Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine des harnais d'encordement, également appelés baudriers d'encordement, qui sont notamment destinés à la pratique de l'escalade, de l'alpinisme et de la spéléologie.The present invention relates to the field of roping harnesses, also called roping harnesses, which are particularly intended for the practice of climbing, mountaineering and caving.

Elle concerne plus particulièrement, mais pas exclusivement, les harnais d'encordement.It relates more particularly, but not exclusively, to the rope harnesses.

Un tel harnais est notamment divulgué dans FR 2 859 913 (mode de réalisation de la figure 3).Such a harness is disclosed in particular FR 2,859,913 (embodiment of the figure 3 ).

Ce harnais comporte une ceinture présentant une première bande ventrale, ainsi qu'un premier et un deuxième tours de cuisse reliés entre eux par l'intermédiaire d'une sangle continue fixée à la ceinture.This harness comprises a belt having a first ventral band, and a first and second leg loops connected to each other by means of a continuous strap attached to the belt.

De manière connue, la ceinture prend appui contre le corps du grimpeur, tandis que les tours de cuisse entourent les cuisses du grimpeur.In known manner, the belt is supported against the body of the climber, while the thighs surround the thighs of the climber.

Comme on le constate en se référant à la figure 3 de cet art antérieur, ce harnais est de conception simple puisque le pontet d'accrochage 14 qui permet de relier un équipement au harnais, par exemple une corde ou tout autre équipement d'escalade, est constitué par une portion de la sangle reliant les tours de cuisse 11A, 11B.As can be seen by referring to the figure 3 of this prior art, this harness is of simple design since the trigger guard 14 which makes it possible to connect an equipment to the harness, for example a rope or any other climbing equipment, is constituted by a portion of the strap connecting the towers. of thigh 11A, 11B.

Un tel harnais d'entrée de gamme présente toutefois plusieurs inconvénients. Tout d'abord, ce harnais pose un problème au niveau de l'assurage : la sangle formant pontet 14 a tendance à se plier et de se retrouver dans un plan horizontal. Par suite, lorsque l'on équipe ce harnais avec mousqueton muni d'un appareil d'assurage type 8, ce dernier se retrouve désaxé de 90° ce qui rend son utilisation particulièrement inconfortable. La personne équipée de ce harnais qui est chargée d'assurer le grimpeur risque donc de se fatiguer rapidement. Plus généralement, les équipements fixés à la sangle formant pontet 14 sont le plus souvent mal positionnés par rapport aux bras du grimpeur, ce qui est de nature à rendre inconfortable l'utilisation de l'équipement.Such an entry-level harness, however, has several disadvantages. First of all, this harness poses a problem in terms of belaying: the strap forming bridge 14 tends to bend and end up in a horizontal plane. Therefore, when we equip this harness with carabiner provided with a type 8 belay device, the latter is found offset 90 ° which makes its use particularly uncomfortable. The person equipped with this harness who is responsible for ensuring the climber may therefore get tired quickly. More generally, the equipment attached to the strap 14 forming bridge are most often poorly positioned relative to the arms of the climber, which is of a nature to make the use of the equipment uncomfortable.

Objet et résumé de l'inventionObject and summary of the invention

Un but de l'invention est de proposer un harnais d'encordement de réalisation simple qui permet de positionner correctement les équipements fixés au pontet.An object of the invention is to provide a simple embodiment of a roping harness that correctly positions the equipment attached to the trigger guard.

L'invention atteint son but par le fait que le harnais comporte en outre un anneau d'accrochage, distinct de la sangle, qui est fixé directement à la ceinture et qui entoure au moins la sangle et la première bande ventrale.The invention achieves its purpose by the fact that the harness further comprises a snap ring, separate from the strap, which is attached directly to the belt and which surrounds at least the strap and the first ventral band.

Ainsi, selon l'invention, le pontet d'accrochage est constitué par l'anneau d'accrochage rapporté et non pas par la portion de la sangle reliant les tours de cuisse. Cet anneau d'accrochage s'étend dans un plan sensiblement vertical, grâce à quoi l'équipement est bien positionné. Par exemple, grâce à l'invention, l'appareil d'assurage de type 8 se positionne correctement dans un plan sagittal par rapport à l'utilisateur ce qui améliore le confort d'utilisation lors d'une opération d'assurage.Thus, according to the invention, the attachment strap is constituted by the hooking ring reported and not by the portion of the strap connecting the leg loops. This snap ring extends in a substantially vertical plane, whereby the equipment is well positioned. For example, thanks to the invention, the type of anchor device 8 is positioned correctly in a sagittal plane relative to the user which improves the comfort of use during a belay operation.

Selon l'invention, l'anneau d'accrochage est fixé solidairement à la ceinture, ce qui signifie que l'anneau d'accrochage est solidaire de la ceinture. De préférence, l'anneau d'accrochage est cousu à la ceinture. Encore de préférence, l'anneau d'accrochage présente une portion inférieure fixée à la ceinture, grâce à quoi l'ouverture définie par l'anneau d'accrochage s'étend au-dessus de la ceinture, ce qui facilite encore la fixation d'un équipement à l'anneau d'accrochage.According to the invention, the attachment ring is fixed integrally to the belt, which means that the attachment ring is secured to the belt. Preferably, the attachment ring is sewn to the belt. Still preferably, the attachment ring has a lower portion attached to the belt, whereby the opening defined by the attachment ring extends above the belt, which further facilitates the attachment of equipment to the snap ring.

Avantageusement, l'anneau d'accrochage est fixé solidairement à la ceinture.Advantageously, the attachment ring is fixed integrally to the belt.

En outre, les tours de cuisse sont de préférence reliés entre eux uniquement par la sangle continue.In addition, the leg loops are preferably connected to each other only by the continuous strap.

Un autre intérêt de l'invention est qu'en cas de rupture de la ceinture, l'anneau d'accrochage formant pontet est toujours solidaire de la sangle maintenant les tours de cuisse.Another advantage of the invention is that in case of rupture of the belt, the fastening ring forming a trigger guard is always secured to the strap holding the leg loops.

Avantageusement, ladite sangle entoure au moins la première bande ventrale, ce qui permet de reporter la charge des cuisses sur la ceinture, et ce sans aucune discontinuité de la sangle. Autrement dit, la sangle passe au-dessus de la première bande ventrale, tout en traversant l'anneau d'accrochage.Advantageously, said strap surrounds at least the first ventral band, which allows to postpone the load of thighs on the belt, and without any discontinuity of the strap. In other words, the strap passes over the first ventral band, while crossing the snap ring.

De préférence, la sangle épouse le bord de la première bande ventrale à l'endroit où la sangle passe au-dessus de la première bande ventrale. Un intérêt est d'améliorer le report de la charge des cuisses sur la ceinture.Preferably, the strap conforms to the edge of the first ventral band at the point where the strap passes over the first ventral band. An interest is to improve the postponement of the load of thighs on the belt.

Un autre intérêt est que la charge appliquée sur l'anneau d'accrochage se répartit aussi bien sur la ceinture que sur les cuisses.Another advantage is that the load applied to the snap ring is distributed both on the belt and on the thighs.

Avantageusement, l'anneau d'accrochage s'étend autour d'un axe qui est sensiblement parallèle à la première bande ventrale, de sorte que l'anneau d'accrochage s'étend dans un plan sensiblement vertical.Advantageously, the snap ring extends around an axis which is substantially parallel to the first ventral band, so that the snap ring extends in a substantially vertical plane.

De préférence le diamètre de l'anneau d'accrochage est au moins une fois et demie plus grand que la largeur de la première bande ventrale. Un intérêt est de pouvoir fixer simplement et rapidement un mousqueton à l'anneau d'accrochage.Preferably the diameter of the snap ring is at least one and a half times greater than the width of the first ventral band. An interest is to be able to fix simply and quickly a carabiner to the ring of attachment.

De manière particulièrement avantageuse, la ceinture comporte en outre une seconde bande ventrale fixée à la première bande ventrale, et l'anneau d'accrochage est fixé entre la première bande ventrale et la deuxième bande ventrale. La ceinture comporte une bande qui est repliée sur elle-même à l'une des extrémités de la ceinture. De préférence, la partie repliée constitue la deuxième bande ventrale.Particularly advantageously, the belt further comprises a second ventral band fixed to the first ventral band, and the attachment ring is fixed between the first ventral band and the second ventral band. The belt has a band that is folded on itself at one end of the belt. Preferably, the folded portion constitutes the second ventral band.

Ainsi, grâce à l'invention, l'anneau d'accrochage est pris en sandwich entre les première et deuxième bandes ventrales de la ceinture grâce à quoi on améliore la tenue de l'anneau d'accrochage et la robustesse du harnais. De préférence, la seconde bande ventrale est une portion d'extrémité de la ceinture et s'étend depuis l'extrémité de la première bande ventrale. De préférence, la première et la deuxième bandes ventrales sont fixées ensemble selon leurs longueurs par le biais d'au moins une couture. Selon une autre variante, les première et deuxième bandes ventrales pourraient toutefois être constituées de deux bandes distinctes.Thus, thanks to the invention, the snap ring is sandwiched between the first and second ventral bands of the belt whereby it improves the holding of the snap ring and the strength of the harness. Preferably, the second ventral band is an end portion of the belt and extends from the end of the first ventral band. Preferably, the first and second ventral bands are secured together according to their lengths through at least one seam. According to another variant, the first and second ventral bands could however consist of two separate bands.

Avantageusement, la sangle présente un brin qui est fixé entre la première bande ventrale et la deuxième bande ventrale, de manière à renforcer la fixation de la sangle à la ceinture.Advantageously, the strap has a strand which is fixed between the first ventral band and the second ventral band, so as to strengthen the attachment of the strap to the belt.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le brin, la première bande ventrale et la deuxième bande ventrale sont fixés ensemble par le biais d'au moins une première couture.According to a preferred embodiment, the strand, the first ventral band and the second ventral band are fastened together through at least one first seam.

Avantageusement, la sangle présente un autre brin, et la première bande ventrale est également fixée entre cet autre brin et la deuxième bande ventrale. Cet agencement permet d'améliorer encore la solidité de la fixation entre la ceinture, l'anneau d'accrochage et la sangle.Advantageously, the strap has another strand, and the first ventral band is also fixed between this other strand and the second ventral band. This arrangement makes it possible to further improve the strength of the fastening between the belt, the fastening ring and the strap.

De préférence, l'autre brin, la première bande ventrale et la deuxième bande ventrale sont reliées ensemble par le biais d'une deuxième couture.Preferably, the other strand, the first ventral band and the second ventral band are connected together through a second seam.

Description détaillée de l'inventionDetailed description of the invention

La figure 1 représente un harnais d'encordement 10 conforme à la présente invention. Il comporte une ceinture ajustable 12 constitué en l'espèce d'une bande 14 destinée à entourer le ventre de l'utilisateur. La ceinture 12 comporte une portion dorsale épaisse qui est traversée par la bande 14. Cette portion dorsale 16 est destinée à prendre appui contre le bas du dos de l'utilisateur.The figure 1 represents a roping harness 10 according to the present invention. It has an adjustable belt 12 consisting of the species of a band 14 intended to surround the user's belly. The belt 12 has a thick dorsal portion which is traversed by the band 14. This dorsal portion 16 is intended to bear against the lower back of the user.

La ceinture 12 comporte également une boucle de réglage 18 à laquelle est fixée la bande 14, cette boucle de réglage permettant de régler le tour de taille. Comme on le voit plus particulièrement sur la figure 2 , la ceinture 12 présente une première extrémité 12a fixée à la boucle et une seconde extrémité 12b pouvant coulisser par rapport à la boucle afin de permettre le réglage du tour de taille.The belt 12 also comprises an adjustment loop 18 to which is attached the band 14, this adjustment loop for adjusting the waist. As we see more particularly on the figure 2 , The belt 12 has a first end 12a fixed to the loop and a second end 12b can slide relative to the loop to allow the waist adjustment.

Si l'on se réfère encore à la figure 2 , on note que la première extrémité 12a de la ceinture est constituée par un pli de la bande 14 enserrant une partie de retenue 19 de la boucle 18. La bande 14 passe dans la boucle 18 tout en étant repliée sur elle-même de sorte que la bande 14 de la ceinture présente une première bande ventrale 20 et une seconde bande ventrale 22 fixées l'une à l'autre, face contre face, depuis la première extrémité 12a de la ceinture. Les première et seconde bandes ventrales 20, 22 sont destinées à être disposées du côté du ventre de l'utilisateur, la seconde bande ventrale étant celle qui est la plus proche du corps de l'utilisateur.If we still refer to the figure 2 , it is noted that the first end 12a of the belt is constituted by a fold of the band 14 enclosing a retaining portion 19 of the loop 18. The band 14 passes in the loop 18 while being folded on itself so that the band 14 of the belt has a first ventral band 20 and a second ventral band 22 fixed to each other, face to face, from the first end 12a of the belt. The first and second ventral bands 20, 22 are intended to be disposed on the side of the user's stomach, the second ventral band being the one that is closest to the body of the user.

En se référant à nouveau à la figure 1 , on remarque que le harnais 10 comporte en outre un premier et un deuxième tours de cuisse 24, 26 reliés l'un à l'autre par l'intermédiaire d'une sangle continue 28 solidaire de la ceinture 12. Plus précisément, les premier et deuxième tours de cuisse 24,26 sont reliés entre eux uniquement par le biais de cette sangle continue 28. Referring again to the figure 1 , it is noted that the harness 10 further comprises first and second turns of thigh 24, 26 connected to each other by means of a continuous strap 28 secured to the belt 12. More specifically, the first and second leg loops 24,26 are interconnected only through this continuous strap 28.

Les tours de cuisse 24,26 sont également reliés à la portion dorsale 16 par le biais de sangles auxiliaires 30,32. Les extrémités 28a, 28b de la sangle continue 28 sont pourvues de boucles de réglage 34, 36 permettant de régler la distance entre la ceinture et les tours de cuisse 24, 26. The leg loops 24, 26 are also connected to the dorsal portion 16 by means of auxiliary straps 30, 32. The ends 28a, 28b of the continuous belt 28 are provided with adjustment buckles 34, 36 for adjusting the distance between the belt and the leg loops 24, 26.

Conformément à l'invention, le harnais 10 comporte en outre un anneau d'accrochage 40, distinct de la sangle continue 28, qui est fixé directement à la ceinture 12 et qui entoure la sangle 28 et la première bande ventrale 20. Autrement dit, selon l'invention, l'anneau d'accrochage n'est pas constitué par une portion de la sangle continue 28. Plus précisément, l'anneau d'accrochage 40 s'étend autour d'un axe A qui est sensiblement parallèle à la première bande ventrale 20. L'anneau d'accrochage est par ailleurs fixé solidairement à la ceinture.According to the invention, the harness 10 further comprises a fastening ring 40, distinct from the continuous strap 28, which is fixed directly to the belt 12 and which surrounds the strap 28 and the first ventral band 20. In other words, according to the invention, the attachment ring is not constituted by a portion of the continuous strap 28. More specifically, the attachment ring 40 extends around an axis A which is substantially parallel to the first ventral band 20. The attachment ring is also fixed integrally to the belt.

Comme on le comprend à l'aide de la figure 1 , cet anneau d'accrochage 40 est destiné à retenir un équipement telle une corde 42, un mousqueton ou tout autre équipement utilisé par les grimpeurs. Pour ce faire, on choisira un anneau d'accrochage 40 sont le diamètre est sensiblement plus grand que la largeur de la première bande ventrale 20, par exemple au moins une fois et demie la largeur L de la première bande ventrale 20 de manière à laisser suffisamment de place pour pouvoir fixer aisément un équipement à l'anneau d'accrochage.As can be understood by using the figure 1 This fastening ring 40 is for retaining a device such a rope 42, a hook or any other equipment used by climbers. To do this, we will choose an attachment ring 40 are the diameter is substantially larger than the width of the first ventral band 20, for example at least one and a half times the width L of the first ventral band 20 so as to leave sufficient space to easily attach equipment to the snap ring.

Par ailleurs, on constate que la sangle continue 14 passe au-dessus de la ceinture de manière à entourer la première bande ventrale 20. Comme on le voit sur la figure 2 , la sangle 14 épouse le bord de la première bande ventrale 20 à l'endroit où la sangle 14 passe au-dessus de la première bande ventrale 20. Comme mentionné plus haut, cette configuration permet de reporter sur la ceinture 12 les efforts appliqués aux tours de cuisse 24,26. Furthermore, it can be seen that the continuous strap 14 passes over the belt so as to surround the first ventral band 20. As can be seen in FIG. figure 2 , The strap 14 conforms to the edge of the first lap belt 20 at the point where the strap 14 passes over the first lap belt 20. As mentioned above, this configuration allows the belt 12 carried over the forces applied to thighs 24,26.

En se référant maintenant à la figure 3 , on constate que l'anneau d'accrochage 40 est fixé entre la première bande ventrale 20 et la deuxième bande ventrale 22. Plus précisément, l'anneau d'accrochage présente une portion inférieure 40a qui est prise en sandwich entre la première bande ventrale 20 et la deuxième bande ventrale 22. Referring now to the figure 3 , It is noted that the hooking ring 40 is fixed between the first lap belt 20 and the second lap belt 22. More specifically, the fastening ring has a lower portion 40 which is sandwiched between the first strip ventral 20 and the second ventral band 22.

Si l'on s'intéresse maintenant plus spécifiquement à la sangle continue 28, on voit sur la figure 1 que cette dernière présente un brin 44 qui s'étend entre la ceinture 12 et le deuxième tour de cuisse 26, et qui est fixé entre la première bande ventrale 20 et la deuxième bande ventrale 22. Le brin 44 est pris en sandwich entre la première bande ventrale 20 et la deuxième bande ventrale 22. Cette configuration permet d'améliorer encore la fixation de la sangle 28 à la ceinture 12. If we now focus more specifically on the continuous strap 28, we see on the figure 1 that the latter has a strand 44 which extends between the belt 12 and the second leg circumference 26, and which is fixed between the first ventral band 20 and the second ventral band 22. The strand 44 is sandwiched between the first ventral band 20 and the second ventral band 22. This configuration makes it possible to further improve the fastening of the strap 28 to the belt 12.

La sangle continue 28 présente en outre un autre brin 46, qui s'étend entre la ceinture 12 et le premier tour de cuisse 24, cet autre brin 46 étant agencé de telle sorte que la première bande ventrale 20 est fixée entre cet autre brin 46 et la deuxième bande ventrale 22. La première bande ventrale 20 est donc prise en sandwich entre la sangle 28 et la seconde bande ventrale 22. Cette configuration permet d'améliorer encore la fixation solidaire de la sangle 28 à la ceinture 12. The continuous strap 28 further has another strand 46, which extends between the belt 12 and the first leg circumference 24, this other strand 46 being arranged such that the first ventral band 20 is fixed between this other strand 46 and the second ventral band 22. The first ventral band 20 is thus sandwiched between the strap 28 and the second ventral band 22. This configuration makes it possible to further improve the fastening of the strap 28 to the belt 12.

Dans cet exemple, le brin 44, la première bande ventrale 20 et la deuxième bande ventrale 22 sont fixés ensemble par le biais d'une première couture 48. L'autre brin 46, la première bande ventrale 20 et la deuxième bande ventrale 22 étant fixés ensemble par le biais d'une deuxième couture.In this example, the strand 44, the first ventral band 20 and the second ventral band 22 are secured together through a first seam 48. The other strand 46, the first ventral band 20 and the second ventral band 22 being secured together through a second seam.

En se référant à la figure 3 , on constate que l'anneau d'accrochage 40 est fixé à la seconde bande ventrale 22 par le biais d'une troisième couture 52. Referring to the figure 3 it is found that the hooking ring 40 is fixed to the second ventral band 22 by means of a third seam 52.

Comme on le constate sur la figure 1 , la fixation entre l'anneau d'accrochage 40, la ceinture 12 et la sangle continue 28 permet de maintenir le pontet dans un plan sensiblement vertical. Ce positionnement avantageux de l'anneau d'accrochage 40 formant pontet permet ensuite de positionner correctement les équipements par rapport au harnais, ce qui permet d'améliorer le confort d'utilisation des équipements fixés au harnais.As we see on the figure 1 , fixing between the attachment ring 40, the belt 12 and the continuous strap 28 keeps the bridge in a substantially vertical plane. This advantageous positioning of the snap ring 40 forming a bridge then allows to correctly position the equipment relative to the harness, which improves the comfort of use of the equipment attached to the harness.
