Description

zip line buffer device

The present invention relates to a zipline device, and in particular, to a zipline buffer device that can avoid elastic fatigue damage of the spring and resolve instantaneous impact force.

According to reports, with the improvement of living standards, leisure activities during vacations have become an aspect that people pay more and more attention to. Many people will engage in outdoor activities in the mountains and forests, because in outdoor activities in the mountains and forests, in addition to being close to In addition to nature, the natural environment can also be used to create adventurous and challenging activities. Therefore, outdoor activities such as high-altitude zip lines have recently become popular. They mainly use steel cables to set up in the mountains and forests or use height differences to set up, and then The cable pulley set is used to allow people to glide from high places to low places using zip lines. The cable pulley set mainly has a buffer and a sliding part. The buffer is set at the end of the zip line, and people use the sliding part to slide on the cable. From the starting point of the zipline to the end of the zipline, the key point of the sliding piece of equipment is to be able to bear the weight of the people and to be able to slide on the steel cable stably without falling, and the key point of the buffering piece of equipment is to have the sliding piece During impact, the sliding parts can be effectively buffered to prevent the sliding parts from hitting the fixed column.
