Anclaje absorbedor de energía para caídas en altura.Energy absorber anchor for falls in height.

Objeto de la invenciónObject of the invention

La presente invención se refiere a un anclaje destinado a ser fijado a un firme para trabajos en altura y utilizables como medio de fijación a dicho firme de una "línea de vida" o "punto de anclaje" que, en operaciones de mantenimiento, de reparación o de inspección y, en general, de cualquier tipo de trabajo en altura, proteja a los operarios ante una eventual caída.The present invention relates to an anchor intended to be fixed to a firm for work at height and usable as a means of fixing said firm of a "line of life "or" anchor point "which, in operations of maintenance, repair or inspection and, in general, of any type of work at height, protect operators from A possible fall.

El objeto de la invención es conseguir un anclaje que absorba mayoritariamente los esfuerzos generados en la caída, transmitiéndolos minoritariamente al firme, y ello con una estructuración extraordinariamente simple y consecuentemente muy económica.The object of the invention is to achieve a anchor that mostly absorbs the efforts generated in the fall, transmitting them minority to the firm, and this with a extraordinarily simple structuring and consequently very economical

Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention

La normativa legal en el ámbito de la seguridad, exige que cuando un operario está trabajando en altura, como por ejemplo sobre la cubierta de un edificio, debe estar relacionado con dicha cubierta mediante una "línea de vida" o "punto de anclaje", es decir mediante una cuerda, cable, etc, que por uno de sus extremos se fije al arnés del operario, y que por el otro lo haga con un punto determinado del firme, a través del correspondiente anclaje a éste último. De esta manera y ante un accidente de este tipo, el operario queda colgado a través de la citada "línea de vida" o "punto de anclaje", sin sufrir daño físico apreciable.The legal regulations in the field of security, requires that when an operator is working at height, as per example about the roof of a building, should be related to said cover by means of a "lifeline" or "point of anchor ", that is to say by a rope, cable, etc., that by one from its ends it is fixed to the harness of the operator, and that on the other make with a certain point of the firm, through the corresponding anchor to the latter. In this way and before a accident of this type, the operator is hung through the cited "lifeline" or "anchor point", without suffering appreciable physical damage.

Evidentemente el tirón brusco que sufre el cuerpo del operario en su caída trae consigo una brusca tracción sobre el firme, a través del anclaje fijado a la misma.Obviously the sudden pull suffered by the Operator's body in its fall brings abrupt traction on the firm, through the anchor attached to it.

Los anclajes comunes en este ámbito consisten en un poste de mayor o menor altura, rematado por su extremidad inferior en una base de fijación al firme, y provisto en su extremidad superior de medios para anclaje del cable, cuerda, etc., que relaciona el anclaje con el arnés del operario.Common anchors in this area consist of a pole of greater or lesser height, topped by its tip lower on a firm fixing base, and provided in its upper end of means for anchoring cable, rope, etc., which relates the anchor to the operator's harness.

Estos anclajes, si bien son estructuralmente simples, presentan una problemática que se centra fundamentalmente en los siguientes aspectos:These anchors, while structurally simple, present a problem that focuses primarily in the following aspects:

--
El anclaje no absorbe en absoluto la energía generada por la caída, de manera que ésta se transmite íntegramente a la cubierta.He anchor does not absorb the energy generated by the fall, of so that it is transmitted entirely to the deck.

--
Su instalación es costosa, en particular en el caso de cubiertas de chapa fina, con un espesor comprendido entre 0,5 y 0,8 mm.its installation is expensive, particularly in the case of decks thin sheet, with a thickness between 0.5 and 0.8 mm.

--
Genera problemas de impermeabilización, que obligan a operaciones adicionales.Generate waterproofing problems, which force operations additional.

Tratando de obviar estos problemas, son conocidos también anclajes absorbedores, en los que el anclaje propiamente dicho y la argolla de fijación del cable o cuerda, se relacionan mediante un resorte que absorbe parte de la energía generada en la caída, pero estos anclajes resultan extraordinariamente complicados y de fabricación costosa, manteniendo una transmisión de esfuerzo aún notable y manteniendo también problemas de impermeabilización que obligan igualmente a operaciones adicionales.Trying to obviate these problems, they are also known absorber anchors, in which the anchor proper and the cable or rope fixing ring is they relate by means of a spring that absorbs part of the energy generated in the fall, but these anchors result extraordinarily complicated and expensive manufacturing, maintaining a transmission of effort still remarkable and maintaining also waterproofing problems that also oblige additional operations
