Patent attributes
A fall protection device is used to connect with a safety belt, including a frame having a receiving space, a shaft disposed on the frame, a decelerating member connected to the shaft and disposed in the receiving space, and a safety belt base fitted around the decelerating member. An outer peripheral surface of the decelerating member has a plurality of friction surfaces arranged at intervals. The safety belt base has an outer peripheral surface adapted to be wrapped by the safety belt and an inner peripheral surface being in contact with the friction surfaces thereof. With the design describing above, the friction surfaces rub the inner peripheral surface to generate a rolling friction, thereby to slow down an unwound speed of the safety belt.
