Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3278840A1] A fall protection device (100) adapted to be connected to a safety belt (200) is provided, including a frame (10) forming a containing space (120), a shaft lever (20) provided on the frame (10), a retard member (30), and a rotary drum (40). The retard member (30) is pivotally provided on the shaft lever (20) rotatably, which is received in the containing space (120), and has a friction surface (31). The rotary drum (40) is fitted around the retard member (30), and has an outer surface (460) and an inner surface (440); the outer surface (460) is adapted to be winded by the safety belt (200), and the inner surface (440) faces to the friction surface (31). In a first operating state, the retard member (30) and the rotary drum (40) rotate coaxially. In a second operating state, the rotary drum (40) rotates relative to the fixed retard member (30). A rotational friction is generated between the friction surface (31) and the inner surface (440), which slows down the rotational speed of the rotary drum (40).
