Definitions

  • the document FR2600898 relates to a rope stopper, wherein the restraint system is formed by a pivoting trigger for cooperating in the closed position with the rope.
  • the latter can slide in the chute of the body in the direction of the rise, or on the contrary be blocked by the trigger in case of fall of the user.
  • the trigger is provided with a gripping lever that can be actuated to drive it to the open position allowing access to the chute, and allowing the introduction of the rope into the chute.
  • the lever is provided with a lever facilitating opening and closing maneuver.
  • certain manipulations of the rope may exert some pressure or friction the rope on the lever, which may cause the trigger to open involuntarily, to the detriment of safety.
  • the document EP 2191870 mentions a cam lock for anchoring on a fixed rope, said blocker comprising a buttonhole connecting arm articulated between the pivot of the cam and the chute body.
  • a double latch that is integral with the body is configured to maintain the two opposite ends of the pivot in aligned cells acting as bearings. The presence of the double lock and the connecting arm allows to quickly insert and release the pivot in the cells.
  • the object of the invention is to secure the operation of a fall arrest and rope lock device by preventing inadvertent opening of its restraint system.
  • the security device is characterized in that the control device comprises a pair of gripping cleats independent of one another, and able to be actuated simultaneously to stabilize and lock the retaining system in the opening position for access to the chute, the two gripping cleats being arranged side by side and articulated about a transverse axis integral with the pivoting retaining system.
  • a fixed plastic blade is advantageously interposed between the two gripping cleats to prevent the support on one of the cleats does drive the other cleat.
  • each gripping cleat is equipped with a boss intended to abut against a stop of the body when the two cleats are not actuated simultaneously by pivoting in the opening direction.
  • Such a double-cleat control device can be used in any rope safety device, whether it is of the roller fall arrest or cam lock type.
  • a fall arrest apparatus 10 is used for the safety of a person moving along a fixed insurance rope 11.
  • the fall arrest device 10 is connected to the harness, and follows the progress of the person without causing blockage during normal use of ascent or descent. The person is then free to move without any manual intervention of unlocking the fall arrest device 10.
  • the fall arrest apparatus 10 comprises a rigid body 12, preferably a metal body, having on one side a rectilinear chute 13 of U section for the passage of the rope 11, and on the other side, a stirrup 14 for the mounting of a retaining system 15 roller 16 blocker.
  • the retaining system 15 with a roller 16 blocker is capable of occupying either an active blocking position in the event of a fall, or an inactive unlocking position allowing the person to progress along the rope 11 in the upward direction or in the opposite direction during a controlled descent.
  • the roller 16 in the form of a cylindrical wheel is carried by a pivoting double-arm support device articulated about a first axis 18 of the body 12.
  • the peripheral surface of the roller 16 is provided with inclined pins, and a torsion spring (not shown) is threaded on the first axis 18 to urge the support arm assembly 17 and roller 16 towards the bottom of the chute 13.
  • the roller 16 is mounted for free rotation on a second axis 19 of the arms 17, and the inside of the roller 16 encloses a centrifugal coupling (not shown) intended to occupy a disengaged position or a position engaged as a function of the speed or acceleration of the roller 16 blocker.
  • a centrifugal coupling (not shown) intended to occupy a disengaged position or a position engaged as a function of the speed or acceleration of the roller 16 blocker.
  • the centrifugal coupling In the normal use of ascent or descent, the centrifugal coupling is in the disengaged position, and the roller 16 follows the progression of the person without manual intervention to release the restraint system.
  • the blocking occurs automatically during the passage of the coupling towards the engaged position, causing a strong pressure of the roller against the rope 12 which stops the fall.
  • the principle and the operation of such a retaining system with centrifugal coupling are described as examples in the documents EP 1525903 and EP 1380320 .
  • the body further comprises a reverse U-shaped rocker 20 mounted to tilt around a third axis 21 outside the body 12.
  • the rocker 20 is intended to be connected to the user's shoulder belt, either directly by a connecting lanyard, either via a shock absorber.
  • the retaining system 15 is equipped for this purpose with a pair of cleats 22, 23 gripping, which are formed by levers substantially identical structures, and arranged side by side with the interposition of a fixed blade 24 of plastic.
  • the two cleats 22, 23 are independent of one another, and articulated around a transverse axis common to the two arms 17.
  • Each cleat 22, 23 is associated with a return spring intended to urge it into position. job ( Figures 1 to 3 ).
  • Each cleat 22, 23 is equipped with a boss 26 situated opposite the axis 25, and intended to abut against a stop 27 of the stirrup 14, when the two cleats are not open simultaneously towards the remote access position to the chute 13.
  • the blade 24 spacer thin, has the function of preventing the drive or gripping of one of the latches 22 in the opening direction, causes the other cleat 23 to the position away.
  • the operation of the double-cleat anti-fall device 22, 23 according to the Figures 1 to 4A is the next : On the figure 1 , the apparatus is in the idle state, and the roller 16 of the retaining system 15 is engaged in the chute 13, making access impossible for the establishment of the rope.
  • the two cleats 22, 23 are located inside the body 12.
  • the presence of the two tabs 22, 23 secures the operation of the device by preventing inadvertent opening and access to the rope.
  • the retention system 115 can be used for a blocking device 100.
  • a blocking device 100 Such an apparatus comprises a body 112 with chute 113, and a trigger 30 pivotally mounted about an axis 31 of a stirrup 114.
  • a handle 32 gripping is fixed to the body 112, and the surface coming into contact with the rope is provided with pins.
  • a return spring urges the trigger 30 towards the bottom of the chute 113.
  • the two tabs 122, 123 of the retaining system are articulated to the trigger 30, and are separated from each other by a blade 124 spacer plastic.
  • the opening of the trigger 30 is secured and requires the simultaneous actuation of the two tabs 122, 123 to rotate the trigger 30 to the open position and hooking of the catches on the caliper 114.
