A tree saddle includes a first panel having first and second ends with a body portion disposed therebetween, and a second panel having first and second ends with a body portion disposed therebetween. One or more connecting members operably couple the first and second panels to one another. A magnetic coupling system includes a first magnetic array disposed on the first panel, and a second magnetic array disposed on the second panel. The first magnetic array is magnetically coupled to the second magnetic array when the tree saddle is in a coupled condition. The first magnetic array is uncoupled from the second magnetic array when the tree saddle is in an uncoupled condition. The tree saddle includes a first profile when the tree saddle is in the uncoupled condition that is greater than a second profile of the tree saddle when the tree saddle is in the coupled condition.

A coupler to couple a D-ring from a harness to a fall arrest device connector provides walls to guide and contain the harness webbing whilst allowing it to move freely (reducing webbing wear) and does not necessitate the removal of the coupler, connector, or D-ring as may be required for harness size adjustment. The coupler has a circular passageway which runs through the length allowing a shaft of the connector to couple to the part whilst maintaining 180 degrees of swivel. The coupler also has a groove which runs along the length to fit onto a central bar of the harness D-ring. The design is such that, during a fall, should the device break, the webbing will remain securely coupled to the D-ring of the harness.

A harness including a waist belt to which two side attachment arrangements are connected; two forward attachment arrangements. A respective riser extends between each forward attachment arrangement and one corresponding side attachment arrangement. Each side attachment arrangement includes a securing component, typically in the form of a standing ring and a lying ring assembly. The securing component is connected to the waist belt, and the lying ring assembly is held by the securing component against the waist belt. The lying ring assembly includes a retention component that, in use, passes through a loop or an eye in the riser to connect the riser to the lying ring assembly. The retention component is removable from the lying ring assembly to release the connection between the riser and the lying ring assembly.

A harness for supporting a person working at height, including a back, leg loops, two forward connection arrangements and a flexible load-bearing member extending between the connection arrangements, which flexible load-bearing member carries a sliding attachment device attached to a climbing line. The forward connection arrangements transfers load from the back and the leg loops to the load-bearing member. Each forward connection arrangement includes: a body with apertures through which a leg riser webbing of the harness pass to connect the body to the back and the leg loops of the harness; and a bridge passage through which the flexible load-bearing member passes. A forward connection arrangement further includes a rope adjuster with a cam in the bridge passage. The cam pivots on an axle on the body. The cam cooperates with a locking surface of the body within the bridge passage to effect locking of a rope.

A tree saddle includes a first panel having first and second ends with a body portion disposed therebetween, and a second panel having first and second ends with a body portion disposed therebetween. One or more connecting members operably couple the first and second panels to one another. A magnetic coupling system includes a first magnetic array disposed on the first panel, and a second magnetic array disposed on the second panel. The first magnetic array is magnetically coupled to the second magnetic array when the tree saddle is in a coupled condition. The first magnetic array is uncoupled from the second magnetic array when the tree saddle is in an uncoupled condition. The tree saddle includes a first profile when the tree saddle is in the uncoupled condition that is greater than a second profile of the tree saddle when the tree saddle is in the coupled condition.

The present invention is directed to a sling climbing harness for use in industrial and recreational activities where the climbing harness is worn by a user to securely attach themself to a safety rope or other device. The climbing harness provides a waistbelt and/or leg loops each including one or more adjustable spliced sling loops. Each of the one or more sling loops is a cord having a first end formed into a fixed loop and a second end passing through the fixed loop and spliced into an adjustable loop to form an adjustable locking connection. The user can then adjust each sling loop individually for a custom fitment of the waistbelt or leg loops of the present invention.

Disclosed is an improved load-balancing strap hub and connector for a bag or pack.

A harness adjustment device for adjusting a length of webbing includes a toothed rotational member including a spool structured to receive the webbing and an end portion including teeth disposed at an end of the spool, the toothed rotational member being structured to rotate to draw in or let out the webbing, and an engagement mechanism having an engagement portion. The engagement portion is structured to move between a first position in which the engagement portion abuts against the toothed rotational member between at least two of the teeth and prevents rotation of the toothed rotational member, and a second position in which the engagement portion is separated from the toothed rotational member and allows rotation of the toothed rotational member.

A web harness belt includes multiple layers. A first elastomer layer portion and a second elastomer portion each connected to a ballistic material layer of the multiple layers. The first elastomer layer portion and the second elastomer layer portion each including multiple belt configuration slots.

A preferred embodiment suspension trauma relief strap assembly for use with a full body harness includes a pair of straps connectable in two configurations. The first configuration is formed by engaging a hook of one strap with one of a plurality of closed loop arrangements of the other strap to form a sling upon which a person donning the full body harness may stand. The second configuration is formed by engaging the hook of the one strap with one of the plurality of closed loop arrangements of the one strap and engaging the hook of the other strap with one of the plurality of closed loop arrangements of the other strap to form two slings upon which a person donning the full body harness may stand.
