A device to automate or semiautomate a fish tape is provided that can include an attachable handle with battery operated motor, rollers, gears and controls that can be integrated into its own or existing fish tape spools. Another embodiment provides a left and right plate and an assembly about a member to be driven by a crank or other automated means to mobilize a fish tape which over comes the limitations of existing manual and automatic fish tapes making it safer, more efficient and easier for an operator to pull wire.

A fall arrest system includes a line retraction device having a safety line, an energy absorber configured for connecting to a terminal end of the safety line, and a harness configured for connecting to the energy absorber such that the energy absorber is disposed between the terminal end of the safety line and the harness. The safety line is selected to have a predetermined mean breaking force with a first standard deviation, and the energy absorber is selected to have a predetermined mean deployment force with a second standard deviation. The mean breaking force of the safety line and the mean deployment force of the energy absorber overlap over an overlapping region of the first and second standard deviation. A ratio of an overlap mean force of the overlapping region to an overlap standard deviation of the overlapping region is less than or equal to 6.

A wire retracting device includes a base having a platform, a limiting board disposed on the base, a cover including a top surface and a side wall, a slide block slidably disposed on a sliding area, and a transmission wire disposed in an accommodating space formed between the cover and the base. An annular wall is arranged on the platform, and has a limiting portion that has a first stop portion and a second stop portion respectively formed on two sides thereof. A gap, in which the cover is limited to being movable, is formed between the limiting board and the platform. The top surface has a grooved opening, and a lever is arranged on an inner edge thereof. The side wall is disposed along an edge of the top surface. The sliding area is formed between the inner edge of the grooved opening and the annular wall.

A web retractor includes a frame having spaced-apart side walls, a spool rotatably mounted between the side walls, a web having one end mounted to the spool, the spool rotatable in a web take-up direction to wrap the web onto the spool and in a web pay out direction to unwrap the web from the spool, and a web take-up prevention apparatus movably mounted to the frame and responsive actuation thereof to move relative to the frame to impart a resistance directly on the web sufficient to prevent the spool from rotating in the web take-up direction while also allowing the spool to rotate in the web pay out direction by pulling the web away from the retractor.

The present invention relates to an automatic winding device for a golf towel, which can hold a towel out of a case when a user pulls the towel and automatically wind the towel so that the towel is put into the case when the user pulls and releases the towel after using it, thereby providing user convenience.

Disclosed is a hooking device of a VR data cable, configured to hang the VR data cable, including a buffer, a hang assembly, and an adjustment assembly. The buffer is hung on a hook of a ceiling. The hang assembly is configured to hang the VR data cable. One end of the adjustment assembly is connected to the buffer, and the other end of the adjustment assembly is connected to the hang assembly, and the adjustment assembly adjusts a hang height of the VR data cable through elastic expansion and contraction.

A strap may be removably attachable to a container. The strap may include a retractor having an opening, a retraction spring and a brake. The strap may further include a strip of flexible material attached to the retraction spring and extending through the opening of the retractor. The strap may also include clips attaching the retractor and distal end of the flexible material to the container. The strip of flexible material may move from a fully retracted position, where the distal end of the strip of flexible material is nearest the retractor, relative to the entire length of the strip of flexible material, to an extended position where the distal end of the strip of flexible material is furthest from the retractor. The retraction spring may bias the strip of flexible material into/toward the fully retracted position.
