A rope gripper for connecting for example a rope operated switch to a rope. The gripper comprises a body (1) defining a passage into which a rope (7) can be inserted. Two jaws (2) are mounted eccentrically on pivot pins (3) on either side of the passage and biased towards the passage such that they are pressed against an inserted rope (7). The jaws (2) are shaped and mounted such that movement of an inserted rope (7) in one direction along the passage drives the jaws (2) towards the rope (7), causing the rope (7) to be jammed within the passage, whereas movement of the rope (7) in the opposite direction along the passage drives the jaws (2) to a position in which the rope is free to slide. <IMAGE> |
