ABSTRACT:
A safety clamp appliance is disclosed formed of a cable or rope housing having opposed hinged walls for opening to receive a rope and a generally U-shaped cross-section, the housing interior being adapted with a rope slide to receive a safety rope, a brake lever having a pivot point, a brake surface and a handle for attachment to a climber's belt. The brake lever is pivotally mounted in the housing. An actuating spring is provided for spring loading the brake lever, thereby maintaining a constant pressure by the brake surface on the rope. The actuating spring is provided with a quick release fastener to disconnect from the brake lever for converting the safety clamp appliance from a spring loaded mode to a non-spring loaded mode.
