BELAYING APPARATUS FOR SPORT CLIMBING
A belaying apparatus for sport climbing, comprising a winding/unwinding drum for a climbing rope (C); motor means intended for bidirectional rotation thereof; a braking device; a detector device; and a controller intended to receive the output of the detector device and control the motor means based at least thereon. The braking device and the detector device are combined in a single detector and braking assembly (9) through a shared element (130) that defines both a braking surface and an element responsive to movements of the rope. A process for belaying a climber comprises the not necessarily sequential steps of securing an end of a rope to a climber, securing an opposed end of the rope to a winding/unwinding drum set into rotation by motor means, providing an intended path for a length of rope, detecting movements of rope within the intended path, driving the motor means based at least on the detected movements, and braking the rope within the path.
