US Patent 11524185 Closure system

A closure system for a line-engaging device is herein disclosed. The closure system comprises a latch for securing the line-engaging device in a closed position by engaging with one or more of a plurality of keepers in the device body. The configuration of the latch and the keepers is such that transition from a closed position of the closure system to an open position of the closure system may only occur following two or more actuations of the latch, this may reduce the probability of unintentional disengagement of a line or cable from the device.
