An attachment device to an anchor point comprises a wire-like element provided with two ends a first end of which has a first ring. A clamp has two ends a first end of which can be inserted in the first ring. The second clamp end presents a second cross-section larger than the first cross-section. The first clamp end defines a through hole receiving a rope supporting a user. The second end of the wire-like element is fixed to the clamp via a first attachment point between the through hole and the second clamp end. A cord has a first end fixed to the clamp via a second attachment point and a second end with a second ring.

Attachment device to an anchor point and method for using the attachment device

A rescue device includes a pulley includes a support flange with two rotation shafts mounted salient and extending in a first direction. Two sheaves are mounted rotatable around two rotation shafts to define a running line of a cable. Two flanges are mounted rotatable between a first position and a second position. A first blocker is configured to present a first position blocking the first flange in the closed position and a second position allowing rotation of the first flange. A second blocker is configured to present a first position blocking the second flange in the closed position and a second position allowing rotation of the second flange. The second blocker is independent from the first blocker.

Double pulley, rescue device comprising such double pulley and method for using such rescue device

A camming clamping device comprising: a head sub-assembly including a head provided with a cam and a rod sub-assembly having a rod and at least one wire element. The wire element passes through the rod. The rod delineates a through hole designed to receive a connector. The wire element delineates the through hole. The wire element defines at least one loop that is attached to head to constitute a mechanical continuity between the head and the attachment point. The at least one loop is passed through by a tube. The tube and the at least one loop are passed through by an anchorage fixed to the head to constitute the mechanical continuity between the head and the attachment point.

Camming clamping device and method for manufacturing one such device and method for replacing a wire element of one such device

A connection device comprises a connector forming a ring with an open position and a closed position. A handle is fixed to the connector and has two extensions receiving a user's hands. The handle defines a tube extending in a first direction and a through hole arranged to pass through the tube perpendicularly to the first direction. A first end of a wire member forms a loop fixed to the connector in the tube. The second end of the wire member is fixed to the user. The connector passes through the through hole and the loop to fix the handle and the wire member to the connector.

Connection device with improved handle

The quick link has a body defining an open link with two opposite ends. The body comprises a straight portion separating two curved portions. A locking ring is fitted rotating and sliding with respect to the body with a closed position closing the link and an open position where the quick link is open. A shutter is fitted removable with respect to the body. The shutter defines an attachment means fixing the shutter to the straight portion and a blocking system fixing the shutter to the locking ring. The attachment means and blocking system are formed by a ring or a hook. The attachment means and blocking system allow rotation of the shutter with respect to the body when the locking ring is in the open position and prevent rotation of the shutter when the locking ring is in the closed position.

Quick link with shutter

A removable anchoring device comprising a fixed first part with an expansion head, and a movable second control part having wedging half-rings and a gripping knob associated with a stop and a spring. The stop is arranged on the fixed first part and is movable with respect to the gripping knob by a relative translational movement to disable any release command in a predefined position. The gripping knob is thus able to occupy a first axial adjustment position offset from the stop to indicate the non-locked state enabling the release command, and is movable to a second axial adjustment position in engagement against the stop to indicate the locked state and to disable said release command.

Safety removable anchoring device

The pulley device comprises first and second pulleys each provided with a set of sheaves. The two pulleys are designed to be respectively fixed to a fixed point and to a person to be rescued. A rope is fixed to one of the two pulleys and arranged in such a way that the first pulley moves towards the second pulley when a pull is exerted on the rope. An enclosure connects the first pulley to the second pulley and surrounds the path of the rope between the two pulleys. One end of the rope extends outwards from the enclosure to enable a pull to be exerted on the end of the rope.

Pulley device

Ascender for ascending on a rope, comprising a U-shaped clamp equipped with two lateral wings delineating an internal space for passage of the rope, and with an arresting surface with spikes against which the rope is blocked in case of a fall. The two wings are provided with two openings arranged facing one another and each having an edge in the form of an inclined ramp performing guiding of a karabiner passing through the two openings. The clamp comprises a mobile control part biased by a spring to an active actuation position of the karabiner along the ramp for the rope to come into contact against the arresting surface with spikes, so as to obtain a first ready-to-block state when ascending on the rope, and a second blocking state of the clamp on the rope in the event of a fall.

Ascender for ascending on a rope

The invention relates to a clamp with a cam, and with a removable pivot-pin, wherein the bias spring is integrated in a housing of the cam by means of a securing cassette configured to position the spring in a pre-stressed state. The cassette is provided with clip-fastening means designed to be fitted in the housing of the lever.

LED lamp provided with a variable-geometry beam device

A swivel attachment device comprising a pair of rings able to rotate freely with respect to one another around an axis of rotation defined by a central pivot-pin. At least one of the rings is in the form of a hook delineating a lateral access space. A removable closing part, composed of a spacer through which a fixing screw passes, is able to close said space performing partial take-up of the tensile forces.

Attachment device with improved openable swivel

A lamp, as for example a headlamp, comprising: The lamp also includes a processor for image processing capable of performing complex analysis of the image, including the recognition of a rope, fog detection etc. . . .

LED lamp comprising a power regulating device

A sharpener for an ice screw with a tubular shank and a bit, comprising:

Ice screw sharpener

LED lamp fitted with a safety device

A safety apparatus on a rope, including a first flange-plate, an operable second flange-plate, and a mechanical indicator collaborating when the swiveling movement takes place with both the first pivot-pin and a latch to indicate that the second flange-plate is in the closed and latched position, or in an unlatched ready-to-open state.
