Abstract: A descender is for work at height, climbing, mountaineering, speleology or other practices using a rope. The descender device for a textile rope (F) includes a casing in which a cam mechanism (10) and an actuating lever (3) for the cam mechanism (10) are housed. The casing (2) includes a return element (13) for the rope (F). The cam mechanism (10) includes a lever pin (29) rotatably actuated by the actuation lever (3) and a movable cam (25) which is rotatably movable between a deactivation position and a locked position in which the movable cam (25) presses on the rope (F) against the return element (13). The lever pin (29) acts on a rocker member (32) which is integral with the movable cam (25) during a first rotation step of the lever pin (29) in a direction opposite to the activation direction of the movable cam (25).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a carabiner, particularly a wire carabiner, for mountaineering and climbing comprising a ring having a side, which is interrupted by an opening defined by a first and a second end, wherein said opening is closed by a spring closing member that may take an open position and a closed position, wherein the first end of the ring comprises a bulb-shaped coupling portion, with the part projecting in the transversal direction with respect to the plane of the carabiner, and wherein the closing member is of the so-called “wire lever” type and comprises a lever member consisting of a metal wire, wherein said lever member is associated with a coupling member with the coupling portion of the ring, said coupling member comprising a seat, having such shape and dimensions as to couple with said coupling portion, and a constraint portion to the lever member.

Abstract: A self-locking device for a mountaineer or a speleologist climbing up a rope is provided herein. The device includes a main body having an inner face with a sliding seat for the rope. The sliding seat is partially defined by a part of the body of the device folded upon itself and partially defined at a bottom and laterally by the inner face of the body of the device. The device includes a cam member associated with the body and able to tilt around an axis X from an open position to a position holding the rope. The self-locking device also includes one or more pulleys associated with the body. The one or more pulleys are arranged so that a longitudinal axis Z lies on a plane parallel to a plane a of major extension of the body and perpendicular to a sliding direction of the rope.

The device also includes a cam member associated with said body and able to tilt around an axis X from an open position to a position holding said rope. Further, the device includes a means for containing said rope inside said seat, in that said containment means comprise one or more pulleys associated with said body, which define to the top at least partially said sliding seat of the rope.

Abstract: Axes for mountaineering activities such as technical ice climbing, extreme mixed climbing, and dry-tooling are provided. Such axes may include a main body having a proximal portion connected to a handgrip and a distal portion connected to a tool, in which there is defined an axis X parallel to the vertical use plane of the axe, tangential to the outer end of the handgrip and the tip of the tool and intersecting the longitudinal axis (Y) of the handgrip and the longitudinal axis (Z) of the tool, so as to respectively form angles ? and ?, wherein said proximal portion of the main body is removably and adjustably connected to said handgrip, so as to modify the inclination of said handgrip according to said angle ?, is provided.
