Abstract: A top bracket for supporting a safety cable of a vertical climbing fall protection system, the bracket including a base plate and a pivotally deflectable plate that is integrally and pivotally connected to the base plate by a neck. The top bracket may also include an abutment plate with a forward abutment surface that is separated from a rearward abutment surface of the pivotally deflectable plate by an elongate gap.

Abstract: Connectors for coupling fall arresting devices to a safety harness. The connectors may include a first pin configured to lock into a first side of a base portion using one or more locking mechanisms. The first pin may be used to engage with one or more fall arresting devices to attach the one or more fall arresting devices to the connector. In some such examples, the locking mechanisms may be positioned within interior portions of the first side of the connector so as to allow the one or more fall arresting devices to pivot freely about the ends of the connector. In some examples, the connectors may include a second pin configured to lock into a second side of the base portion using one or more locking mechanisms. The second pin may be used to conveniently and releasably attached the connector to a safety harness of a worker.

Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring and reporting the condition of a permanent fall-protection safety system. The systems and methods use a sensor to obtain data corresponding to a physical state of at least one component of the safety system, the at least one component and the sensor being at a remote location and/or at an elevated height, relative to a base unit. The systems and methods further include wirelessly transmitting the data to the base unit, processing the data to reach an indication of a change in a physical state of the at least one component of the safety system, and reporting the condition of the safety system based on the indication of the physical state of the at least one component of the safety system.
