ENERGY ABSORBING DEVICE FOR FALL PROTECTION SYSTEM
An energy absorbing device includes a body having a first path of reduced strength extending from a first end to near a central axis of the body. The first path of reduced strength includes a plurality of perforations extending through the body and disposed adjacent to each other. The plurality of perforations is arranged in a first spiral shape. The body also includes a second path of reduced strength spaced apart from the first path of reduced strength. The second path of reduced strength extends from a second end to near the central axis of the body. The second path of reduced strength has a second spiral shape. Upon application of a force above a threshold at the first end and the second end in opposing directions, the body is configured to separate along the first path of reduced strength and the second path of reduced strength to absorb energy.
