Abstract: An aerial lift that is interlocked with a fall-protection safety apparatus and may be further interlocked with at least one additional safety apparatus. The aerial lift is equipped with a monitoring system that is configured to detect whether a connector of a safety line of the fall-protection apparatus appears to be connected to a safety harness of a user of the aerial lift.

Abstract: Techniques are described for monitoring and controlling fall protection equipment. For example, the techniques of this disclosure may be used to monitor the connection status of fall protection equipment, e.g., whether or not the fall protection equipment is connected to a support structure. The techniques described in the disclosure may determine whether the fall protection equipment is connected to a support structure based on changes in a resonant frequency of an electronic circuit of an inductive sensor within the fall protection equipment. The inductive sensor may be formed from sets of one or more coils, where a first set of one or more coils and a second set of one or more coils are wound in opposite directions.

Abstract: A fall-protection interlocking system for an access-controlled fall-risk area. The system includes a latch module installed at an entry gate of the area and a fall-protection apparatus installed at the area. The interlocking system further includes a monitoring system configured to send a positive signal to the latch module when the fall-protection monitoring system determines that a connector of a safety line of the fall-protection apparatus appears to be connected to a safety harness of a user. Upon receipt of the positive signal, the low-power-consumption latch module can unlatch the entry gate.
