  • Fall arresters are used to secure a person for work in which there is a risk of falling.
  • the fall arrester allows hands-free working with complete freedom of movement with absolute fall protection.
  • the secured person is caught automatically braking.
  • By a possibly integrated fall damper is a soft catching the secured person.
  • a fall arrester with centrifugal clutch is from the US 2005/0082115 A1 known.
  • a rope runs through the housing of the fall arrester and a wheel is pressed by a spring against the rope.
  • claw-like elevations are formed and in the wheel, a centrifugal clutch is arranged, the one Rotation of the wheel blocked from a predetermined rotational speed of the wheel.
  • this fall arrester acts only in one direction, ie the backup function is only in a direction of movement of the fall arrester relative to the rope, so that special care is required for handling so as not to accidentally hook the fall arrester around the rope, which would have the fatal consequence, that a fall would not be caught.
  • the fall arrester must be reversed when the secured person, for example, exceeds a dome and gravity thus acts relative to the fall arrester in the opposite direction. Should this be forgotten by the secured person, it can lead to life-threatening, because unsecured situations.
  • the invention is based on the object, a fall arrester og. To simplify the handling and use of the method and to expand the field of application.
  • the centrifugal clutch is designed and arranged such that it connects the first wheel when exceeding a predetermined speed of the first wheel with a second wheel force transmitting, wherein the second wheel is arranged and designed such that it is in force-transmitting Connects to the first wheel via the centrifugal clutch with the first wheel and rotates a bolt operated such that the latch from a release position to a locking position moves with the securing device cooperatively blocks a movement of the fall arrester relative to the securing device.
  • the bolt is for example designed such that it engages in the locking position in a recess in the securing device and produces a positive connection between the fall arrester and the securing device.
  • the bolt is non-rotatably connected to the second wheel, so that it is moved when triggering the centrifugal clutch directly from the co-rotating with the first wheel second wheel in the locking position.
  • the bolt on the housing is slidably disposed between the release position and the locking position and acted upon in the direction of the locking position by means of a spring element with force, a retaining device is provided which engages in the latch and holds the bolt against the spring force in the release position , And on the second wheel, a release device for the retainer is arranged such that it cooperates with the rotation of the second wheel with the first wheel with the retainer and releases the engagement of the retainer in the bolt.
  • the retainer In order to move the latch manually and independently of the rotation of the first wheel as needed from the release position to the locking position, the retainer has a protruding from the housing lever for manually releasing the retainer of the engagement in the bolt.
  • the centrifugal clutch is designed such that it produces the force-transmitting connection between the first and second wheel and above the predetermined rotational speed of the first wheel independently of the direction of rotation of the first wheel, a secured person along one and the same Safety device also descend again, for example when crossing domes, without the fall arrester must be implemented.
  • the second wheel and the first wheel are arranged together on the first axis as a common axis of rotation, wherein preferably the second wheel is disposed within an outer periphery of the first wheel.
  • the first axis is arranged on a pivoting lever and this pivot lever is arranged with a second axis spaced from the first axis on the housing and pivotable about this second axis. This allows the first wheel to pivot within the housing.
  • the bolt is designed such that it produces a frictional connection with the securing device in the locking position. This is preferred for example in a securing device in the form of a rope or a rail without recesses.
  • a leg spring is preferably arranged such that it presses the bolt eccentrically about the axis into the locking position.
  • a fall arrester comprises a housing 10, a first wheel 12, a second wheel 14, a latch 16 and a fixing lug 17 for attaching a not shown safety harness of a person to be secured (not shown) by means of a connecting element, not shown, for example carabiner.
  • the first wheel 12 is rotatably mounted on a lever arm 18 about a first axis 20.
  • the lever arm 18 is pivotally mounted on the housing 10 with a second axis 22 spaced from the first axis 20.
  • a first coil spring 24 presses at a point spaced from the first axis 20 and the second axis 22 on the lever arm 18, so that the first wheel 12 is pressed with its outer periphery against a securing device 26 in the form of a safety rail and upon movement of the housing 10 relatively to the securing device 26 rolls on this.
  • a securing device 26 in the form of a safety rail and upon movement of the housing 10 relatively to the securing device 26 rolls on this.
  • the second wheel 14 is also rotatable and radially disposed within the first wheel 12 on the first axle 20 such that the second wheel 14 is rotatable relative to and independent of the first wheel 12.
  • a centrifugal clutch is arranged with Schnappers 28 which pivot under the influence of a centripetal force against the force of a spring means 30 radially outwardly about respective Shupperachsen 31 and engage in a ring 32 which is formed on an inner periphery of the second wheel 14 , In this way, the centrifugal clutch makes a rotationally fixed connection between the first wheel 12 and the second wheel 14 when the rotational speed of the first wheel 12 exceeds a predetermined value.
  • the first wheel 12 takes the second wheel 14, so that when the centrifugal clutch is engaged, the second wheel 14 also rotates with the first wheel 12.
  • a force which brakes the housing 10 with respect to the securing rail 26 is therefore not transmitted by the first wheel 12.
  • This takes only the speed of the fall arrester relative to the safety rail 26 and rotates depending on the rotational speed of the second wheel 14 with.
  • the catch 28 are arranged in opposite directions, so that the centrifugal clutch engages independently of the direction of rotation of the first wheel 12 at the rim 32.
  • the latch 16 is disposed on the housing 10 to move back and forth between a release position and a lock position.
  • the latch 16 engages in a recess (not shown) of the securing device 26 and thereby establishes a positive connection between the housing 10 of the fall arrester and the securing device 26.
  • a movement of the fall arrester is blocked relative to the securing device 26.
  • This condition occurs when a crashed person has been caught by the fall arrester.
  • the release position the latch 16 is retracted and there is no positive connection between the housing 10 of the fall arrester and the securing device 26.
  • a leaf spring 34 is supported on the one hand on the housing 10 and on the other hand on the latch 16, so that the leaf spring 34, the latch 16 in Directed to the locking position with force.
  • a retainer 36 holds the latch 16 against the force of the leaf spring 34 in the release position.
  • a second coil spring 38 pushes the retainer 36 into a position where the retainer 36 engages a latch 40 in the latch 16 and holds it in the release position.
  • the retaining device 36 is additionally actuated manually from the outside and independently of the rotational speed of the first wheel 12 and thereby releasable from engagement in the latch 16.
  • the user can manually establish a positive connection between fall arrester and securing device 26, for example, to lean against the holding force of the fall arrester to rest or perform work.
  • the user wishes to release the positive connection between the securing device 26 and the housing 10 again, he can move the latch 16 manually against the force of the leaf spring 34 from the locking position to the release position, so that the latch 16 no longer engages in a recess of the securing device 26 and the positive connection between the housing 10 and securing device 26 is released.
  • the hook 40 then slides with an inclined surface 46 on the latch 16, snaps back on the latch 16 and holds it in the release position.
  • the latching of the latch 16 takes place in a recess of the securing device 26 in response to a relative movement between the housing 10 and securing means 26, the speed of which is removed from the first wheel 12.
  • a detection of a crash of the person to be secured is due to a high rotational speed of the first wheel 12.
  • the exact speed is determined at which the catch 28 engage in the rim 32. This allows the fall arrester to be built easily be adapted to the user's needs and the user can rise as fast as necessary immediately above this speed, so that no unnecessarily large forces arise in the fall impact.
  • the construction of the fall arrester according to the invention is such that even with a discharge of the fall arrester after a collision the positive connection between the housing 10 and the securing device 26 remains, since the leaf spring 34 presses the latch 16 regardless of the state he centrifugal clutch in the locked position Once the retainer 36 is released once. Therefore, the positive connection remains, even if the centrifugal clutch opens again. This increases security.
  • the leaf spring 34 can be very strong, so that the latch 16 quickly in the locking position is moved and even at a low speed of the housing 10 engages relative to the securing device 26. This significantly reduces the fall impact for the user.
