  • 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: 9707976
    Abstract: A device that is movable along a track defined by a cable has a main frame including a pair of side walls and a transverse connector by which the side walls are joined together. A pair of pulleys is disposed between the side walls, with the pulleys being engagable with a cable and rotatable for movement of the device along the cable. A fitting by which handles are removably attachable to the main frame is secured between the side walls, and aligned receptacles in the side walls provide for reception of hardware to preclude disengagement of the cable from the pulleys during use.

  • Patent number: 9174072
    Abstract: For the purpose of avoiding accidents during use, a self-belay set with two carabiners (K1 and K2) which can be hung at belay points (2) and which are each attached to a connection piece (6) attached to the self-belaying person, is characterized in that the blocking devices (15, 17) of the two carabiners (K1, K2) are coupled by a coupling means (7, 7), and characterized by a belay means (5) provided for the carabiners (K1, K2) which by means of the blocking device (15, 17) prohibits the carabiners from opening during the hanging of a carabiner (K1, K2) at the belay point (2) and during operation of the belay means (5). The blocking devices (17, 25) of the second carabiner (K1, K2) are operated via the coupling means (7, 7) in such a way that the second carabiner (K1, K2) is released for opening such that at all times only one of the carabiners (K1, K2) can be opened.

  • Patent number: 8387218
    Abstract: A belaying system includes a fastening component suspended on a securing means. The fastening component secures a load connected to the fastening component. The fastening component includes a bar. The fastening component and the bar hold the securing means. When unlocked, the bar rotates to enable the fastening component to be removed from the securing means. When locked, the bar cannot rotate and the fastening component cannot be removed from the securing means. The bar is unlocked with an unlocking element. The bar is locked with a locking element. The unlocking element and the locking element are fastened directly or indirectly by and/or on the securing means separately from one another. When the unlocking element is fastened to the fastening component the bar is unlocked and the fastening component remains suspended from the unlocking element. When the locking element is fastened to the fastening component the unlocking element is unfastened.

  • Publication number: 20110047764
    Abstract: A self-securing device, comprising a stop element (K) that can be suspended on a securing means (2, 2?), said element being connectable to a person (P) to be secured by way of a connection element (6), is characterized for the purpose of ease of handling by the combination of the following characteristics: —the stop element (K) comprises a cut-out section (A) that can be closed by way of a barrier (8) for holding the securing element (2, 2), —the barrier can be unlocked by way of an unlocking element (26), thereby releasing the cut-out section (A)—and the barrier can also be locked by way of a locking element (5), thereby closing the cut-out section (A), —wherein the unlocking element (26) and the locking element (5) are fastened directly or indirectly by and/or on the securing means (2, 2?) separately from one another and—the unlocking element (26) can be moved toward the stop element (K) suspended in/on the securing means (2, 2?) and can be fastened thereto, thereby releasing the cut-out section (A), and th
