Definitions

the present invention relates to an up and abseil device, with a base plate on which a freely rotating abseiling roller with backstop, which contains a number of spring-loaded pinch rollers, is attached.
a freely rotating abseiling roller with backstop which contains a number of spring-loaded pinch rollers.
Such a device is commercially available and is recognized as an official rescue device in some states.
the basic concept with the freely rotating pulley is based on an idea that was published in CH-A-526 308.
Fig. 1 you can see the base plate 1, the abseiling roller 2 and the blocking device 3, which is integrated with the base plate and is protected from the weather.
the abseiling roller 2, as presented in Fig. 1, is known and is described in the aforementioned patent specification, with particular reference to the backstop with the pinch rollers, which lies between two life-lubricated ball bearings sealed on both sides.
the abseiling roller turns freely and when abseiling it is fixed by the pinch rollers.
the rescue rope is wrapped around the abseiling roller two and a half times, which results in a braking effect and only a minimal holding force is required on the empty rope.
the lateral, special cable guide is not shown, while the lower cable guide 4 is shown schematically because it is already known.
the two openings 5 and 6 in the base plate 1 serve to fasten the abseiling device by means of a steel cable loop and other devices.
the second backstop is recorded, which contains a ring gear 7 which is fastened on the side of the abseiling roller 2 facing the base plate 1, for example by means of Allen screws 8.
the ring gear works together with a locking member 9 in such a way that the abseiling roller can turn freely in the direction of rotation indicated by the arrow and is locked in the opposite direction.
the first backstop with the pinch rollers enables the same freewheel, respectively blocking the rotation of the abseiling roller.
the locking member has a pin 10, around which a spring 11 is arranged, which is arranged in a longitudinal bore 12 in the base plate.
the locking cam 13 of the locking member 9 runs in a slot 14 and protrudes beyond the base plate in order to be able to engage in the tooth spaces 7b of the toothed disk, while the wider body 15 of the locking member runs in a corresponding recess in the base plate.
the teeth 7a push the locking member upward against the pressure of the spring 11 in FIG. 2 and in the opposite direction the spring presses the locking cam of the locking member downward into the locking position.
the locking member 9 is closed by a disc 16 which is provided with a transparent window 17 in order to be able to control the position of the locking member from the outside.
the blocking device 3 is accommodated in a housing, of which only the housing plate 18 is shown in FIG. 4 is, while the lid can be fastened by means of screws in the holes 19.
the housing plate has a shaped recess 20 in which the organs of the blocking device are accommodated.
the blocking device contains a pressure roller 22 which is rotatable about axis 21 and which is connected to a lever 23.
the pressure roller 22 has an inwardly curved outer side in order to enclose the cable 24.
the other end of the lever 23 is movably connected about the axis 25 to a clamping lever 26 which is mounted on the rigid axis 27. This clamping lever 26 also has a concave curvature on its front side 28 in order to receive the rope.
the centrifugal force trigger 29 consists of a release lever 32 which is mounted about the axis 33 and in rear third has a pin 34 to which one end of a tension spring 35 is attached, the other end of which is attached to the pinch roller. In the position shown in FIG. 4, the spring 35 holds the release lever 32 in the retracted position.
a pressure spring 36 acts via a pin 37 on the lever 23 and with it on the pressure roller 22 so that it is pressed against the rope and rotates when the rope slides downward. If either the other end of the rope is released or torn off, one is created on the marked rope end at the blocking device strong acceleration of the rope downwards and as a result the centrifugal force trigger is thrown around and reaches the position of FIG. 5, the free end of the release lever 32 reaching behind the nose 38 in the recess 20. As a result, the pressure roller is blocked on the one hand and, on the other hand, pressed against the rope, due to the lever action of the release lever.
the lever 23 is activated, which in turn presses the clamping lever 26 in the direction of the rope, whereby a double clamping effect is achieved by the pressure roller and by the clamping lever. This causes the rope to be locked quickly and completely in the blocking device. Because the axis 27 of the clamping lever is mounted in an indentation 39 of the recess 20, the effect of the clamping lever is retained even if the axis 27 should break.
