ABSTRACT:
An anchorage connector is comprised generally of an attachment device, a base plate and a generally arched shaped anchoring ring. The attachment device secures the connector to the surface of an object. The base plate is connected to the attachment device and helps to distribute forces to which the connector is subjected, across the surface of an object when the connector is secured to the object by the attachment device. The generally arched shaped anchoring ring has its upper end attached to the upper portion of the base plate and its lower end attached to the lower portion of the base plate such that the anchoring ring is positioned approximately perpendicular to the base plate. The width of the anchoring ring when viewed in a plane parallel to the base plate is greater at its upper and lower ends than at its apex such that the width of the ring is tapered towards its apex to encourage and direct the movement of a hook latched around the anchoring ring toward its apex when the ring is horizontally oriented, or toward the lower end of the anchoring ring when the anchoring ring is vertically oriented.
