More Information
Summary:A harness for supporting a person working at height is disclosed. The harness includes a waist belt, a pair of leg loops and a ventral attachment assembly. The ventral attachment assembly includes a flexible structural component, typically a webbing loop that is secured to the waist belt, and that may be permanently sewn to form a lower bight within, and at least one upper bight that provides a connection point through which loads can be transferred into the waist band. The harness further includes one or a pair of link components, each being connected to a connecting piece and to at least one of the leg loops. The component or components are capable of acting in tension to transfer load from the waist and/or leg loops to the ventral attachment assembly.
