IMPROVED FALL ARREST SYSTEM FOR A PERSON CLIMBING A LADDER
A fall-arrest system for a person climbing a ladder (7) affixed to or supported by a structure, comprises: an elongate track securable to the ladder (7) so as to lie adjacent to the intended route of a person climbing or descending the ladder; a sliding device (13) which in use is coupled to the elongate track and configured to be freely displaceable therealong when the person is climbing the ladder; and a safety line (12) extending from the sliding device (13) for attachment to a harness attachment point of a safety harness worn by the person climbing or descending the ladder, the sliding device (13) incorporating a locking mechanism configured to allow the sliding device (13) to freely slide along the elongate track during normal movement of the person connected thereto by the safety line and to automatically lock the sliding device (13) to the elongate track in the event of the person falling from said ladder. The fall-arrest system is characterised in that the elongate track comprises a flexible belt (8) configured to depend from an upper end of the ladder.
