Definitions

  • the present invention belongs to the sector of the permanent anti-falling devices, i.e. to whatever it is necessary to install on roofs and, in general, on buildings coverings for being used during covering operations to prevent the risk of operator fall.
  • the means used to connect to one end are usually connected to the harness worn by the operator whereas, at the other end, they are connected to the permanent safety systems the coverings are equipped with.
  • These permanent safety systems comprise anchor terminals, and the latter can be used to secure the connection means thereto, or they can be used to support further permanent elements, including, for instance, ropes.
  • the safety harness could either be secured to the anchor terminal or be slidingly associated with a rope extending between several terminals; this second configuration aims at rendering operator displacements easier, besides offering them a greater radius of action.
  • the anchor terminals comprise appropriate connection means to make connections easier and the latter are often, but not exclusively, shaped like a closed-ring eyebolt.
  • the anchor terminals comprise appropriate fixing means to the covering; said means to fix vary as a function of the type of covering on which the terminal shall be located, for instance the fixing means might be screws or chemical dowels or through bolts, should the intrados of the covering be accessible.
  • coverings are often sloped, as necessary to drain meteoric water or snow.
  • coverings are often made up of flat pitches joined together along a side, so as to form a so called ridge line or a so called valley.
  • variable-geometry anchor terminals have been specifically developed to be located along the ridge lines of coverings; an example thereof is described in EP 2228506 A1 , which shows an anchor terminal whose base is fixed in the middle section and comprises two side fins featuring a substantially rectangular shape, hinged to the central section along a side, so that the side fins are free of rotating along a side, up to leaning on the pitches.
  • WO 99/27213 also shows a variable-geometry anchor terminal basically designed for being mounted on ridge lines.
  • anchor terminals like that described in EP 2,228,506 A1 or WO 99/27213 are not suitable for being mounted on ridge lines of coverings made of prefabricated " ⁇ " (pi) beams, where the contact line between adjacent beams often runs below the extrados of the covering.
  • variable-geometry anchor terminals which have been basically developed for mounting on ridge lines of pitch coverings, might hinder a free flowing of meteoric waters if mounted in correspondence with the valley lines.
  • This further aspect relates to how are the loads transferred and how are they reduced by dissipating part of the energy developed by the operators when falling down, in order to reduce the stresses, in particular those onto the fixing means and the covering
  • the present invention has been developed to reduce the action directly transferred to the anchor terminal's fixing means, while simultaneously making it possible to install the anchor terminal in correspondence with valleys of two-pitch coverings, for instance along the line in the middle of prefabricated "Y” beams, or in the ridge position of two-pitch coverings, especially if these are made of prefabricated " ⁇ " (pi) beams.
  • the terminal described in this patent application can also be advantageously used in conjunction with flat coverings or vertical walls, by mainly taking advantage of its energy absorbing capabilities; on the other hand, its adjustable geometry makes it also suitable for being mounted in correspondence with diaphragms or others.
  • the anchor terminal described in the present patent application comprise elements, interposed in the stress transmission chain, which are simultaneously adjustable, to fit the different arrangements of the coverings, and, thanks to their deformation by plasticization, such as to reduce the loads transmitted by the operator connection means to the covering fixing means.
  • a further important effect of the plasticization of said elements is in that they introduce a time shift in load transmission.
  • the adjustable elements leaning on the covering (3, 4) are realized by drilling and bending a metal plate, in order to pre-form plastic hinges destined to get deformed if adequately loaded, thus absorbing part of the fall energy and shifting the loads in time.
  • the support (2) could also be made of materials that have been submitted to bendings, thus increasing the energy absorbing effect by the side elements (3, 4) or even fully replacing them.
  • connection means (1) usually, but not exclusively, consisting of one or several eyebolts, to be associated with the connection means via a safety harness, and fixed to a support (2), the latter being advantageously realized by a plate, often featuring a substantially rectangular shape, which at least two side elements (3, 4) are rotationally associated with and constitute the resting interface to the covering and also operate as fall energy dissipation elements in that, thanks to their plastic deformation, they reduce the actions transferred to the points where the components are fixed to the covering, besides shifting them in time.
  • Such energy absorption effect might also be achieved or however incremented by bending the support (2).
  • Each of said at least two side elements (3, 4) leaning on the covering is rotationally associated with said support (2) in correspondence with two opposite sides (21, 22) of the rectangle.
  • both the support (2) and the side elements (3, 4) are made of a cut and bent metal plate, hence said support (2) comprises a former pair of drilled fins (211, 212) at the ends of the former (21) of said opposite sides and a second pair of drilled fins (221, 222) at the ends of the second (22) of said opposite sides.
  • each of said resting side elements consists of a plate (3 or 4) featuring a longitudinal surface (31 or 41) in the middle leaning on the covering and comprising two right-angle bent fins (42, 43 or 32, 33), each of the latter presenting a hole used to rotationally associate them with the support via appropriate hinges (6).
  • the anchor terminal shall be laid down onto the covering, by first properly orienting the support (2) and subsequently making the longitudinal leaning surface (31 or 41) of each of the two side elements (3, 4) adhere to the covering, thus orienting said side elements (3, 4) according to the slope of the pitches and marking the positions of the holes (44) that shall receive the covering fixing means.
  • the fixing means are installed and laid down, thus securing the side elements (3, 4) to the covering; finally, if the hinges (6) of the anchor terminal consist of bolts, these shall be tightened.
