1. An apparatus for use with a safety line, comprising:
a body having a receiving channel defining a longitudinal axis and a mouth opening, the receiving channel configured to receive a longitudinal section of the safety line into coaxial alignment with the receiving channel; an occluder element configured to translate relative to the body, in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis and the received longitudinal section of the safety line, across at least part of the mouth opening when mechanically mounted to the body for movement between an open position which provides sufficient access to the receiving channel to allow the safety line to be inserted therein or removed therefrom, and a closed position in which the mouth opening of the receiving channel is at least partly occluded by the occluder element to prevent passage of the safety line out of the receiving channel; and a connector configured to connect the apparatus to a lanyard when the occluder element is in the closed position, but not when the occluder element is in the open position, and
wherein the connector includes a plurality of apertures which are aligned when the occluder element is in the closed position, but are out of alignment when the occluder element is in the open position, andwherein said apertures are provided through each of the occluder element and the body, and said apertures are arranged to match-up with one another when the occluder element is in the closed position. |
