Various embodiments illustrated herein disclose a full body harness that includes a connector. The connector includes a first plate and a second plate, where the first plate is identical to the second plate. The first plate and the second plate includes a plurality of slits to facilitate passage of a first harness and a second harness therethrough. The first plate is rotatably coupled to the second plate such that they are rotatable with respect to each other. Such a connector automatically enables easy adjustment of the harness based on an activity of a user who is wearing the harness.

Harness connector

An apparatus and an associated method relates to a directionally polarized deceleration module (PDM) include a shuttle () fixedly coupled to a spring-biased spool () rotatable coupled to a module housing (), a dynamic braking member (DBM) () and the shuttle () configured to travel inside a channel anchored to the module housing (). A tether may be anchored on a proximal end to the spool (). As the tether is retracted, the DBM () may be pushed by an angled distal-end of the shuttle (). The DBM () may be forced between the angled distal-end of the shuttle () and an inner channel wall, providing motional resistance to the tether. As the tether is extracted, the DBM () may be pushed substantially normal to a proximal-end of the shuttle (), providing minimal motional resistance to the tether. Various PDMs may decelerate safety lanyards in one direction to substantially avoid tangling and/or damage.
