PLAQUETTE D'ASSURAGE POUR PAROI D' ESCALADE, NATURELLE OU
ARTIFICIELLE.BELT PLATE FOR CLIMBING WALL, NATURAL OR
ARTIFICIAL.
Une plaquette d'assurage sert à fixer une corde, principalement par l'intermédiaire d'un mousqueton, d'un maillon rapide ou de tout autre système. Grâce à cette corde un grimpeur peut progresser en toute sécurité sur une paroi rocheuse naturelle ou artificielle et est retenu contre toute chute dans le cas où il viendrait à glisser sur un point d'appui. A belay plate is used to secure a rope, mainly by means of a carabiner, a quick link or any other system. Thanks to this rope a climber can progress safely on a natural or artificial rock wall and is retained against any fall in the event that it comes to slip on a fulcrum.
La plaquette d'assurage actuellement utilisée est réalisée à partir d'une pièce plate rectangulaire, découpée par usinage ou estampage d'une tôle, puis coudée à angle droit selon une ligne de pliage médiane. L'une des ailes de la plaquette est appliquée à plat sur la paroi à escalader et y est fixée au moyen de vis, et l'autre aile se place perpendiculairement à la paroi et est percée d'un trou pour la fixation de la corde par l'intermédiaire du mousqueton, du maillon rapide ou analogue. The belay plate currently used is made from a flat rectangular piece, cut by machining or stamping a sheet, then bent at right angles along a center fold line. One of the wings of the plate is applied flat on the wall to climb and is fixed there by means of screws, and the other wing is placed perpendicular to the wall and is pierced with a hole for fixing the rope by means of the carabiner, the quick link or the like.
Une telle plaquette d'assurage présente cependant plusieurs inconvénients
- en raison de son procédé de fabrication par estampage d'une tôle, elle présente des bords vifs, notamment tout autour du trou, ce qui peut donner lieu à des accidents. Si par exemple, malgré les consignes, un grimpeur engage un doigt dans ledit trou, en cas de perte d'équilibre, il risque de subir de sérieux traumatismes, voire le sectionnement d'une phalange par les bords vifs du trou
- la corde risque également d'être endommagée par frottement sur les bords vifs du trou
- l'ouverture réduite du trou n'autorise pas le passage simultané d'un mousqueton, d'un maillon rapide ou analogue, et de deux brins de corde formés par une boucle, qui sont les moyens courants utilisés pour permettre l'assurage du grimpeur en toute sécurité et en continu en bout de voie, dans la technique de l'escalade en tête
- l'aile qui est percée du trou est très saillante par rapport à la paroi rocheuse, et constitue de ce fait un obstacle dangereux si un grimpeur ayant perdu l'équilibre venait à buter dessus.However, such a belaying plate has several disadvantages
- Because of its manufacturing process by stamping a sheet, it has sharp edges, especially around the hole, which can give rise to accidents. If for example, despite the instructions, a climber engages a finger in said hole, in case of loss of balance, he risks suffering serious trauma, even the cutting of a phalanx by the sharp edges of the hole
- the rope may also be damaged by friction on the sharp edges of the hole
- the reduced opening of the hole does not allow the simultaneous passage of a carabiner, a quick link or the like, and two strands of rope formed by a loop, which are the common means used to allow belaying of the safe and continuous climber at the end of the route, in the technique of head climbing
- the wing which is pierced with the hole is very protruding with respect to the rock wall, and therefore constitutes a dangerous obstacle if a climber who has lost his balance comes up against it.
La présente invention vise à remédier à tous ces inconvénients et elle concerne à cet effet une plaquette d'assurage qui se caractérise en ce qu'elle est constituée par une pièce annulaire monobloc, comprenant une portion d'accrochage semi-annulaire qui se raccorde par ses extrémités à une face d'un socle plat en définissant avec ce dernier un trou de passage oblong, la portion d'accrochage et le trou oblong présentant sur toute leur périphérie, y compris dans leurs zones de raccordement avec le socle, des formes arrondies dépourvues d'angle vifs. The present invention aims to remedy all these drawbacks and to this end it relates to a belay plate which is characterized in that it is constituted by an annular one-piece piece, comprising a semi-annular hooking portion which is connected by its ends to one face of a flat base by defining with the latter an oblong passage hole, the hooking portion and the oblong hole having on their entire periphery, including in their areas of connection with the base, rounded shapes without sharp corners.
On élimine ainsi les risques d'accident signalés précédemment. This eliminates the risk of accidents previously reported.
Un mode de réalisation de l'invention sera décrit à présent à titre d'exemple non limitatif en regard du dessin annexé dans lequel
les figures 1 à 3 sont respectivement des vues en perspective, en élévation et en plan de la plaquette d'assurage.An embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of nonlimiting example with reference to the appended drawing in which
Figures 1 to 3 are respectively perspective views, in elevation and in plan of the belay plate.
Avec référence aux figures, la plaquette d'assurage 10 selon l'invention est constituée par une pièce moulée monobloc, en métal ou en matière thermoplastique. Elle présente une forme générale annulaire et comprend une portion d'accrochage semi-annulaire 12 de section circulaire, ovale ou arrondie quelconque, dont les extrémités se raccordent sur une face 14 d'un socle plat 16. Les zones de raccordement 18 de la portion d'accrochage au socle se fondent avec des formes douces et arrondies à la face 14, comme le montrent clairement les figures 1 et 2. De même, l'ouverture 20 définie entre le socle et la portion d'accrochage présente sur toute sa périphérie intérieure des formes arrondies, non agressives pour tout corps venant s'accrocher en un point quelconque de la périphérie. With reference to the figures, the belay plate 10 according to the invention consists of a one-piece molded part, of metal or of thermoplastic material. It has a generally annular shape and comprises a semi-annular attachment portion 12 of any circular, oval or rounded section, the ends of which are connected to one face 14 of a flat base 16. The connection zones 18 of the portion for attachment to the base merge with soft, rounded shapes on the face 14, as clearly shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. Likewise, the opening 20 defined between the base and the attachment portion present over its entire periphery interior of rounded shapes, not aggressive for any body coming to cling to any point of the periphery.
La plaquette d'assurage présente un fond plat 22 par lequel elle est appliquée sur une paroi rocheuse 24, naturelle ou artificielle et elle est fixée sur cette paroi au moyen d'au moins une vis traversant un trou fraisé 26 percé dans le socle 16. La vis comporte une tête plate qui évite tout débord à angle vif sur la face 14. The belay plate has a flat bottom 22 by which it is applied to a rock wall 24, natural or artificial, and it is fixed to this wall by means of at least one screw passing through a countersunk hole 26 drilled in the base 16. The screw has a flat head which avoids any sharp angle overhang on the face 14.
Comme le montre la figure 2, la plaquette d'assurage présente un bord supérieur 28 arrondi et fuyant vers le bas. Ainsi,ce bord ne constitue pas un obstacle dangereux pour un grimpeur en perte d'équilibre. As shown in Figure 2, the belay plate has a rounded upper edge 28 and leaking down. Thus, this edge does not constitute a dangerous obstacle for a climber in loss of balance.
De préférence, le trou de passage 20 a une forme allongée dans le sens vertical afin de permettre le passage soit à deux brins d'une corde pliée seule, soit à une corde pliée et à un mousqueton, à un maillon rapide ou analogue. Preferably, the passage hole 20 has an elongated shape in the vertical direction in order to allow passage either to two strands of a folded rope alone, or to a folded rope and a carabiner, to a quick link or the like.
