Abstract
Description
L'invention est relative à un bloqueur pour corde fixe, comportant un flasque métallique équipé d'une goulotte de logement de la corde, d'une gâchette pivotante destinée à bloquer la corde contre la surface interne de la goulotte lorsque le flasque est sollicité dans le sens de la descente, et d'une poignée de préhension ergonomique pour la prise en main du bloqueur.The invention relates to a blocker for fixed rope, comprising a metal flange equipped with a chord housing chute, a pivoting trigger for locking the rope against the inner surface of the chute when the flange is loaded into the direction of descent, and an ergonomic grip for gripping the blocker.
Les bloqueurs de progression à poignée sont prévus pour les remontées sur corde fixe simple de 8mm à 13mm. Le corps du bloqueur est généralement en alliage d'aluminium, et la gâchette en acier chromé. Il est connu de conformer la poignée selon une anse de préhension agencée sous le bloqueur. La poignée et le corps du bloqueur sont fabriqués par découpage et pliage d'une même tôle en alliage d'aluminium. La prise en main de la poignée s'effectue à un niveau décalé par rapport à la zone de blocage de la corde dans la goulotte du bloqueur. L'encombrement de ce type de bloqueur de progression est assez important.Handle progress clamps are designed for single rope lifts from 8mm to 13mm. The body of the blocker is usually aluminum alloy, and the trigger is chromed steel. It is known to conform the handle according to a gripping handle arranged under the blocker. The handle and the body of the blocker are manufactured by cutting and folding the same sheet of aluminum alloy. The handling of the handle is made at a level offset from the locking area of the rope in the chute of the blocker. The size of this type of progress blocker is quite important.
L'objet de l'invention consiste à réaliser un bloqueur sur corde fixe, ayant une prise en main optimum et confortable ainsi qu'un encombrement réduit.The object of the invention is to provide a fixed rope locker, having an optimum grip and comfortable and a small footprint.
Le bloqueur selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que la poignée s'étend sur toute la longueur à l'extérieur de la goulotte, et que l'axe d'articulation de la gâchette est situé à un niveau intermédiaire entre les extrémités opposées de la poignée.The blocker according to the invention is characterized in that the handle extends over the entire length outside the chute, and the axis of articulation of the trigger is located at an intermediate level between the opposite ends of the chute. the handle.
Le bloqueur tient facilement dans la main de l'utilisateur, avec une tenue confortable et efficace.The blocker easily fits in the user's hand, with a comfortable and efficient fit.
Selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel, la poignée comporte une butée inférieure d'appui de la main, et une protubérance supérieure servant de cale d'index.According to a preferred embodiment, the handle comprises a lower bearing abutment of the hand, and an upper protuberance serving as an index wedge.
La poignée peut être rapportée sur la goulotte par des moyens de fixation, ou faire partie intégrante du flasque métallique.The handle can be attached to the chute by fastening means, or be an integral part of the metal flange.
La poignée est réalisée de préférence en matière plastique moulée.The handle is preferably made of molded plastic.
