Description

Harnais d'antichute et de maintien en suspension à confort amélioré.  Fall arrest and suspension harness with improved comfort.
Domaine technique de l'invention Technical field of the invention
L'invention concerne un harnais d'encordement comprenant une ceinture, une paire de tours de cuisse, et des bretelles avant et arrière comportant au moins un point d'accroché dorsal de sécurité antichute, lesdites bretelles arrière pouvant coulisser librement dans la ceinture, en étant fixées par leurs extrémités inférieures aux tours de cuisse. The invention relates to a roping harness comprising a belt, a pair of leg loops, and front and rear shoulder straps having at least one dorsal fall protection fall arrest point, said rear shoulder straps being freely slidable in the belt, being fixed by their lower extremities to the turns of thigh.
Un tel harnais est utilisé pour des fonctions d'antichute et de maintien au travail en suspension par le point d'accroché dorsal.  Such a harness is used for fall arrest and work positioning functions in suspension by the dorsal hook point.
État de la technique State of the art
Dans les harnais connus du genre mentionné, un appareil de blocage situé à l'amont, provoque la retenue quasi instantanée de l'utilisateur à la suite d'une chute. Il en résulte une réaction ascendante sur le point d'attache dorsal qui tend à faire remonter la ceinture sous les côtes de l'utilisateur. Cet inconvénient provient d'une part de la liaison serrée entre les bretelles arrière et la ceinture, et d'autre part de la liaison lâche entre la ceinture et les tours de cuisse. In the known harnesses of the type mentioned, a locking device located upstream, causes almost instantaneous retention of the user following a fall. This results in an upward reaction on the dorsal attachment point which tends to raise the belt under the ribs of the user. This disadvantage comes on the one hand from the tight connection between the rear straps and the belt, and on the other hand the loose connection between the belt and the thighs.
Pour y remédier, on a déjà proposé de fixer les extrémités inférieures des bretelles arrière directement aux tours de cuisse, et d'équiper la ceinture avec des moyens de guidage permettant un mouvement de coulissement relatif des bretelles arrière par rapport à la ceinture. Ce système de sangles coulissantes évite la remontée de la ceinture sur un choc, mais n'évite pas sa retombée lorsque celle-ci est sollicitée par un poids, notamment des outils ou autres charges accrochés au porte-matériel de la ceinture. Par ailleurs, le serrage excessif des bretelles liées à la ceinture, entraîne la remontée de celle-ci. Il en résulte un certain inconfort en suspension par le point d'attache dorsal, et une remontée intempestive de la ceinture lors du serrage des bretelles. Objet de l'invention To remedy this, it has already been proposed to fix the lower ends of the rear straps directly to the thighs, and to equip the belt with guide means allowing relative sliding movement of the rear straps relative to the belt. This system of straps sliding avoids the rise of the belt on a shock, but does not avoid its fall when it is solicited by a weight, including tools or other charges attached to the gear belt. Moreover, the excessive tightening of the straps attached to the belt, causes the rise thereof. This results in a certain discomfort suspended by the dorsal attachment point, and an inadvertent rise of the belt when tightening the shoulder straps. Object of the invention
L'objet de l'invention consiste d'une part à améliorer le confort des harnais d'antichute et de maintien au travail en suspension par le point d'accroché dorsal, et d'autre part à empêcher la remontée intempestive de la ceinture lors du serrage des bretelles. The object of the invention is firstly to improve the comfort of the fall arrest harnesses and suspension work by hanging point dorsal attachment point, and secondly to prevent inadvertent rise of the belt during tightening the straps.
En plus de la liaison des bretelles arrière coulissantes aux tours de cuisse, l'invention est caractérisée en ce que la partie dorsale de la ceinture est reliée aux bretelles avant par des moyens de liaison en étant désolidarisée du point d'attache dorsal. In addition to the connection of the sliding rear straps to the leg loops, the invention is characterized in that the dorsal portion of the belt is connected to the front straps by connecting means being separated from the dorsal attachment point.
Il en résulte la double fonction suivante : This results in the following dual function:
- maintien de la ceinture en empêcher sa retombée quand elle doit supporter un certain poids de matériels;  - maintaining the belt to prevent its fall when it has to support a certain weight of equipment;
- transfert de la charge aux sangles des tours de cuisse lors d'une chute sur le point d'accroché dorsal, ce qui évite toute remontée de la ceinture dans les côtes de l'utilisateur. - Transfer of the load to the straps of the thighs during a fall on the point of hung dorsal, which prevents any rise of the belt in the ribs of the user.
Ces deux fonctions sont indépendantes l'une de l'autre, en permettant un confort optimum pour l'utilisateur. These two functions are independent of each other, allowing optimum comfort for the user.
Les moyens de liaison sont conformés pour assurer une reprise de la charge de la ceinture sur les bretelles avant. Ils sont réalisés soit par une seconde paire de bretelles arrière interconnectées entre la ceinture et les bretelles avant, soit par au moins une pièce de tissu cousue à la partie dorsale de la ceinture, et reliant les bretelles avant. La pièce de tissu peut être avantageusement doublée pour former une paire de fourreaux de guidage traversés par les bretelles arrière coulissantes. The connecting means are shaped to ensure a recovery of the load of the belt on the front straps. They are made either by a second pair of interconnected rear shoulder straps between the waistband and the front straps, either by at least one piece of fabric sewn to the dorsal portion of the waistband, and connecting the front straps. The piece of fabric may be advantageously doubled to form a pair of guide sleeves traversed by the sliding rear straps.
Le point d'attache dorsal peut être fixe en étant en liaison directe avec les tours de cuisse via les bretelles arrière. Le point d'attache dorsal peut aussi être relié aux tours de cuisse par l'intermédiaire d'une sangle de réglage insérée entre deux branches des bretelles arrière, de manière à être réglable en hauteur en fonction de la morphologie de l'utilisateur. Préférentiellement, le point d'accroché dorsal se trouve dans la partie arrondie d'une boucle métallique, ayant de plus une première traverse pour le pliage de la sangle en V des bretelles arrière, et une deuxième traverse parallèle pour le pliage de la sangle en V des bretelles avant. The dorsal attachment point can be fixed by being in direct connection with the leg loops via the rear shoulder straps. The dorsal attachment point can also be connected to the thighs by means of an adjustment strap inserted between two branches of the rear straps, so as to be adjustable in height depending on the morphology of the user. Preferably, the dorsal hooking point is in the rounded portion of a metal buckle, further having a first cross member for folding the V strap of the rear shoulder straps, and a second parallel cross member for folding the strap into V front straps.

Description détaillée de l'invention Detailed description of the invention
Sur les figures 1 à 5, un harnais 10 d'encordement est composé d'une ceinture 11 destiné à entourer la taille de l'utilisateur, d'une paire de tours de cuisse 12, 13, d'un jeu de bretelles avant 14 et arrière 15, et d'un point d'attache dorsal 16 de sécurité antichute. La partie antérieure (non représentée) du harnais 10, comporte un point d'attache ventral en liaison avec la ceinture 11 , et éventuellement un point d'attache sternal relié aux bretelles avant 14. Un tel harnais est bien connu des spécialistes, et est décrit dans le document FR2900579. Il permet d'assurer à la fois une fonction d'antichute, et une fonction de maintien au travail.  In FIGS. 1 to 5, a roping harness 10 is composed of a belt 11 intended to surround the height of the user, a pair of thighs 12, 13, a set of straps before 14 and rear 15, and a dorsal attachment point 16 fall protection. The anterior part (not shown) of the harness 10 comprises a ventral attachment point in connection with the belt 11, and possibly a sternal attachment point connected to the front shoulder straps 14. Such a harness is well known to specialists, and is described in FR2900579. It provides both a fall arrest function, and a function of maintenance at work.
Le point d'attache dorsal 16 se trouve au niveau de la zone de liaison des bretelles avant et arrière 14, 15, située à la partie supérieure du dos de l'utilisateur. Les deux bretelles arrière 15 sont formées par une sangle pliée selon un V renversé à partir du point d'attache dorsal 16, et les extrémités inférieures desdites bretelles sont solidarisées directement par des coutures 22 aux deux tours de cuisse 12, 13, mais pas à la ceinture 1. En cas de chute, l'utilisateur est stoppé automatiquement par le blocage de l'appareil antichute amont (non représenté), en provoquant une réaction ascendante sur le point d'attache dorsal 16. Cette réaction est reportée sur les deux tours de cuisse 12, 13, en empêchant toute remontée de la ceinture 11. La partie dorsale de la ceinture 11 est reliée aux bretelles avant 14 par des moyens de liaison ML destinés à éviter tout mouvement de descente de la ceinture 11 lorsqu'elle est chargée par un certain poids. Sur la figure 5, le porte-matériel 17 de la ceinture 1 porte à titre d'exemple un récipient 18 rempli d'eau, ou toute autre charge (matériel de sécurité ou de chantier). La présence des moyens de liaison ML de la ceinture 1 aux bretelles avant 14 permet de retenir la ceinture 11 dans sa position normale, en empêchant la retombée intempestive sous l'effet du poids. The dorsal attachment point 16 is at the level of the connecting zone of the front and rear shoulder straps 14, 15, located at the upper part of the back of the user. The two rear straps 15 are formed by a strap folded in an inverted V from the dorsal attachment point 16, and the lower ends of said straps are secured directly by seams 22 to the two leg loops 12, 13, but not to In the event of a fall, the user is automatically stopped by blocking the upstream fall arrest device (not shown), causing an upward reaction on the dorsal attachment point 16. This reaction is reported on both. thighs 12, 13, preventing any rise of the belt 11. The dorsal portion of the belt 11 is connected to the front shoulder straps 14 by ML connecting means intended to prevent downward movement of the belt 11 when loaded with a certain weight. In Figure 5, the material carrier 17 of the belt 1 carries for example a container 18 filled with water, or any other load (safety equipment or construction). The presence of the connecting means ML of the belt 1 to the shoulder straps 14 allows to retain the belt 11 in its normal position, preventing untimely fall under the effect of weight.
Les moyens de liaison ML peuvent être agencés sous différentes formes : - soit une paire de sangles additionnelles interconnectées entre la partie dorsale de la ceinture 11 et les extrémités supérieures des bretelles avant 14 ; The connecting means ML may be arranged in different forms: either a pair of additional straps interconnected between the dorsal portion of the belt 11 and the upper ends of the front straps 14;
- soit une pièce de tissu 19 en forme de X cousue à la partie dorsale de la ceinture 11 , et reliant les bretelles avant 14. - An X-shaped piece of fabric 19 sewn to the dorsal portion of the belt 11, and connecting the front straps 14.
La pièce de tissu 19 peut être avantageusement doublée pour former une paire de fourreaux de guidage (figures 1 et 3) en V renversé, traversés par les bretelles arrière 15 coulissantes. The fabric piece 19 may be advantageously doubled to form a pair of inverted V guide sleeves (FIGS. 1 and 3), traversed by the sliding rear straps.
Sur la figure 4, la ceinture 11 peut être munie sur les côtés d'une paire de passants 20 traversés par les deux bretelles 15 arrière coulissantes. Selon une variante de réalisation, la sangle en V des deux bretelles arrière 15 peut aussi passer entre le rembourrage de la ceinture 11 et la sangle de sécurité de celle-ci. In Figure 4, the belt 11 may be provided on the sides with a pair of loops 20 traversed by the two rear sliding straps. According to an alternative embodiment, the V strap of the two rear straps 15 can also pass between the padding of the belt 11 and the safety strap thereof.
Le point d'accroché dorsal 16 se trouve dans la partie arrondie 20a d'une boucle 21 métallique, ayant de plus une première traverse 20b pour le pliage de la sangle en V des bretelles arrière 15, et une deuxième traverse 20c pour le pliage de la sangle en V des bretelles avant 14. Le fonctionnement du harnais selon les figures 1-5 ressort clairement de la description précédente. The dorsal hook point 16 is in the rounded portion 20a of a metal loop 21, having in addition a first cross member 20b for folding the V strap of the rear shoulder straps 15, and a second cross member 20c for the folding of the V strap of the front straps 14. The operation of the harness according to Figures 1-5 is clear from the foregoing description.
Sur les figures 3 et 4, on remarque le transfert de la charge aux tours de cuisse 12, 13 lors d'une chute sur le point d'accroché dorsal 16. La ceinture 11 ne remonte pas grâce au libre coulissement des bretelles arrière 15.  FIGS. 3 and 4 show the transfer of the load to the leg loops 12, 13 during a fall on the dorsal hook point 16. The belt 11 does not rise thanks to the free sliding of the rear shoulder straps 15.
Sur la figure 5, la ceinture 11 reste également en place sans retomber vers le bas lorsqu'elle est chargée par le récipient 18 rempli d'eau. Le confort pour l'utilisateur est ainsi optimum dans les deux situations précitées. En référence à la variante du harnais 100 des figures 6 et 7, le point d'attache dorsal 16, au lieu d'être fixe comme dans la version des figures 1- 5, peut être ajusté en hauteur en fonction de la morphologie de l'utilisateur. La structure du harnais 00 est modifiée de la manière suivante :  In Figure 5, the belt 11 also remains in place without falling down when loaded by the container 18 filled with water. Comfort for the user is thus optimum in the two situations mentioned above. Referring to the variant of the harness 100 of Figures 6 and 7, the dorsal attachment point 16, instead of being fixed as in the version of Figures 1-5, can be adjusted in height depending on the morphology of the body. 'user. The structure of harness 00 is modified as follows:
- les deux branches de sangle 15a et 5b sont issus de la séparation des bretelles arrière de liaison entre le point d'attache dorsal 16 et les tours de cuisses 12, 13.  - The two strap branches 15a and 5b are derived from the separation of the connecting rear straps between the dorsal attachment point 16 and the thighs 12, 13.
- 19a et 19b sont deux éléments de liaison issus de la séparation de la pièce de tissu 19, pour permettre ce réglage.  19a and 19b are two connecting elements resulting from the separation of the piece of fabric 19, to allow this adjustment.
- 23 est un anneau métallique assurant le coulissement des sangles 15a et 24.  - 23 is a metal ring ensuring the sliding of the straps 15a and 24.
- 24 est une sangle additionnelle de réglage qui permet d'ajuster la liaison bretelle par rapport à la ceinture 11 via les deux éléments 19a et 19b.  - 24 is an additional adjustment strap that adjusts the shoulder strap connection to the belt 11 via the two elements 19a and 19b.
- 25 est une boucle de réglage métallique dans laquelle passent les deux sangles 15b et 24.  - 25 is a metal adjustment loop in which pass the two straps 15b and 24.
- 26 est une boucle métallique (par exemple) permettant le coulissement de la sangle de réglage 24. - 26 is a metal loop (for example) allowing the sliding of the adjustment strap 24.
On obtient ainsi un double réglage simultané, d'une part de la liaison point d'attache dorsal 16 par rapport aux tours de cuisses 12,13 et d'autre part de la liaison bretelles par rapport à la ceinture 11. This gives a double simultaneous adjustment, on the one hand of the dorsal attachment point connection 16 with respect to the leg loops 12, 13 and on the other hand of the shoulder connection with respect to the belt 11.
Ce double réglage permet l'ajustement de la hauteur du point anti-chute dorsal en fonction de la morphologie de l'utilisateur tout en conservant l'indépendance des liaisons point d'attache dorsal 16 antichute par rapport aux tours de cuisses 12, 13, et bretelles arrière 15 par rapport à la ceinture 11. This dual adjustment makes it possible to adjust the height of the backstage anti-fall point according to the morphology of the user while retaining the independence of the dorsal attachment points 16 anti-fall relative to the thighs 12, 13, and rear straps 15 relative to the belt 11.
