A releasable coupling device comprises a body comprising an aperture and a sleeve positioned at least partially around, and moveable relative to, at least a portion of the body. The sleeve is moveable between an open position in which at least a portion of the aperture is at least partially unoccluded so as to permit coupling of the device to an attachment receivable within the aperture, and a closed position in which at least a portion of the aperture is at least partially occluded so as to resist decoupling of the of the device by removal of an attachment from the aperture. The device defines a track configured to guide an attachment receivable within the aperture along a movement path.

A gated safety hook includes a structural, load bearing frame, a gate, and a user actuated catch. The gate closes automatically in response to an object being mounted on the hook, the catch automatically moves to lock the gate closed in response to an object being mounted on the hook, and the gate cannot be opened with an object mounted on the hook without engaging against the object.
