Abstract

See full text

A device and method are provided for protection during ascent, in particular, for climbing electricity poles, trees or other high structures. The device, including a non-fixed rope that is to be carried by the ascending person, includes a retaining means for fixing the device to a fixed anchoring point in a predetermined position. A structural configuration enables the introduction of the rope into the device, fixed in the predetermined position, from below. A first redirecting means is provided by which the rope can be guided through the device on a curved path. A mechanism automatically locks off the rope when the speed of movement of the rope through the device exceeds a predetermined limit value. A second redirecting means is provided by which the rope emerging from the device can be guided out of the device in the direction of ascent. A laterally arranged flat first bearing surface is provided.
