  • Patent number: 6390234
    Abstract: The safety harness assembly has a body harness securable on the user's torso. Shoulder straps of the body harness are provided with non-stretchable sleeves enclosing an insert with limited stretching capabilities that provide shock-absorption during an accidental fall. The length of the sleeve is greater than that of the insert in a normal, non-stretched mode. If the user falls, the insert stretches to the maximum length of the enclosing sleeve, distributing forces to the leg and breast straps of the harness. The shoulder straps slide through a floating O-ring and are fixedly secured to a D-ring in the back of the harness. A lanyard with limited stretching capabilities is fixedly secure to the O-ring and the D-ring. The three-point safety shock-absorbing harness allows retaining the user in a vertical position during an accidental fall.
