Definitions

  • the invention relates to a descending belay device for climbing or mountaineering, especially for belaying the first or second of roped, and for controlled descent along a single or double rope.
  • Known belay systems are constituted either by a descender in 8 in die-cast or forged aluminum alloy, either by single or two oblong shaped slots. If the climber falls, the blockage is effected by friction effect on the rope, causing the climber to stop.
  • Some of these plates are associated with a shaped retaining cable loop extending perpendicular to the plane of the wafer.
  • other have holes to hang a carabiner, but all of the holes and slots lie in the same plane.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a descending insurer device facilitating maneuvers when switching between the different modes belaying of the first and second of rope, and use in descender.
  • the assembly member passes through the ends of stirrup and flange with interposition of two sockets constituting said stop means for blocking the rope.
  • each socket is fixed, and closes the slot corresponding to the opposite of the core in the narrowed part of the stirrup.
  • a boss is formed on each socket being oriented towards the inside of the caliper to improve the rope lock.
  • each socket comprises at least one lug intended to penetrate transversely into an additional hole in the flange for blocking said bush in rotation.
  • the hole has a shape rectangular with a circular central part for the passage of the organ assembly.
  • a descending belay device 10 for climbing or mountaineering comprises a metallic body 12 composed of a central flange 14 to which is attached a U-shaped bracket 16, so as to define two adjacent slots 18, 20 for the passage of the rope.
  • the core 22 of the stirrup 16 is provided in the median zone with two grooves of centering 24, 26, aligned in the plane of the flange 14 and each having a thickness slightly greater than that of the flange 14.
  • the ends of the two symmetrical wings 28, 30 of the stirrup 16 are provided with orifices 32 circulars intended to receive an assembly member 34, for example a rivet, which coaxially passes through two sockets 36, 38 and the flange 14 in the transverse direction.
  • Each socket 36, 38 constitutes a stop means fixed, which closes the corresponding slot 18, 20 opposite the core 22 and in the narrowed part of the stirrup 16.
  • a boss 39 is provided on each bushing 36, 38 to improve the blocking of the rope in the event of a fall.
  • the flange 14 extends in the median vertical plane, and comprises a first opening 40 in the form of a retaining loop, and a second opening 42 for the hooking of a carabiner in the case of the belaying of the second roped.
  • An additional hole 44 of rectangular shape is also provided. in the flange 14 to allow the passage of the assembly member 34, and the insertion of two lugs 46 projecting from each socket 36, 38 in the transverse direction.
  • the central part of hole 44 is circular, and has a diameter slightly greater than that of the rivet.
  • the two centering grooves 24, 26 of the core 22 engage in the central part of the flange 14.
  • the two sockets 36, 38 fixed are locked in rotation following the penetration of the lugs 46 in the rectangular hole 44 of the flange 14, and the bosses 39 are oriented towards the inside of the stirrup 16.
  • the core 22 forms an inclined plane arranged between the second opening 42 and the two fixed sockets 36, 38.
  • the belay device 10 according to FIGS. 1 to 4 is produced by cutting folding of an aluminum or stainless steel sheet, but it is clear that it could be forged.
  • the different modes of use of the descender insurer device 10 according to the invention are as follows:
  • the device can be used in single rope or double rope.
  • a single slot 18 or 20 is crossed longitudinally by a loop of the rope in a parallel offset plane to the flange 14.
  • the two slots 18, 20 are used, with two loops of rope extending parallel to each other and other side of flange 14.
  • the first of the rope climbs, and is provided by the second of the rope which is found below.
  • Two loops of the double rope 48 are housed in the slots 18, 20 of the descending belay device 10, and a first carabiner 50 crosses the two loops and the loop 40, being attached to the ring 52 of the harness 54 belonging to the second of rope.
  • One of hands 56 of the second of the rope hold the upper strands of the rope connected at the first of the rope, while the other hand 58 surrounds the lower strands.
  • the second opening 42 of the flange 14 is not used in this mode belay.
  • the second of rope tightens the lower strands with his hand 58 while straining the rope 48 in the direction of arrow F2. This results in jamming of the loops cord on the bosses 39 of the sockets 36, 38, and a blockage of the strands rope superiors 48.
  • the second of the rope climbs, and is provided by the first of the rope which is found above, including a relay.
  • the rope 48 is attached to the harness of the second rope, and the first carabiner 50 crosses the handle 40 and the rope loops of the apparatus 10 of the first rope, but without being attached to the harness of the latter.
  • the apparatus 10 is connected to means 60 fixed mooring via a second carabiner 62 passing through the second opening 42 of the flange 14.
  • the rope may slide freely in the apparatus 10, and the hands 56, 58 of the first of cordée accompany the movement of cord 48 (arrows F3 and F4), so as to catch up progressively the slack forming on the section between the second of the team and the apparatus 10.
  • the apparatus 10 is used as in the case of FIGS. 5 and 6, but in the direction of descent. He then behaves like a descender with the first carabiner 50 attached to the harness 54. To brake or stop the downward movement, just pull more or less vigorously on the rope with the hand 56 as we do in a classic way with single descenders.
  • An additional reminder security element 64 can be adapted on the lower strands, and controlled by the other hand 58.
