A rope gripping device 10 comprises a housing 12 for attachment to a surface, preferably a deck, and able to receive a rope 24 extending therethrough, a module unit 20 removably engagable with the housing 12, an eccentric cam 38 having a first gripping surface 36 defined on its perimeter, and rotatably coupled to the module unit 20, a base grip 30 depending from the module unit 20 and supporting a second gripping surface 26 in an opposed configuration to the first gripping surface 36 to define a space for receiving the rope 24, and a spring acting on the cam 38 to rotation the cam to bring the gripping surfaces closer together. The cam 38 and the base grip 30 are received within the housing 12 when the module unit 20 is engaged with the housing 12, and removed from the housing 12 when the module unit 20 is disengaged from the housing. |
