Abstract

A mobile mount for attachment of a fall arrest system is provided for example for aircraft and includes a base carried on ground wheels and a support which is adjustable in height upstanding from the base and an arm cantilevered over the base. At least one receptacle is mounted on the arm of the support at a position located over the base for attachment to a personal fall arrest system including a harness for one or more persons, with the receptacle, base and support being designed and arranged to receive a loading from the personal fall arrest system sufficient to accommodate a fall of the person from the elevated structure.

Claims (19)

1. Apparatus comprising:

a base carried on ground wheels for movement over a ground surface to an elevated structure on which one or more persons is intended to work;

a support upstanding from the base having an upstanding support portion extending from the base to an elevated position above the base and an arm assembly extending from the upstanding support portion to a position cantilevered over the base;

the upstanding support portion being adjustable in height from the base;

and at least one receptacle mounted on the arm assembly of the support at a position located over the base for attachment to a personal fall arrest system including a harness for said one or more persons;

the receptacle, base and support being designed and arranged to receive a loading from the personal fall arrest system sufficient to accommodate a fall of the person from the elevated structure.
2. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein there are at least two receptacles carried on the arm assembly each for receiving the personal fall arrest system of a respective one of two separate persons.
3. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein the at least one receptacle is mounted so as to allow side to side movement of the receptacle relative to the base.
4. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein the base includes a hitch by which the base can be moved to the elevated structure by a towing vehicle.
5. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein there is provided a ladder carried on the support for the person to ascend to the elevated structure from the ground, which ladder can extend with the extension of the upstanding support portion.
6. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein there is provided a platform at a top of the ladder extending from the top of the ladder outwardly over the base.
7. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein the support arm assembly is arranged such that the at least one receptacle is cantilevered generally over a mid line of the base.
8. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein the at least one receptacle is carried on a rail mounted on the support arm assembly so as to extend along midline of base.
9. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein the or each receptacle is designed to receive a load of at least 1800 pounds.
10. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein there are two receptacles and the support arm assembly carrying the two receptacles is arranged to support a load of at least 2000 pounds.
11. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein the or each receptacle comprises a loop for receiving a hook of the personal fall arrest system.
12. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein the upstanding support portion is arranged along one side of base and the support arm assembly extends from the upstanding support portion so as to be cantilevered therefrom across the base.
13. The apparatus according to Claim 13 wherein use upstanding support portion comprises a pair of posts spaced apart along the side of the base.
14. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein the upstanding support portion includes a cross rail between the posts.
15. The apparatus according to Claim 13 wherein there is provided a lader between the posts for the person to ascend to the elevated structure from the ground.
16. The apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein the upstanding support portion includes a ladder with side rails and transverse rungs for the person to ascend to the elevated structure from the ground and wherein there is a post attached to an upper end of each side rail with the at least one receptacle mounted on a top of at least one of the posts.
17. The apparatus according to Claim 16 wherein the post is inclined forwardly of an upper end of the side rail to cantilever the receptacle in front of the ladder.
18. The apparatus according to Claim 16 wherein there is provided a platform between rails at the top of the ladder for the person to step onto the elevated structure.
19. The apparatus according to Claim 16 wherein there are two ladders each including side rails and transverse rungs for the person to ascend to the elevated structure from the ground and wherein there is a post attached to an upper end of each side rail with a transverse beam extending between the ladders and carrying the at least one receptacle.
