg in question 110 , 120 is identical.

The leg element 101 has a length of 170 mm and a thickness of 2 mm and is made of stainless steel.

In the 4th and 5 is a cornerstone 201 a power pole 200 including riser bolts 210 for fastening the in the 1 until 3 illustrated climbing safety device according to the invention 100 shown, where 5 a cornerstone 201 without climbing safety device 100 shows.

The exemplary embodiment of the invention explained above only serves the purpose of a better understanding of the teaching according to the invention given by the claims, which as such is not restricted by the exemplary embodiment.
