    Abstract: Anchor devices for fall protection are provided. The anchor device may comprise a structural sheet and at least one anchorage connector. The sheet may be a one-sided sheet or a two-sided sheet and may comprise a plurality of slots with an elongated or round profile for connecting the sheet to a working structure such as a roof. In some embodiments, the slots are at an angle. The anchorage connector may be one of the following structures: 1) a loop with a hole extending therethrough, the loop being integral with the sheet; 2) a lateral extension having a tubular portion that engages a connector ring; and/or 3) a bent extension connected to a connector ring via a bolt. In some embodiments, the anchor device may further comprise one or more testing projections.

  • Patent number: 11939781
    Abstract: A module for a fall protection system comprises a structural sheet having a ridge and an attachment panel extending laterally therefrom and one or more attachment sections. The attachment panel can be secured to a structure. The module has one or both of: (i) an anchorage connector attached to the ridge at an attachment section; and (ii) a rail clamp having a sleeve portion and a leg portion attached to the ridge at an attachment section; a rail extending through and supported by the sleeve portion; and a slider supported on the rail. The slider is slideably movable along the rail and has a slider anchorage connector. The ridge may be received in a flashing ridge having a flashing extending laterally therefrom to provide coverage for the attachment panel. A person may be attached to the anchorage connector or the slider anchorage connector via a safety line.

  • Patent number: 11554277
    Abstract: A fall protection system having one or more modules is provided. Each module is made of a structural sheet having a ridge and at least one attachment panel, and a user attachment mechanism. The attachment panel can be secured to a working structure. The module can further have a restraining mechanism for resisting at least lateral and rotational movement of the ridge up to a threshold force, and be configured to fail or deform and permit lateral and rotational movement of the ridge if the threshold force is exceeded. The restraining mechanism can be tabs extending from the attachment panel, fasteners, welds, or another mechanism for resisting lateral and rotational movement of the ridge.
