Abstract
A connection system for connecting and disconnecting loads to a belt harness is disclosed. The connection system according to the present disclosure may permit simplified, fast and safe handling under icing conditions, line of sight obstruction and/or with gloves.
Claims15
A connection system for connecting and disconnecting loads to a belt harness, the connection system comprising
- a base element having connection means for attachment to a belt harness;
- and
- a load element with connecting means for connecting a load;
- wherein the base element and the load element are designed such that they can be brought into a contact position against one another, the contact position characterized in that the load element is partially fixed to the base element;
- wherein a movable locking element is provided for completely fixing the load element being in the contact position at the base element,
- wherein in the contact position the locking element can be brought into a closed position relative to the base element and the load element, the closed position characterized in that the load element is completely positively locked to the base element,
- wherein the connecting system is configured to provide a quick release system for separating the load element from the base element immediately from the closed position, and
- wherein the base element and the load element are configured in such a way that, in the contact position, they are positively secured in an X-Y plane (X-Y) against displacement in this X-Y plane, and are positively secured against rotation about a Z axis (Z) extending perpendicular to the X-Y plane, and can be moved in one direction of the Z axis (Z) and cannot be moved in its opposite direction.

- wherein the connecting system is configured to provide a quick release system for separating the load element from the base element immediately from the closed position,
- wherein the load element is a planar component having an inner planar recess of a defined base area,
- wherein the base element is a component having a through opening formed by a tunnel-like elevation, wherein the base element are of the elevation coincides with the base element are of the planar recess of the load element and the elevation fits into the planar recess,
- wherein the contact position is given by inserting the elevation into the planar recess, and
- wherein in the contact position the tunnel-like elevation of the base element protrudes above the load element, so that an upper part of the through opening lies above the load element and this can be passed through by a latch movable above the load element in order to assume the closed position.
