  • Patent number: 10426982
    Abstract: A securing device for securing a person has an axle element attached torque-proofly to a rope drum and rotatably to a support structure, such that, by the axle element, the rope drum is supported rotatably at the support structure. A lever is attached pivotably to the support structure at a deflection point. In a blocking position of the lever, a blocking section is coupled to the rope drum in order to disable a rotation of the rope drum, and in a releasing position of the lever, the blocking section is decoupled from the rope drum and the rope drum is rotatable. A thread section of the lever is coupled to a further thread section of the axle element, such that, upon rotation of the axial element, due to the rotation of the rope drum, the thread section is shifted along the axle element, such that, due to the shifting of the thread section, a rotation of the lever around the deflection point and an adjustment between the blocking position and the releasing position of the lever are effected.

  • Patent number: 10357702
    Abstract: A system for controlling use of an exercise course by a person in a climbing park has a guiding element, which extends along a longitudinal direction and along which a person can move between a connecting section of the guiding element and a disconnecting section of the guiding element. A securing device is movably attachable along the guiding element between the connecting section and the disconnecting section. The securing device is connectable to the guiding element in the connecting section and is disconnectable from the guiding element in the disconnecting section. An identification device is configured such that, by the identification device, at least a connecting of the securing device within the identification section is identifiable, such that an occupancy of the guiding element with another person is identifiable therewith.

  • Patent number: 10036202
    Abstract: A fall arrest device for securing a climber to a cable in a manner that prevents the climber from falling. The device can run along an elongate securing cable as the climber ascends and descends during use. The device has a base body having a guide element and a receiving body having longitudinal axis designed to receive the cable therebetween, a housing fastened movably on the base body, and a securing element having a first securing bolt. The securing element is fastened rotatably on the base body and the housing in order to clamp the cable against the receiving body to arrest the climber during a fall.
