Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour connecter une longe de sécurité à une installation de slackline. L’utilisation d’un nœud étant impossible car la longe ne supporterai pas le frottement contre la sangle. L’usage d’un mousqueton traditionnel étant considérée comme dangereux et agressif pour la sangle.The present invention relates to a device for connecting a safety lanyard to a slackline installation. The use of a knot is impossible because the lanyard will not bear friction against the strap. The use of a traditional carabiner is considered dangerous and aggressive for the strap.
La connexion de cette longe est traditionnellement réalisée par un ou plusieurs anneaux métalliques non ouvrables, ce qui présente l’inconvénient de devoir enfiler ce dispositif autour de la sangle et du système d’assurage avant d’avoir connecté l’installation aux ancrages et de l’avoir mise en tension.The connection of this lanyard is traditionally carried out by one or more non-opening metal rings, which has the disadvantage of having to thread this device around the strap and the belay system before having connected the installation to the anchors and having tensioned it.
Certains fabricants proposent des anneaux de grand diamètre permettant de les enfiler autour du connecteur rigide reliant la sangle aux ancrages. Cela nécessite toutefois de déconnecter le connecteur rigide des ancrages, de disposer d’une extrémité libre de la sangle et du système d’assurage, et ne peut pas être effectué après mise en tension de la sangle.Some manufacturers offer large diameter rings allowing them to be threaded around the rigid connector connecting the strap to the anchors. However, this requires disconnecting the rigid connector from the anchors, having a free end of the strap and the belay system, and cannot be performed after tensioning the strap.
Le dispositif selon l’invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. Il comporte en effet selon une première caractéristique deux pièces distinctes pouvant s’agencer manuellement autour de la sangle et du système d’assurage de manière à former une boucle fermée. La périphérie de cette boucle comporte un ou plusieurs évidements permettant d’y faire circuler la longe. L’extrémité de ladite longe se noue en une ganse maintenue en périphérie du dispositif grâce aux évidements. Le dispositif selon l’invention permet ainsi d’éviter tout contact entre la longe et la slackline. La liaison mécanique entre les deux pièces constituant la boucle est prévue de manière à ce que le positionnement de la longe dans les évidements empêche l’ouverture de la boucle.The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks. According to a first characteristic, it in fact comprises two separate parts which can be arranged manually around the strap and the belay system so as to form a closed loop. The periphery of this loop has one or more recesses allowing the lanyard to circulate there. The end of said lanyard is knotted in a loop maintained at the periphery of the device thanks to the recesses. The device according to the invention thus makes it possible to avoid any contact between the lanyard and the slackline. The mechanical connection between the two parts constituting the loop is provided so that the positioning of the lanyard in the recesses prevents the opening of the loop.
Selon les modes particuliers de réalisation :According to the particular embodiments:
-La jonction mécanique entre les pièces composant la boucle peut être de type glissière ou pivot.-The mechanical junction between the parts making up the loop can be of the slide or pivot type.
-Les pièces composant la boucle peuvent être soit indépendantes et séparables, soit assemblées de manière inséparables et articulées entre elles.-The parts making up the loop can be either independent and separable, or assembled inseparable and hinged together.
-la géométrie de la boucle peut être autre que circulaire.-the geometry of the loop may be other than circular.
- Les évidements peuvent être de type tunnel, gorge ou une combinaison des deux. Les dessins annexés illustrent l’invention :- The recesses can be of the tunnel, groove or a combination of the two. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention:
-2La figure 1 schématise une installation traditionnelle de slackline avec un système d’assurage.-2 Figure 1 shows a traditional slackline installation with a belay system.
La figure 2 représente le dispositif de l’invention sur lequel est nouée une longe de sécurité.Figure 2 shows the device of the invention on which a safety lanyard is tied.
La figure 3 représentent une vue en éclaté du même dispositif et sa longe. La figure 4 représente en coupe ce même dispositif sans longe.Figure 3 shows an exploded view of the same device and its lanyard. Figure 4 shows in section this same device without lanyard.
Les figures 5, 6 et 7 représentent trois variantes différentes de ce dispositif.Figures 5, 6 and 7 show three different variants of this device.
En référence à ces dessins, une installation de slackline comporte une sangle (1) et un système d’assurage (2) autour desquels est enfilé un anneau de connexion (3) que le dispositif selon l’invention a pour but de remplacer. A cet anneau est reliée la longe de sécurité (4) du funambule. La sangle (1 ) est reliée aux ancrages (6) grâce à deux connecteurs rigides (5).With reference to these drawings, a slackline installation comprises a strap (1) and a belay system (2) around which is threaded a connection ring (3) which the device according to the invention aims to replace. To this ring is connected the safety lanyard (4) of the tightrope walker. The strap (1) is connected to the anchors (6) by two rigid connectors (5).
Le dispositif de l’invention comporte des évidements de type tunnel (7) ou gorge (8) permettant d’y accueillir une ganse nouée en extrémité de la longe (4). Le fait d’insérer une longe dans les évidements du dispositif verrouille la boucle en configuration fermée.The device of the invention comprises recesses of the tunnel (7) or groove (8) type allowing it to accommodate a loop tied at the end of the lanyard (4). Inserting a lanyard into the recesses of the device locks the loop in the closed configuration.
Dans la forme de réalisation selon les figures 2, 3 et 4, les deux pièces constituant la boucle sont indépendantes et assemblables par une liaison glissière assurée par deux queues d’arondes. Les évidements sont de type tunnels et gorge combinés.In the embodiment according to Figures 2, 3 and 4, the two parts constituting the loop are independent and can be assembled by a sliding link provided by two dovetails. The recesses are of the combined tunnel and groove type.
Dans la forme de réalisation selon la figure 5, les deux pièces constituant la boucle sont solidaires et articulées entre elles par une liaison pivot qui permet l’ouverture de la boucle.In the embodiment according to Figure 5, the two parts constituting the loop are integral and hinged together by a pivot connection which allows the opening of the loop.
Dans la forme de réalisation selon la figure 6, La périphérie de la boucle comporte uniquement des évidements de type tunnel.In the embodiment according to FIG. 6, the periphery of the loop only comprises tunnel type recesses.
Dans la forme de réalisation selon la figure 7, La périphérie de la boucle comporte un seul évidement discontinu de type gorge.In the embodiment according to Figure 7, the periphery of the loop has a single discontinuous recess of the groove type.
A titre d’exemple non limitatif, la boucle aura un diamètre intérieur de l’ordre de 70mm et les évidements seront conçus pour accepter le passage d’une longe d’un diamètre proche de 15mm.As a non-limiting example, the loop will have an internal diameter of around 70mm and the recesses will be designed to accept the passage of a lanyard with a diameter close to 15mm.
-3Le dispositif selon l’invention est susceptible d’être utilisé comme équipement de protection individuelle (EPI) lors de travaux en hauteur.-3The device according to the invention is likely to be used as personal protective equipment (PPE) during work at height.
