Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a safety anchor for climbing, specifically provided for achieving an optimal binding of the anchor which is arranged on a crevice of the wall or rock which is being climbed.
  • an object of the invention is to provide an anchor of the type formed by two pairs of cams or eccentrics, which can swivel and which in a rest position are introduced in a crevice of a wall, so that by means of pulling a pull rod provided in the suspension rope such pairs of cams can be swiveled outwards and pressed against the walls of the crevice, such that according to the invention, in addition to the swiveling movement of the cams for their binding on the crevice, a transverse movement thereof occurs which increases the binding of the anchor on the crevice.
  • a type of safety anchor used in high mountain climbing which is formed by two pairs of eccentrics assembled such that they can swivel with respect to respective fixed shafts, and associated to a support to which the corresponding rope that the climber is tied to is linked, further having tighteners joined at the end by a pull rod and connected to the two cams, such that the pulling of the pull rod entails the swiveling of the cams towards a closing position for the purpose of introducing the anchor in a crevice of the face or wall which is being climbed, such that based on internal springs and when the pull rod is released, the pairs of cams tend to open and press against the walls of the crevice, thus forming the corresponding binding of the anchor to prevent the possible fall of the climber suspended from the rope linked to the anchor.
  • Said anchors usually work in a satisfactory manner, although occasionally and due to the existence of moisture, mud, moss, considerably polished crevice walls etc, they may be certain tendency for the anchor to slip on the rock, i.e. the initial friction considerably decreases, such that the sudden pulling of the anchor, for example the anchor which supports during a fall, can be insufficient to make the pairs of cams rotate and the friction against the rock increase so as to stop the fall.
  • the proposed anchor based on two pairs of rotating or swiveling cams, the support to which the rope that the climber is tied to is fixed, and the two shafts of the ropes of the cams, has the peculiarity that the mentioned support has two elongated and oblique holes in which the shafts of the cams are precisely positioned, such that when the mentioned support is pulled downwards, and precisely by virtue of the elongated configuration and inclination of the holes of the shafts, there is a transverse movement of the mentioned shafts of the cams parallel to the swiveling of such cams, two stresses being generated on the crevice, a conventional and classic stress due to the rotation of the cams and another stress corresponding to a transverse movement of such cams with respect to the crevice, which movement is considerably perpendicular to the walls of the mentioned crevice, therefore these two pressing stresses of the cams on the crevice prevent any type of slipping of the anchor, the effectiveness of the binding being thus considerably increased.
  • Springs have been provided in the elongated holes of the support in which the shafts work in, which springs make the shafts be separate at rest, for the purpose that they are always separate so as to act in the case of a pull, because when the latter occurs, said shafts tend to move closer together due to the orientation and configuration of the holes in which they are placed, tending to separate the cams in addition to the separation caused as is conventional, i.e. by means of springs tending to make the cams separate and press against the walls of the crevice in which it is applied.
  • the anchor of the invention comprises two pairs of cams (1 and 1') in the form of eccentrics and with an irregular outer surface for the purpose of achieving a correct binding thereof on the walls (3) of a crevice (4) corresponding to a rock or wall which is being climbed.
  • Said cams (1) and (1') are assembled on a support (5), with guide rods 6, Figure 1, to which the corresponding suspension rope of the climber, not shown, is fixed, further including a pair of tighteners (7) which at one end are joined to a pull rod (8) and at the other end are joined to the two cams (1 and 1') at attachment points (9) and (9'), such that to introduce the anchor in the crevice (4), the pull rod (8) is pulled, whereby the tighteners (7) pull the two pairs of cams (1 and 1') tending to close them as shown in Figures 2 and 3, for their introduction in the crevice (4).
  • This operation can also be carried out manually by the climber.
  • the two pairs of cams (1) and (1') are assembled such that they can swivel on respective shafts (10) located in elongated and oblique holes (11) provided for that purpose in the support (5), all this with the following peculiarities:
