Reticulated Cam Actuator
US Patent:
7708246, May 4, 2010
Filed:
Sep 9, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/222727
Inventors:
Brian C. Trask - Salt Lake City UT, US
International Classification:
A47L 3/04
US Classification:
2482319, 248925, 182 3
Abstract:
An actuator device operable to retract the cam elements of a spring-loaded camming device (SLCD) used in the sport of rock climbing. The actuator includes a remote finger and a remote thumb. The remote finger is mounted in a handle to permit translation of the remote finger along an axis, and rotation of the remote finger about that axis. In use, the remote finger can be rotated to present a narrow profile to pass between the trigger bar of a SLCD and a wall of a crack. Subsequent to its insertion behind the trigger bar, the remote finger can be rotated by about 90 degrees to capture the trigger bar. Then, the remote finger and remote thumb can be urged toward each other, effective to squeeze the SLCD and rotate its cam elements, to effect removal of the SLCD from the confines of the crack.
Actuator For Camming Devices
US Patent:
2003010, Jun 5, 2003
Filed:
Dec 3, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/309666
Inventors:
Brian Trask - Salt Lake City UT, US
International Classification:
A63B029/02
US Classification:
182/003000, 248/925000
Abstract:
A device to retract cams of spring-loaded camming devices (SLCD) used in rock climbing protection. The device includes a retraction mechanism operable on the SLCD and a control interface to receive input from a climber's hand. A linkage of variable length is disposed between the retraction mechanism and the control interface. The linkage may be adjusted between a longer deployed length for cam retraction and a shorter length to facilitate transportation and storage of the device.
