  • the user 3 inserts a second foot 58 of a second leg 59 into a footrest 60.
  • the footrest 60 comprises a stirrup 32 identical to the stirrup 32 of the ascent device 31 .
  • the footrest 60 is integral with a second self-locking 61 disposed on the main cable 2 .
  • the ascending device 31 transmits the force exerted on the stirrup 32 , downwards, to the first self-locking device 55 through, according to the second embodiment illustrated in the Figures 7 and 8 , of the retaining element 45 and of the traction cable 52 , according to the variant of the second embodiment illustrated in the Figures 9 to 11 .
  • the retaining element 45 for the second embodiment, or the traction cable 52 , for the variant of the second embodiment, is thus able to withstand a traction force, respectively exerted between the first end 46 and the second end 48 or the first end 53 and the second end 54 , so as to block the first self-locking 55 and prevent the device 31 from sliding along the main cable 2 .
  • the user 3 then bends his second leg 59 , sliding the second self-locking 61 , upwards, along the main cable 2 and mounting his second foot 58 and the footrest 60 , integral with his second foot 58 , along of the main cable 2 , as illustrated on the figure 10 .
  • the user 3 then rests his weight and that of his equipment on his second foot 58.
  • the weight of user 3 and his equipment is then supported by the second self-locking 61 , by means of the footrest 60 , the second self-locking 61 preventing a sliding of the second leg 58 along the main cable 2 .
  • the user 3 then bends his first leg 57 , sliding the first self-locking device 55 , upwards, along the main cable 2 and mounting his first foot 56 and the ascent device 31 , integral with his first foot 56 , the along the main cable 2 , as shown in the figure 11 .
  • the ascending device 31 transmits the force exerted on the stirrup 32 , upwards, to the first self-locking device 55 , by means of the rod 47 of the retaining element 45 , integral with the first end 46 and the second end 48.
  • the rod 47 is thus able to resist a compressive force exerted between the first end 46 and the second end 48 , so as to slide the first self-locking 55 along the main cable 2 .
  • This rigidity combined with the back support means 7 and the retaining means 8 , gives the user 3 support in position, allowing him to avoid finding himself in a situation of suspension, conducive to the appearance of a harness syndrome.
  • a third self-locking device is disposed around the main cable 2 or around a belay cable, making it possible to prevent a fall of the user 3 if the first self-locking device 55 , the second self-locking device 61 or the two self-locking devices 55 , 61 would no longer ensure their function of blocking the main cable 2 .
  • the retaining element 45 thus allows a user to climb along a main cable 2 , disposed substantially vertically, the user 3 being in a substantially vertical position, the feet 56 , 58 directed downward.
  • the retaining element 45 allows a user 3 to mount the first self-locking device 55 along the main cable 2 , using only his first foot 56 inserted in the stirrup 32.
  • the retaining element 45 also allows a user 3 to climb along the main cable 2 at the sole force of his legs 57 , 59 without using his upper limbs.
  • the ascent system 1 finds applications in rope access workers, or building mountaineers, rope access technicians, and more generally people performing work at height, for industry, building, public works, events , for example during construction, repair, restoration, cleaning, control or expertise, clearing or cutting trees, installing systems safety or scaffolding, the installation of advertising tarpaulins, or even fumigation work, the installation of nets.
  • the ascent system 1 also finds applications in sporting activities, for example climbing, speleology, or in activities of shooting during sporting events, or of shooting in environments with difficult access, for example on a cliff. .
