ANCHOR ASSEMBLY FOR SAFETY DEVICE

摘要

An anchor assembly ( 3 ) for securing at least one safety device indirectly to a structure is disclosed. The anchor assembly includes at least two spacers ( 10,20 ), including a first spacer and a second spacer; at least one bridging member ( 50 ) spanning between the spacers; and engagement means ( 30,40 ) for securing the safety device to the anchor assembly. Each spacer includes securing means for securing the spacer directly to the structure; a head for fastening the spacer to the bridging member and/or to the engagement means; and a shaft extending between the securing means and the head. The shaft of at least the first spacer is adapted to deform progressively so as to at least partially absorb the kinetic energy applied by a load of a falling object attached to the safety device.
