Abstract

La présente invention concerne un système (100) destiné à faire descendre de manière contrôlée d'une personne (101) en situation d'urgence le long d'un câble depuis une zone de travail (102) à distance du sol. Un premier système de câble de descente de la personne (101), est prévu qui est fixé à une zone de fixation dans la zone de travail (102), le premier système de câble de descente comportant un premier câble (112) auquel la personne (101) peut être accouplée. Un second système de câble de descente de la personne (101) est prévu, le second système de câble de descente comporte un second câble (122) destiné à faire descendre la personne (101). Un élément de suspension (124) peut être fixé à la zone de fixation dans la zone de travail (102), le second système de câble de descente étant accouplé à l'élément de suspension (124) de sorte qu'un accouplement de transmission de force peut être réalisé entre le second câble (122) et l'élément de suspension (124). Le premier système de câble de descente et le second système de câble de descente sont formés de telle sorte que le second système de câble de descente est accouplé au premier système de câble de descente dans une première zone de descente par câble (113) et le second système de câble de descente peut être descendu dans la première zone de descente par câble (113) depuis la zone de fixation le long d'une première longueur de descente par câble au moyen du premier câble (112) et le second système de câble de descente de la personne (101) peut découpler de façon destructive du premier système de câble de descente à partir d'une extrémité de la première zone de descente par câble et la personne (101) peut être descendue avec le second câble (122) dans une seconde zone de descente par câble (123) le long d'une seconde longueur de descente par câble. Le poids de la personne (101) peut être transféré dans la seconde zone de descente par câble (123) du second câble (122) à la zone de fixation par le biais de l'élément de suspension (124).
