Description
- This application is a divisional application of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/841,838, filed on May 10, 2004, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
- The present invention relates a mobile mount for attachment of a fall arrest system.
- Full protection of operators working in a situation where a fall can take place over a sufficient distance to cause injury or death is becoming generally required in most industries. Many arrangements are provided for mounting an anchor post on a structure adjacent the worker so that a personal fall arrest system can be attached to the anchor.
- Such personal fall arrests systems include a harness together with a cable system for attachment to the harness and to a suitable anchor where the cable system can be paid out to allow the worker to move to a required location but the cable system arrests any fall within a short distance. Such devices are well known and commercially available and many different designs have been proposed.
- In most cases the structure itself provides or has attached a suitable anchoring post so that the relatively high loading necessary can be readily provided by a simple post rigidly attached to the structure.
- In the interior buildings, such anchors can be mounted on a rail which allows the anchor to slide longitudinally along a track attached to the rail.
- However some structures are unsuitable for attachment of an anchor post or have been designed without the possibility of attachment of an anchor post so that operators in this environment are often unprotected against fall. In a particular area where this is problematic is in that related to aircraft where aircraft design does not lead to the suitability of attachment of mounting posts. Up until now, therefore, operators working in this environment have remained unprotected with the potential of serious injury or death.
- The above-mentioned problems of current systems are addressed by embodiments of the present invention and will be understood by reading and studying the following specification. The following summary is made by way of example and not by way of limitation. It is merely provided to aid the reader in understanding some of the aspects of the invention.
- A mobile mount for attachment of a fall arrest system is provided. The mobile mount includes a mobile base, a support, at least one base, at least one arm and at least one anchor. The mobile base has a first side and a second side. The support extends upward from proximate the first side of the mobile base. The support also has a first end coupled to the mobile base and a second end. The at least one brace is coupled between the support and the mobile base to maintain the support in an upward position in relation to the mobile base. The at least one brace is slideably coupled to the mobile base. The at least one arm assembly is coupled to the second end of the support and extends from the support so as to be cantilevered over the mobile base. The at least one anchor is configured to be attached to the fall arrest system. Moreover, the at least one anchor is coupled to the at least one arm assembly.
- On embodiment of the invention will now be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which:
-
FIG. 1 is an isometric view of the first embodiment according to the present invention. -
FIG. 2 is an isometric view of the embodiment ofFIG. 1 modified to incorporate a ladder and platform by which the operator can raise to the elevated structure. -
FIG. 3 is an isometric view of a second embodiment according to the present invention. -
FIG. 4 is an isometric view of a modified version of the embodiment ofFIG. 3 incorporating two of the components ofFIG. 3 connected together. - In
FIG. 1 is shown a first embodiment according to the present invention which includes abase 10 and a support 11 for supporting anchors orreceptacles - The base comprises a pair of
side rails 14 and 15 extending forwarding from a rear frame structure 15. At the outer end of each side rail is provided a groundengaging wheel 16 for rolling over the ground supporting the base. - The frame 15 comprises a pair of rails 17 and 18 which are parallel and generally at right angles to the
side rails rails ground wheel 20 which cooperates with aground wheel 16 in supporting the base for movement across the ground. The number of ground wheels and arrangement of ground wheels depends upon the weight to be supported and the type of ground wheel to be used. The base provides a relatively wide area for support over the ground to prevent toppling of the structure when load is applied. - At opposite ends of the frame 15 is provided a pair of
upstanding posts 22 and 23 which form a part of the support 11. The upstanding posts are formed in two sections includingupper portions cross member 24 connects the upper end of the lower portions 22B and 23B to retain the structure rigid. Asimilar cross member 25 is provided across the top of theupper portions chains 26 and 27 carried onlower pulleys 27 and 28 respectively operated by manuallyrotatable handle 29 attached to a shaft 30. The shaft 30 extends between the twopulleys 27 and 28 so the rotation of thehandle 29 pulls thechains 26 and 27 over anupper pulley upper portions - Thus the upright portion of the support 11 defined by the posts and the cross members can be raised and lowered to a required height. At the top of the upper portion of the posts is provided a cantilever arm section generally indicated at 35 forming part of the support 11. The cantilever arm structure comprises a rail 36 parallel to the
cross beams support rails rails 38 and 40 form a brace at an angle to therails 37 and 39 thus maintaining the rail 36 at a position approximately midway across the base from the frame 15 towards thewheels 16. - The rail 36 is formed by a structural tube together with a transport track attached to the underside of the structural tube so the track carries a pair of trolleys 41 and 42 which can slide along the track 43 independently of one another. Each trolley carries a respective one of the
anchors - Thus the operator shown in
FIG. 1 can be wheeled to a required location at an elevated structure with the rail 36 supported at a position above the elevated structure by any necessary adjustment of the height of the support. The location of the rail 36 over the elevated structure can be obtained by moving the base on the wheels to the required position relative to the elevated structure. The arrangement as shown is particularly suitable for location over the wing of an aircraft with the rail 36 at a position approximately head height above the operator standing on the wing. Thus the base is located under the wing with the rail 36 above the wing. - The structure is designed and arranged to provide sufficient loading so that the anchors can receive the full force obtained by an operator falling from the elevated structure.
- In practice it has been determined that the necessary loading which the anchor must accommodate is of the order of 1800 lbs. for a single operator and either 2000 lbs. or 3000 lbs. for two operators depending upon the jurisdiction where the standards are in force. Thus the anchor is not merely an anchor location but must provide sufficient strength so that the fall of a heavy operator potentially carrying heavy equipment and the impact of that fall on the personal fall arrest system can be applied to the anchor and through the anchor to the ground without damaging the structure or allowing the operator to fall beyond the intended position arrested by the fall arrest system.
- Turning now to
FIG. 2 , there is shown exactly the same structure as shown inFIG. 1 together with the additional elements of a ladder 50, a platform 51 and a hitch 52. The ladder 50 comprises side rails 53 and 54 together with transverse rungs 55. The ladder is formed of a lower section 56 and anupper section 57 which can extend at its lower section 56 by sliding along side rails at a coupling 58. The upper end of the ladder is mounted on a cross beam 59 attached to theslides 34 byposts 60. Thus the upper end of the ladder is attached to the upper part of the frame for elevation therewith so that elevation of the other part of the frame obtained by the operator rotating thehandle 29 automatically acts to lift the upper end of the ladder relative to the lower end of the ladder. The lower end of the ladder is attached to a pair ofextension pieces - Thus the lower end of the ladder is fixed and the upper extends with the support to the required height to allow the operator to climb the ladder to the required location. At the top of the ladder is provided the platform 51 which is cantilevered out from the rail 59 and may be supported by braces from the
rail 25. The platform provides a horizontal surface onto which the operator can step to transfer from the ladder to the horizontal surface and from the horizontal surface onto the structure to be worked upon. Alternatively the operator may remain on the platform to carry out the work while protected from falling by the fall restraint system provided by theanchors - Turning now to
FIG. 3 , an alternative embodiment is shown including abase 100 and a support 111 foranchors base 100 is formed bycross beams 101 and 102 carryingground wheels 103 together with longitudinal beams 104 and 105. The wheels are suitable castor wheels or may alternatively be driven wheels for moving the base by powered operation. - In this embodiment the support 111 is in the form of a
ladder structure 114 withside rails 115 and 116 together withtransverse rungs 117 and anupper platform 118. The ladder structure is again formed in two pieces with anupper part 120 which can be raised relative to alower part 121 by actuation of a manually operablechain lifting system 124. Thus the upper parts of the rails of the ladder can slide upwardly to raise theplatform 118 and theanchors cross beam 103 and is supported by braces 125 and 126 extending downwardly to the longitudinal rails 104 and 105. The lower end of the braces is attached to slidemembers 127 which can move longitudinally along the respective rails 104, 105 and carry across beam 128 which has stabilizinglegs 129 at each end. Stabilizing legs can be moved down into engagement with the ground so as to transfer some loading from the base from the wheels to the legs to maintain the base at a required location. - At the upper end of the
rails 115 and 116 of the ladder is provided a tubular receptacle 130, 131 for acurved post upper anchor posts anchors anchors - In
FIG. 4 is shown an alternative arrangement which utilizes basically the structure ofFIG. 3 arranged in a pair of such structures connected together bycross members rails post transverse rail 136 similar to the rail 36 which carries atrack 137 andtrolleys 138. Each trolley is attached to a personal safety arrest system generally indicated at 145. Thus the basic system shown inFIG. 3 can be modified to provide an elongated structure to provide an elongated protection system along the full extent of therail 136 which may be up to 30 feet in length so that a number of operators can be properly protected by personal fall arrest systems slidable along therail 136 in itstrack 137. Therail 136 can be removed from theposts FIG. 4 is slightly different in construction from that shown inFIG. 3 in that the side rails extend at an angle outwardly and the wheels are attached to the ends of the side rails rather than to the ends of thecross rail 101 as shown inFIG. 3 . It will be appreciated that different forms of base structure be designed with the intention that the structure merely provides sufficient ground engagement area to accommodate any side loads which occur as an operator falls to prevent the system from toppling and to maintain therail 136 at its elevated position despite any direction of fall of one or more operators from the elevated structure. - The structure shown in
FIG. 1 can also be extended by providing additional posts and increasing the length of therails - Since various modifications can be made in my invention as herein above described, and many apparently widely different embodiments of same made within the spirit and scope of the Claims without departing from such spirit and scope, it is intended that all matter contained in the accompanying specification shall be interpreted as illustrative only and not in a limiting sense.
