A roping harness having a sit harness, pair of shoulder straps, and at least one securing link having a first strap unfurlable in the lengthwise direction, and composed of two superposed strands secured to one another by a stitching area, designed to tear when a fall happens separating the strands and moving the connecting loop from a lowered to a raised position. The securing link includes a second strap connecting the sternal attachment to the corresponding sit harness strap. The first strap bottom strand is attached to the belt and is shorter length than the unfurlable top strand. The top strand is fixed to the sternal attachment, such that tearing of the stitching area releases the bottom strand. The top strand moves to the raised position attached to the sternal attachment to transfer the reaction of the shock of a fall onto the second strap connected with the leg loops.

An apparatus for supporting a person working at height includes a harness and seat assembly. The seat assembly includes a supporting platform, flexible connection members secured to the platform, and a connector on each flexible connection member. The harness has two forward connection arrangements and a flexible load-bearing member extending between the forward connection arrangements, the forward connection arrangements transferring load from the back and the leg loops to the load-bearing member. Each forward connection arrangement includes a body permanently connected to the harness and a retainer to secure the flexible load-bearing member to the body, and an attachment aperture through which a respective connector is passed to releasably connect the connector and the attached connection member to the forward connection member. Thus, a load carried on the supporting platform is transferred through the connection members, the connectors and the forward connection arrangement to the flexible load-bearing member.

A connection arrangement for use with a wearable body harness has a first connector having a body with a first portion of a locking mechanism and a second connector having a body with a second portion of the locking mechanism. The first portion of the locking mechanism has a tab connected to the body of the first connector and a slot having a first portion extending through the body of the first connector and a second portion extending through the tab. The second portion of the locking mechanism has a tongue configured for being received through the first portion of the slot, and an intermediate connecting element having a first end connected to the body of the second connector and a second end connected to the tongue. The second end of the intermediate connecting element is offset from the body of the second connector.

A cold-weather garment for providing additional safety for those working on climbing of structures is presented. A safety harness to be combined with a cold-weather garment to provide for further safety and comfort of those who have a need for climbing structures. Furthermore, the safety harness shall further need to be coupled to a structure to promote further safety as well as be cost efficient and comfortable.

The present disclosure relates to a buckle assembly and a harness including the buckle assembly. The buckle assembly includes a male buckle and a female buckle removably coupled to the male buckle. The male buckle includes a catch and a first adjustment member extending from the catch. The first adjustment member defines a plurality of first slots therethrough, such that each first slot is configured to movably receive a first webbing therethrough. The female buckle includes a main body and a second adjustment member extending from the main body. The main body is configured to at least partially receive the catch therein. The second adjustment member defines a plurality of second slots therethrough, such that each second slot is configured to movably receive a second webbing therethrough.

A self-retracting lifeline system including a self-retracting lifeline including a retracting device and webbing extending from the retracting device, and a backpack energy absorber configured to attach to a harness at a back of a user wearing the harness, wherein the webbing includes a first end attached to the retracting device and a second end attached to the backpack energy absorber.

A roping harness comprises a belt and leg loops joined by a leg loop connection. A connector keeps the belt and the pair of leg loops together, the latter each passing through a connection ring of the connector. The belt and leg loop connection are movable with respect to one another and with respect to the body. The connector has a body, a rotation shaft and a first D-ring mounted rotatable with respect to the body around the rotation shaft. The first D-ring pivots around an axis of rotation parallel to a direction passing through the connection ring. The first D-ring is connected to the body by means of the rotation shaft fixedly mounted on the body.

A web harness system includes a sub-pelvic support portion. A leg harness portion is connected to the sub-pelvic support portion. The leg harness portion including: a first leg extension connected to a first portion of the sub-pelvic support portion; a second leg extension connected to a second portion of the sub-pelvic support portion; a right leg adjustment belt connected to the first leg extension; and a left leg adjustment belt connected to the second leg extension.

A device (1-1b) for rescuing a person (33) from a wind turbine (5), which comprises a parachute and a harness (9; 9b), which can be or is connected to the parachute, and which can be donned by the person to be rescued (33). Advantageously, a static line (2) is provided for connecting the rescue device (1-1b) to the wind turbine (5). Advantageously, rescuing maintenance personnel in an evacuation by jumping from the nacelle or an opening in the wind turbine is possible.

A connection arrangement for use with a wearable body harness includes a first connector having a first body component, a second body component, and an attachment element connected to each other by a rod having a longitudinal axis. The connection arrangement further includes a second connector removably connectable to the first connector. Each of the first body component, the second body component, and the attachment element are independently movable relative to each other about the longitudinal axis of the rod. The first connector and the second connector are removably connectable to each other via a locking and release mechanism between a first, locked configuration, where the first connector and the second connector are connected to each other, and a second, unlocked configuration, where the first connector and the second connector are disconnected from each other.
