Abstract: A retractable lifeline assembly includes a housing including a sidewall, a rotatable member inside the housing, a first engaging mechanism coupled to the rotatable member, and a crank including a crank handle and a second engaging mechanism. The crank is pivotally coupled to the sidewall such that the crank is selectively movable between a first crank position, in which the second engaging mechanism is engaged with the first engaging mechanism, and a second crank position, in which the second engaging mechanism is disengaged from the first engaging mechanism. The crank handle selectively engages the first engaging mechanism when the crank is in the first crank position to rotate the rotatable member.

Abstract: A ratcheting strap adjuster comprising a bracket, a webbing plate, and one or more captive members. The webbing plate is rotatably coupled to the bracket. Each of the one or more captive members is moveable between an engaged position and a disengaged position, wherein the one or more captive members restrict rotation of the webbing plate in one direction when the one or more captive members are in the engaged position and allow rotation of the webbing plate in the one direction and in an opposite second direction when the one or more captive members are in the disengaged position.
