Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a supporting device for safety lines, the safety line comprising such a device, a method of manufacturing such a device and a method for carrying out a static test on a safety line.
  • Safety lines are known, of the type shown in document W02008/081375 for example, that are designed to be mounted on fixed structures typically placed to some height from the ground, such as building roofs, walls or beams, and act as the safety system for operators working to such heights from the ground.
  • These safety lines in case of loss of balance by the operator and downwards slip, prevent the operator's impact against underlying structures or the ground, or at all events reduce the impact's violence.
  • Safety lines which comprise stiff supporting devices or stakes fastened at mutually spaced positions, typically to a roof of a building structure, such as a house, a cottage, a shed or the like.
  • a connecting cable preferably of steel, is fastened between the supporting devices to which cable the operator can be hooked devices for protection against falls from a higher place (such as slings, safety cables, hooking ropes, retaining ropes, winding elements, snap-hooks or similar safety equipment), so that the operator can move along the cable between the supporting stakes.
  • a higher place such as slings, safety cables, hooking ropes, retaining ropes, winding elements, snap-hooks or similar safety equipment
  • a shock-absorbing member is interposed in series between the connection cable and at least one supporting device, which member is designed to absorb the aforesaid stress by means of an element submitted to elastic or inelastic deformation.
  • These devices consist for example of a stake that is such positioned that its longitudinal extension is orthogonal to the building structure and is able to deform when submitted to the force resulting from the operator's fall, typically by bending towards the pulling direction of the connection cable.
  • deformable supports for safety lines are characterised by a complicated structure and/or high bulkiness and/or weight, and/or by complexity in manufacture and/or installation, and by high manufacturing costs.
  • the aim underlying the present invention in its different aspects and/or embodiments, is to make available a supporting device for safety lines, a safety line comprising such a device and a method of carrying out a static test, which are capable of obviating one or more of the aforesaid drawbacks.
  • Another aim of the present invention is to make available a support for safety lines that is sufficiently strong for supporting a safety line under any operating condition, i.e. that is able to remain fastened to the building structure following an impulsive stress resulting from the fall of an operator hooked to the safety line, bear the stretch typical of the connection cable, resist the fatigue cycles due to thermal expansion of the safety line and keep the mechanical features unchanged over time.
  • a further aim of the invention is to provide a method for carrying out a static test on a safety line that does not give rise to permanent deformation in the supporting devices and is of simple and easy accomplishment.
  • a supporting device for safety lines comprising such a device, a method of manufacturing such a device and a method of carrying out a static test on a safety line, having the technical features contained in one or more of the accompanying claims, each of which is taken alone (without the relevant depending parts) or in any combination with the other claims, as well as according to the following aspects and/or embodiments, differently combined, also with the aforesaid claims.
  • the invention relates to a supporting device for safety lines, comprising:
  • the Applicant thinks that the combination of the above technical features, in particular the presence of the series of folding lines at which the anchoring body deforms due to a tensile force applied to the free end, to such an extent that the free end modifies its position relative to the constrained end, this allows a supporting device for safety lines to be obtained that is able to effectively dampen the jerk in case of fall of an operator and absorb the stress resulting from such a fall (preventing this stress from being discharged on the elements for fastening to the building structure or the covering element); said device being at the same time characterised by a simple and functional structure of easy and cheap manufacture.
  • the Applicant also thinks that the technical feature according to which the plan area of the main body is greater than the plan area of the anchoring body advantageously allows a supporting device to be obtained that is capable of ensuring wide and distributed fastening to the building structure, strong enough to withstand the stresses typical of a safety line.
  • the device is made up of a plate-like main body and a plate-like anchoring body, the height of same can be limited relative to the building structure to which it is fixed, by limiting the lever arm of the tensile force on the device.
  • the plate-like conformation of the main body ensures steady, safe and easy fastening onto building structures already provided with a covering element (a roof, for example).
  • the device made up of plate-like bodies can be obtained in a simple and cheap manner, by carrying out cuts in a plate-like piece for example, for shaping the main body and anchoring body obtained from such a piece.
  • said deformation of the anchoring body remains elastic at least up to a value of said tensile force less than or equal to 2 kN, preferably less than or equal to 2.5 kN.

  • said device effectively absorbs the impulsive stresses due to the operator's fall.

  • the anchoring body folded down along the folding lines in a series of sub-portions constitutes an element having a predetermined plastic compliance and capable of limiting or eliminating the impulsive character of a stress from a fall.
  • the Applicant has ascertained, through a functional test, that the energy generated in the fall is used for plastically deforming the anchoring body, reducing the maximum load that the device has to bear and therefore enabling said device to be under-sized relative to known devices and the material used to be reduced, typically limiting the thickness of the main and anchoring bodies, the members for fastening the main body to the building structure being under-sized too.
  • said anchoring body is structured for deforming, by effect of said tensile force greater than 2 kN, by stress relieving or plastic extension of the sub-portions that will tend to bring the anchoring body to a flat configuration, such plastic extension producing elongation of the anchoring body and causing the free end to move apart from the constrained end in the direction of application of the tensile stress.
  • said free end is designed to be constrained to a connection cable of a safety line.
